... Mike Pence! But, to be fair, his recent silence is about the best he can do with this old tradition...

What I find strange is, "Biden, who remains unpopular in public opinion polls..." I'm not sure he's THAT unpopular. He was the most popular politician in the USA in 2020. And Hillary is often mentioned as being unpopular. Remember, she was voted the most popular politician in the USA in 2016. And that was AFTER the big campaign admitted by Kevin McCarthy for Republicans and FOX ilk to "drive down her popularity" (paraphrasing). I don't think Biden is as "unpopular" as the media (the collective media) proclaims.
