SMERCONISH: “Then came last Saturday night. At a star-studded Los Angeles fundraiser, this time, the first video that went viral recorded by The Hollywood Reporter’s Christopher Gardner seemed to show President Obama rescuing a frozen President Biden. This, too, shown on a loop. And once again, then we got to see additional angles of what happened. They depicted the president standing still basking in the glow of a supportive crowd perhaps until Obama signaled it was time to go. The video from the L.A. fundraiser has become an election Rorschach test. Republicans, they see frailty. Democrats, they see friendship.”
