‘Stupidest Sh*t Ever’: Charlamagne tha God Says He Gets Blowback from White House When Criticizing Biden

Radio host Charlamagne tha God revealed that the White House has been giving him grief for publicly criticizing Joe Biden, which he said was “the stupidest shit ever.”

The “Breakfast Club” radio personality claimed that Biden was an “uninspiring candidate” with “no ‘main character’ energy at all” and suggested he rely more on Vice President Kamala Harris, whom he called “more charismatic.”

“Well, he’s, he’s just an uninspiring candidate, like…there’s nothing about…Joe Biden that makes you want to listen to him,” he told ABC “This Week” co-anchor Jonathan Karl on Sunday.

“He should be leaning on people who have — are more inspiring than him, who are more charismatic than him. And he should just be, I guess, if you want to call it ‘the brains’ of the operation behind the scenes. Like, that sounds crazy that we’re saying that about a president of the United States of America, but…he has no ‘main character’ energy at all. None.”

When asked if he gets blowback from the White House for calling out Biden, Charlamagne replied, “Yeah. And I think that’s the stupidest shit ever.”

“Because I think that…because I feel like you should be able to criticize whoever your elected official is, right?” he said.

“And even [if] I do criticize them, I’m criticizing them because of what I see coming up in November,” he continued. “I see what we’re facing. So what I’m saying to them, ‘Where is the sense of urgency?’” he continued. “You can’t keep saying that there’s a, a threat to democracy, and democracy as we know it is going to be, be gone, but not act like it.”

He also said Harris should play more of a prominent role in Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign because she’s a woman of color.

“I think that right now, you know, historically vice presidents have always kind of played their role,” he said. “Their role is to just basically parrot the president, you know, speak, you know, on behalf of the president. But I think, man, we’re in a new era, right? Like, like for new jack problems. We need new jack solutions. And she serves a unique purpose, right?”

“Because she is the first woman of color in that position. So, it’s things that she could talk about. There are things that she could say that I feel like, you know, he can’t,” he added.

He also said that although the GOP led by Trump represents a “threat to democracy”, the Democrat Party’s over-the-top rhetoric against Republicans are causing people to tune them out.

“They, they will demonize the Republican candidate. And now that there’s an actual legitimate threat right there in our faces, they’re like, they’re like the party who cried wolf. Nobody believes them,” he said.

This comes as several mainstream media polls show Trump leading Biden — and all the other viable Democrat alternatives — in a hypothetical 2024 matchup.
