I mean, point taken. But if Team Joe is semi-serious about some sort of “heal the nation” rapprochement with Republicans (which will never work, by the way), Hillary Clinton is the last person they should want Leeroy-Jenkins-ing her way into the effort.
President-elect Joe Biden s incoming deputy chief of staff, Jen O Malley Dillon, on Thursday walked back her comments referring to Republicans as a bunch of f -ers, Politico reported. I used some words that I probably could have chosen better, O Malley Dillon said about the comments she made earlier this week during a Glamour Magazine interview.
O Malley Dillon spoke to Glamour about the criticism hurled at President-elect Joe Biden on the campaign trail as he highlighted a need to restore civility in politics and to end partisan fighting. In the primary, people would mock him, like, You think you can work with Republicans? O Malley Dillon told Glamour. I m not saying they re not a bunch of f -ers. Mitch McConnell is terrible. But this sense that you couldn t wish for that, you couldn t wish for this bipartisan ideal? He rejected that.

Jen O’Malley Dillon, President-elect Joe Biden’s incoming White House deputy chief of staff, expressed regret over her explicit remarks about Republicans that GOP lawmakers pretended to be shocked and offended over.
In an interview with Glamour published Tuesday, O’Malley Dillon took aim at Republicans, who she sees as having brushed off Biden’s push for unity by impeding Democrats in virtually every way possible.
“In the primary, people would mock him, like, ‘You think you can work with Republicans?’ I’m not saying they’re not a bunch of fuckers. Mitch McConnell is terrible,” O’Malley Dillon told Glamour. “But this sense that you couldn’t wish for that, you couldn’t wish for this bipartisan ideal? He rejected that.”
