The Biden campaign has just taken its boomer credentials to a new level.
Monday marked the first night of the Republican National Convention, and yes, it packed a lot of falsehoods into its few hours. But before it decided to get to the facts in a Tuesday email, Democratic nominee Joe Biden's campaign first took a detour to a place no one needed it to go: a low-effort parody of Simon & Garfunkel.
The pitiful spin on The Boxer doesn't do much to help Biden correct the record on anything Republicans said Monday night, but it does serve as an unfortunate reminder of Paul Simon's 2016 Democratic National Convention performance.
