Updated: Biden’s White House handlers thought better of campaigning while WWIII is about to break out in the Middle East and cancelled the Pueblo trip at the last minute Monday morning. 

It’s hard being the leader of the free world, especially when WWIII is about to break out in the Middle East and Americans have just been killed in Israel and taken hostage to Gaza.

But after one week of war, President Biden is taking a break from his hectic half-day schedules and headed to Colorado to campaign for reelection!

“Because as president, I have no higher priority than the safety of Americans being held hostage around the world,” Biden said just three days before resuming his campaign schedule.

Biden is heavily courting the union vote, so he’ll stop in Pueblo where presidential candidates last pandered in 2012.

“It’s great to welcome Mr. President to the Steel City, particularly as a president who is a long-time champion of unions and working people,” said Pueblo County Democratic Party Chair Bri Buentello.

This will mark Biden’s fifth campaign trip to Colorado to passively aggressive remind Gov. Polis that Democrats don’t want any challengers to upset Biden’s winning streak of destroying the economy, the culture, and losing wars.

Biden is expected to visit a wind turbine plant, which should remind voters that his wild spending spree of Bidenomics to fund private commercial business is the reason our economy is still inflated.

No one from the state’s congressional delegation, on either side of the aisle, is expected to appear with Biden.

Expect wall-to-wall media coverage. Unless he falls going up the stairs, again like he did Friday at a campaign event in Philadelphia and at his last event in Colorado.

Nearly 30 Americans were killed in the surprise attack on Israel by Palestinian Hamas. Biden spoke to the families of those held hostage in Gaza via Zoom, but the State Department has refused to say how many Americans are hostages. At least 15 Americans are unaccounted for.
