Although Jill made light of the interaction and Goldberg tried to move on, Biden repeatedly interrupted, ultimately using the occasion to promote his own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/a-border-threat-so-taboo-that-few-dare-speak-of-it\/\" title=\"A Border Threat So Taboo That Few Dare Speak Of It\">forthcoming book<\/a> set to release in September.<\/p>\n<p>The incident is taking place as some Democrats say the Bidens\u2019 post-White House media appearances are reigniting politically damaging debate over Biden\u2019s age following the 2024 election. Former Biden aide Meghan Hays suggested the couple is simply trying to sell books and get Jill\u2019s story out, but also warned that many Democrats would rather avoid returning to the age and election discussion. Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham echoed that sentiment, arguing Democrats should focus on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-to-appear-at-fox-news-town-hall-on-same-night-as-cnn-gop-debate\/\" title=\"Trump to attend Fox News town hall on same night as CNN GOP debate\">issues affecting voters<\/a> rather than being distracted by talk about books and the \u201cautopsy.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Former President<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/joe-biden\/\"> Joe Biden<\/a> briefly stole the spotlight from his wife, former first lady <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/jill-biden\/\">Jill Biden<\/a>, during a stop on her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/gov-cuomo-threatens-n-y-lawmaker-over-nursing-home-criticism\/\" title=\"Gov.
