Chris Cuomo says the Biden Administration’s continued non-answers to questions about an apparent exchange between Hunter Biden and his Chinese Communist Party-connected business partner are stirring up “blood in the water” in the press, while severely weakening the president’s re-election chances.
“If he loses, we’re going to talk about this reason: It’s not the crime, it’s the cover-up,” Cuomo said Friday night on his News Nation show “Cuomo.” “And as we saw today again, the president and his administration [are] on a collision course with the truthiness of this adage.”
Cuomo quoted from a WhatsApp message that surfaced last week as part of a whistleblower’s testimony to Congress, in which the president’s son starts by saying he’s sitting with his father, who has maintained for years no involvement with his son’s business dealings. The message threatens a “grudge” within his realm of influence if the business partner fails to fulfill a “commitment.”
Cuomo was shocked that White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre flatly deflected questions about the revelation to the administration’s general counsel (which has also not issued a statement), basically telling reporters that she would not be answering that question.
**SNIP**
Cuomo said a Biden re-election campaign would not survive much longer on the strategy of stonewalling, comparing it to mounting pressure that ended the Nixon Administration.
“What I saw today is why he could lose the election,” he said. “You have to define the narrative. Is this a kill shot on Biden? Of course not. … It’s about how you handle it. And when you’re explaining in politics, you’re losing. And when you refuse to answer in politics, you are dying. … when you refuse to answer, they’re gonna keep coming. You think it’s going to go away? No way. Not when there’s blood in the water."

Disagree, although I credit Cuomo for speaking out on this issue on which the mainstream media has been strangely silent. It is the crime AND the coverup. The crime is the taking of multimillion dollar bribes from foreign governments and their affiliates to take certain governmental actions that may be detrimental to our citizens or their citizens. The ongoing coverup is that which was and is aided by the FBI and the Justice Department and which is continuing apace although I suspect it may soon start falling apart as midlevel government types have no interest in sacrificing their careers for low rent corrupt liars such as the Bidens.
Not saying anything about Hunter could cost Biden the election.
Lying about Hunter could cost Biden the election.
Telling the truth about Hunter will cost Biden the election.
Biden doesnt know it yet, but he is going to announce that he wont run again. The question is, who will be the Democrat nominee? Not pretty boy Newsom, could it actually be RFK Jr.?
Whatever furry little animal that is, he’s seen a lot of stuff he can’t un-see.
And yet, he never fails to keep his lipsless mouth shut.
Give him credit. He knows how to stay out of the line of fire.
“If he loses, we’re going to talk about this reason: It’s not the crime, it’s the cover-up,” Cuomo said...”
Being caught red-handed influence-peddling to the Chinese Communist Party and acting like a mafia thug is a great big problem. The cover-up is just part of the mosaic of total corruption. Biden should die in prison for what he has done and his derelict son with him. Merrick Garland and numerous DoJ and FBI trash belong in prison too. Insrad of a new FBI building, we need a new supermax prison to incarcerate them all.
Hard to believe Fredo is still around.
Enough is getting out early enough for Biden not to get the nomination, which means the Dems will still have a clear shot to the White House again.
Insrad = instead...
Chris Coumo is corrupt as is the Biden corruption syndicate. Oddly he bears Joe Biden no ill will. The power brokers of the DNC have decided that Biden must go. Thus Coumo puts the knife in the back of Joe. It is nothing personal but just business.
They always did it doesn’t matter who they run. How they count the votes that matters
Is he speaking up, or is he following orders to start the ball rolling on Biden’s removal? They have to gauge their minions’ emotional investment first, then work from there.
Newsom and Hillary probably both think they have a chance. They could go for another governor--Whitmer or Shapiro (but they may be unwilling to nominate a Jew because that would cost them votes from some of their core constituencies). Maybe some other governor. But they may have to put a black person on the ticket for VP if they get rid of Kamala.
Stacey Abrams is still available, and AOC will be old enough to be elected by 2024.
Must be because it’s ok for the liberals to turn on Biden.
I thought Fred had gone fishing.
The sharks are starting to circle around Biden.
Probably the Kerry - Edwards ticket in 2004, will be the last Democrat ticket ever with two heterosexual white men.
Given the Democrats desire to celebrate diversity and all of that, there must be diversity on the presidential ticket. It’s not optional.
So if Newsome gets the nod, his running mate must be a member of a grievance group. And if his running mate is a woman and a member of an ethnic or racial minority then they get to check off two boxes of the diversity scoreboard.
Chris who?
