Most of the mainstream media is now acting/pretending that Joe Biden is perfectly capable of taking up the Democrat banner against President Donald Trump in the general election. However, much of that same media not too long ago was MOCKING Biden for his lack of coherency. A notable honest exception is Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti of The Hill's Rising who mocked Biden earlier and are continuing to mock him.
PING!
B/c Mayor DeBlasio hungers for the job, was measured for it, and found to have several brain cells short of what's needed.
DeBlobbio must be sick with jealousy----he had the same opportunity----to get on TV 24/7 and hawk himself-----but DeBlobbio screwed up.
Blob's (cough) No 1 adviser, his wife, must be paying the price. She put her own political ambitions ahead of her husband's.
The media is a tool of manipulation.
They aren’t subtle. And more and more people see it.
The medias current propping up of an obviously addled Biden is the perfect rebuttal to their claims of objectivity.
“The medias current propping up of an obviously addled Biden is the perfect rebuttal to their claims of objectivity.”
Absolutely right. In a way it’s a gift because it is so obvious. MSM is protecting a guy with obvious dementia symptoms to be the President, probably the most mentally demanding job in the world. Yes they know Joe will just be a figure head but the fact that they will carry Slo Joe across the finish line says volumes.
Just a guess of course, but it appears the goal was to use Joe to remove Bernie from the running on Super Tuesday and then let Joe remove himself either before or at the Convention in Milwaukee so that their heretofore hidden golden boy/girl can waltz into the General Election season untarnished by the primary.
If this hypothesis is valid, it may mean that the Dem powers-that-be are still undecided as to whom their candidate will be.
Conceivably, Hillary is working behind the scenes...as is Cuomo. There might be others feverishly pulling strings and working the phones.
Sounds like--looks like--this might be the ultimate in smoky back rooms.
