At 9:00 a.m. Sunday morning, Joe Biden’s elder-abusing handlers called a “lid.” So, what’s new, you ask? Well, the “lid” is going to last until the final debate, scheduled for Thursday, October 22.
That’s right: The Democrat Party’s Unfrozen Caveman Candidate, plagued by dementia and scandal, is currently in the midst of a four-day “lid” just two weeks away from Election Day.
It’s the campaign that never was.
Meanwhile, while Creepy Uncle McWifeMolester was holed up in his basement hooked up to his handy IV, President Donald Trump campaigned in Nevada and California, where he drew massive crowds like this one just for driving down the street:
That’s in California, folks, the state in which Biden supposedly leads President Trump by 34 points in the media-sponsored polls. But you’re expected to believe without critical thought or comment that the man who draws crowds like this one everywhere he goes in this country is losing to the guy who regularly speaks to empty parking lots and junior high gymnasiums.
Yeah, that’s not happening.
Meanwhile, this is the caliber of person Quid Pro China Joe is sending out to represent him on the airwaves. – Watch as Fox News’s Leland Vittert, a rank Trump-hating liberal, eviscerates Biden surrogate Jenna Arnold about the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop on Sunday:
And there you have the real reason why Biden is going to spend the next four days hiding in his basement: His campaign has no earthly idea what to say about the graft and corruption already reported by the New York Post and Fox News, and Biden’s people know there is much, much more to come from that apparent treasure trove of depravity and crime.
Even worse, Biden’s corrupt toadies in the mainstream news media are also at a loss about how to defend their man on this, and have now decided to simply try to change the subject back to fear porn about the China Virus. Yes, friends, we are back to all China Virus all the time in our national and local news casts, with the focus being on a rising level of new “cases” because the death rate just keeps dropping, a fact that most Americans would applaud but the media hates because it is inconvenient to their preferred narrative.
If you believe that sudden, coordinated shift in focus by every media outlet in America is just the natural result of good news work, you may be extremely naïve. Perhaps fatally so.
All of which finally brings me to the point of this piece, which is that the President must boycott Thursday’s last debate. He must do this for several reasons:
First, the playing field for this debate is stacked against him to the point of abject absurdity. The “moderator,” NBC White House fake reporter Kristen Welker, is a lifelong Democrat whose parents have given tens of thousands of dollars to the Biden/Obama campaigns. She is one of the most ridiculously hostile and vapid members of the White House press corps, and the President should not legitimize her as a professional by allowing her to interrogate him and constantly interrupt him on Thursday.
The White House press corps should be abandoned and banned from the White House grounds as the enemies of the people that they are, not treated as if they were actual journalists.
Second, Welker’s chosen topics for this debate read like they were written for her by the Biden/Harris Harris/Biden campaign, which they probably were, come to think of it. Not a single question about the economy? Nothing on immigration? Nothing on the historic outbreak of Trump-brokered Middle East peace deals that have now seen him receive three Nobel Peace Prize nominations?
But Welker does plan to spend 10-15 minutes on “Climate Change” so she can pontificate about ‘science’ and stuff. Even worse, you know she will not spend one second demanding that Biden explain the influence racket he and his son were running out of the U.S. Naval Observatory while serving as Vice President.
Again, this approach is not something President Trump or any Republican should spend a single moment legitimizing with his presence.
Finally, the Commission on Presidential Debates needs to be blown up into a million pieces and scattered to the winds, and that has never been more obvious than it has become this year. The uniformly anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-Republican selections of “moderators” for this year’s debates is not really anything new, but the intensity of their obvious bias and hatred has risen to new heights.
Think about it: the Commission was so focused on tilting the playing field against the sitting POTUS that it selected one moderator who is actually a former intern for Biden. That moderator, C-Span’s Steve Scully, was so biased and dishonest that he literally disqualified himself and was suspended from his job for publicly lying to the country about his efforts to tilt the second debate.
Chris Wallace was so openly hostile to the President during the first debate that he actually spent more time debating Trump than Biden did. And now, President Trump is expected to just show up on Thursday and pretend that the Commission’s third selected Democrat activist, Welker, is somehow legitimate?
No. No, Mr. President, you must not do this. This farce, this DC Swamp Kabuki Theater pretense must come to an end. The feckless, useless Republican National Committee has allowed it to exist and demean its candidates for far, far too long.
This process must be destroyed for the good of this country, and if Donald Trump won’t do what is needed to achieve that goal, then who ever will?
The Commission on Presidential Debates must be destroyed. The time to do it is now. Just schedule a rally in Minnesota or Wisconsin or Pennsylvania for Thursday night and stop pretending any of this is legitimate.
Enough of this nonsense.
That is all.
The moderators all claim that they want to talk about issues, then harass Trump when he answers, and let's Biden get away with not answering the questions honestly. But trump can bring the pressure to Biden, and call him out. That's why the debate is important.
Yes. Mike Pence actually took a big step in that direction. The moderator would ask about Climate Change (or whatever) and Pence just calmly said, "I'll get to that, but I want to respond to what my opponent said about the Supreme Court …"
Pence covered what he wanted to cover, in his own good time.
President Trump does a fine job but Pence is no slouch and there are lessons to be learned from the VP debate.
The question is about BREXIT? "Thanks for asking about child pornography. I agree it's a problem. And while we're talking about Hunter Biden, let me just say …"
"Why are we talking about Covid for the 100th time ... why don't you ask Joe about the corruption in government that he has been involved in for the last 47 years? ... I'll tell you why you won't ask him, because you are in the tank for him, you are a totally biased moderator, and your objective tonight is to make me look bad and Sleepy Joe look good."
Then when the moderator interrupts him, Trump could say “To quote Kamala Harris, ‘I’m still speaking’“. I know that won’t hapoen, but I do want him to pivot away from discussions of DNC agenda topics like climate change. How many Americans really have climate change as a major concern?
“The Commission on Presidential Debates must be destroyed. The time to do it is now. Just schedule a rally in Minnesota or Wisconsin or Pennsylvania for Thursday night and stop pretending any of this is legitimate.”
Schedule a rally in Brooklyn for Thursday night. That will drive the libs nuts.
Actually, it would be stoopid. Pres Trump can say what he wishes, despite the questions.
I agree Climate Change is a waste of time. Trump needs to be armed with the facts about how under his administration things have gotten much cleaner and that China, the country giving Hunter billions, is still polluting.
According to Frank Fahrenkopf, the guy who runs the Commission of Presidential Debates, neither campaign has any say in how the debates are set up. The CPD makes all the decisions, without input from either campaign. The only thing agreed to is whether the candidates want to show up or not.
I am looking forward to Trump’s interview on WED night on the CW channel.
Disagree with the article. Trump needs to show up and repeatedly ask Biden: “Joe, I’ve seen confusing numbers, did you get 10% or 50%?”
Just keep asking Joe “10% or 50%?” He will go berserk!!!!
That was my first thought....especially since an online search found that the NC rally was announced two days prior.
Biden is gonna play cat and mouse until Election Day.
