CNN Covers for Biden-in-the-Basement: a 'Concerted Strategy'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 10/21/2020 3:58:42 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Journalists seem to have no interest in just why Joe Biden's handlers have so frequently called "lids" on his campaigning in this final stretch, and totally pulled him out of public view for virtually this entire week.

Nope: in fact, it's a carefully calculated strategy. Joe Biden is a brilliant, modern-day Sun Tzu, adopting his maxim to not interfere when your enemy is destroying himself.

At least, that's the explanation of Biden's disappearing act . . . if you believe CNN.

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Not one word was breathed by the panel about Biden’s, about his, his, you know, the thing.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Yeah, I believe that, or more likely the Biden campaign realized that every time opens his mouth he loses voters.

Similar strategy worked great for Hillary. May Joe have similar results with it.

If it works out, Joe can be writing his own ‘What Happened’ book in a few weeks.

Jimmy Carter emploed a “Rose Garden” strategy to beat Ted Kennedy in the primaries. He was busy looking presidential and working on the Hostage Crisis. That got old by the fall, and he had to change course. That didn’t work either.

There is a singularly appropriate word for people who believe the DNC PROPAGANDA from the CORRUPT “NEWS” NETWORK, AKA: CNN = STUPID.

Yours, TMN78247

One possible reason that Biden makes only limited appearances: the software that builds the hologram image is based on Windows ME, and it can only go long before the Windows box blue-screens.

If they were interested in even pretending to be real journalists, they would be questioning what the heck a “lid” is, whose idea it was, and how the Democrat Party thinks it can get away with it.

Biden is going to underperform Hillary in the raw popular vote. I am making that prediction right now.

You can’t win votes if you don’t go out and earn them.

It should be a concrete strategy.

Harris had a “rally” in NC today. A roaring crowd of about 12 people were there. Her rally had only 6,000 views on youtube. Pence had a rally in NH today and had 300 people and 60,000 views on FOX youtube channel.

Living in North Carolina, I’d been hoping to cover the Harris event for NewsBusters. But the media repeatedly said there were no details, until after it was over. I’m convinced the Biden campaign wants to keep her, and Joe, out of sight.

If he is so confident in his drive in rally strategy, why stop? It shows he has no support and most people who vote for him are really voting against Trump.
