F Joe is panicked by bad polls. His admin has kicked off a PR campaign to spin every issue as a success, no matter how implausible the explanation.
My theory is that the Obama retreads became used to the media being able to cover for them and to trumpet anything even remotely positive as being a triumph. This is because a substantial part of the populace was duped into thinking that he was brilliant, transformative, eloquent, etc. the hacks expect the media to be able to do the same magic for them now, but Bidens decline is so evident, and his failures so colossal, whitewashing just isn’t possible
