CNN's Jake Tapper expresses doubt about a Biden victory in November
Fox News ^ | MARCH 11, 2020 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

Posted on 03/11/2020 3:56:19 PM PDT by Hojczyk

While many talking heads at liberal mainstream media outlets have suggested that former Vice President Joe Biden is poised to defeat President Trump in the general election later this year, CNN anchor Jake Tapper suggested otherwise, comparing Biden's candidacy to John Kerry's against President George W. Bush.

During Tuesday night's election coverage, Tapper made the case why Sen. Bernie Sanders I-Vt., would remain in the race as he later indicated that he would the next day, since he is a "stronger debater" than Biden and will attempt to prove he's a stronger candidate at the upcoming debate.

Then he drew comparisons between this election cycle and the 2004 election cycle.

"To be completely frank, I'm getting real 2004 vibes tonight, which is the Democrats want to beat an incumbent Republican so badly, Democratic voters I mean, that they decide which one is electable and they decide which one is electable," Tapper explained, "And they decide, 'OK, it's John Kerry,' or in this case it's Joe Biden. There's a huge coalescing on that person, they want to end the primary process as soon as possible and they basically coronate this person."

He continued, "Now, what did we learn in the last few weeks: Mark McKinnon, former George W. Bush adviser told me that, actually, they feared Howard Dean more because Howard Dean, even though he was less predictable, there was a starker difference Howard Dean and George W. Bush and he was drawing much bigger crowds than John Kerry was able to."

Now wherever did they get such an outlandish idea from?

CNN anchor Jake Tapper suggested otherwise, comparing Biden’s candidacy to John Kerry's against President George W. Bush.

He only just figured it out?
Only difference between now and 2004 is, Trump will really smash Biden. Bush was not a real fighter. Trump is the best Republican fighter we've had in modern times.

Partner, President Donald J. Trump is a real street fighter and I do not see anybody on the Communist/Socialist party beating out President Trump.

You are correct in that W. was not a fighter.

The Rat party has not figured this out about President Trump and they will never figure it out.

Yes, at the assisted care place--the Biden mansion ----watching the debate on television between irrational fantasies and tirades. Complaining about the Cream of Rice being too spicy.

For the past year or more I have been saying Michelle O or Hillary. My nightmare of course.

God bless and protect President Trump.

I kind of wonder if he’ll be alive in October...

He has seemed to slide noticeably in recent months.

And then there's the talk of his V.P. pick. That right there
should be cause for concern.

One of those picks is known to be pretty hard on team members.

“”that they decide which one is electable and they decide which one is electable,” Tapper explained,””

Well, son of a gun - You’ll have to explain that one to me, Jake! No wonder the dems don’t know if they’re afoot or horseback!

Sleepy Joe won’t be able to withstand the hurricane named Trump. But, we can’t get too confident, we have to all get out there and vote.

Biden, regardless of who his VP choice is and regardless of the the Corona cootie, Trump will be reelected.

If CV was concocted by the Chinese and or deep state/globalist to derail Trumps reelection and this economy, they will fail yet again.

Jake is doing his part in setting the table for the DNC and their eventual replacement of Biden after Bernie is disposed of.

They were asleep at the heel in 2016. They believed there was no way Trump could be POTUS.
2018 with all the “ found “ ballots for dem wins was a trial run. No one is talking about the 44 thumb drive found in Dallas county Texas that arrived past the deadline Super Tuesday 2020.
Double all efforts starting now.

Doubt Jake? It’s a certainty. Biden will be crushed like a bug.
