Rupert Murdoch Privately Predicts A Landslide Biden Win
TPM ^ | 10/15/2020 | Zoe Richards

Media magnate Rupert Murdoch has predicted privately that Democratic nominee Joe Biden will defeat President Donald Trump in the presidential election in a landslide victory, the Daily Beast reported Thursday.

-snip-

Murdoch has appeared to enjoy unhindered access to the White House, but has not spoken with Trump lately — at least for several weeks, sources confided to the Daily Beast — after Murdoch grew tired of Trump’s unending grievances about negative coverage from Fox News.

Murdoch has griped about Trump in the past, suggesting in a tweet ahead of the 2016 presidential election that then-candidate Donald Trump had been “embarrassing his friends and “the whole country.”

A Murdoch executive told the Daily Beast that Murdoch grew increasingly frustrated with Trump last winter, and at that time had even considered backing then-Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg, whom he had pushed for a presidential run four years prior.

Murdoch supports Murdoch. Other than that, there’s no loyalty to anyone.

Wow.

If true, it is time for Republicans to dump Fox.

These so called “intellectuals” never seem to learn. It’s 2016 all over again.

PODS lined up in front of 1600 already. I hear Trump isn’t going to wait until 1/20/2021 and just go ahead and peacefully hand over the codes on 11/4. NOT!

Is it possible to outlaw out-of-state money given to state candidates? If a state legislature passed such a bill and it became law, would it be Constitutional? Just curious...

Do they have any quotes from Murdock or are they all from “sources “?

Rupert is 89 years old. He should worry about his next move to “a windowless 2x2x6 basement apartment.

He lives in a world of FAKE polls.

He “lost” his fastball 10 years ago.

If true, he certainly has allowed the NY Post to run with the Biden story and there is some coverage on FNC as well.

Money...it’s all money and ratings driven.

Really, Biden is hiding in a hole right now. Trump is going to send in Federal Marshals after the election to bring him in to court. “President Trump sends his regards”

This October Surprise is devastating.
