A Sordid Conspiracy to Deceive the American Electorate
Townhall.com ^ | October 23, 2020 | David Limbaugh

Have we ever witnessed a stranger anomaly in modern presidential politics than the craven contempt the Biden campaign, the media and social media have shown for the American electorate in their disgraceful conspiracy to hide Joe Biden?

What bona fide presidential candidate would arrogantly hide in his basement during the heat of a campaign, especially in the last few weeks of an ever-tightening one?

If the liberal media weren't providing Biden cover, he couldn't get away with this. If they were even raising questions about his intentional invisibility, this campaign would look far different, and far less surreal.

As President Donald Trump has hopscotched the country, traveling thousands of miles to appear at vigorous, humongous campaign rallies, Biden and his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris, are nowhere to be found. We've never had a presidential candidate virtually opt out of the campaign.

Please don't use the virus as an excuse, unless you're willing to point out that Trump has been fearlessly campaigning for reelection with a rigorous schedule that would exhaust most 30-year olds, while Biden is acting like an old man with no interest in engaging with the public or the media. And he seeks to be leader of the free world? Then again, when Biden has surfaced, he's failed to draw a Sunday school-sized crowd.

Never has a presidential candidate taken the voters for granted like this. Hillary Clinton declined to visit the swing state of Wisconsin after April 2016, but that is nothing compared with Biden's ghosting of the entire electorate throughout the campaign.

Even candidates who believed they were comfortably ahead have never hidden from view like this to run out the clock. They all believed enough in the superiority of their agenda that they wanted to make their case to the people.

Moreover, what other presidential candidate has refused to provide his position on key issues, including whether he would pack the Supreme Court? When has any other candidate haughtily waved off questions of debate moderators and reporters with the sophomoric dodge that, "Trump just wants you to focus on this issue (instead of what an SOB he is)"?

Adding insult to injury, when has the media ever let any candidate off the hook like this, which is a scandal of unprecedented proportions? Obviously, the media disrespects the electorate as much as the Biden campaign does.

If anything is indisputably the media's job, it is to bring out the candidates' positions on important issues, and packing the Supreme Court and the Biden scandals are exceedingly important -- and relevant -- issues. What would the media's reaction be if Trump refused to answer such questions?

The media dutifully promoted the canard that the Russians -- yes, the Russians again -- were behind the emails found on Hunter Biden's laptop. But how will these crooked conspirators explain away the bombshell revelation of Hunter's former business partner, Tony Bobulinski, that the "big guy" referred to in Hunter's email is Joe Biden himself? How will they handle Bobulinski's assertion that Joe Biden was offered 10% interest in a Chinese business deal?

But for my money, even these cover-ups don't hold a candle to the media's scandalous concealment of Joe Biden's declining mental acuity. In his current state, Biden clearly is not fit for office, yet the media ignores it while raising bogus questions about the uncannily vibrant Trump's capacity. Reality has finally trumped George Orwell's imagination.

Where is the perennial finger-wagger Bob Woodward when you need him?

The American public knows everything there is to know about Trump, as they've scrutinized every molecule of his being and business dealings and dug up every conceivably negative morsel about him during the last four years.

To complete the trifecta, we've watched the leftist social media giants conspire with the Biden campaign and the media to stack the deck in Biden's favor. When the New York Post first reported on the Hunter Biden emails that implicated Joe Biden, Facebook and Twitter actively buried the story -- preventing users from sharing it with other users, invoking the specious excuses that the story violated a hacked-materials policy and was unsubstantiated. Nice try.

So, here we are, less than two weeks from the most important election of our lifetimes -- and millions of voters have been shielded from the agenda of this Democratic duo to radically transform America into a socialist hellhole with 70 genders, major tax increases on most taxpayers, a federally engineered war on law enforcement and law and order, open borders, increased regulations, the horrors of the Green New Deal (including a gutted domestic energy industry), and scores of other policies the majority of Americans would reject if the Democrats' positions were made known to them.

Don't fool yourselves. This liberal trio knows the American electorate is still basically conservative and would never knowingly elect someone with such a radical agenda, which is why it will continue trying to deceive voters until Nov. 3.

Like some FReepers have said, the democrat path to power is not about convincing the electorate, it’s about cheating the electorate. I doubt Biden would even live long enough to finish his term. He doesn’t look good at all.

My early local news (NBC affiliate) covered it for the first time this morning. They showed the Bobulinski presser from last night and that twitter/facebook were being subpoenaed for suppressing the story.
I was shocked.

Conspiracy is exactly what it is...straight out of Rat Party Headquarters.It's a conspiracy just as brazen as the one in ‘16 with the major difference that they're not even trying to hide it this year. It reminds one of the great line from Richard Pryor when his wife caught him with another women: “who are you gonna believe,me or your lyin’ eyes?”

The media is not going to change. There will not be a reverse Watergate. Ever. Conservatives need to get past that. Even if the media did turn on their own, the Left in politics would just ignore it. They are not going to experience shame.

The only way they will ever face any consequences is for the Justice Department of a Republican administration to prosecute them in the face of fierce media opposition.

Until that happens, if it ever happens, conservatives need to fight for the ability to use social media in order to get their message out. There is no alternative. Soon, we will be showing old people how to use the dark web to read Breitbart.

Thought you folks might like this hilarious anti-Biden campaign ad:


"Weekend at Biden's"

Hahahaha...every time the head of the ostensibly dead Biden rolls to the side, it ends up buried in some woman's hair...:)

I made the mistake of watching that right before bed last night. I had to stop laughing to get some sleep!

The screen capture is of one of the funniest parts, and I think even she was having trouble keeping a straight face!

“Stop.”

“Stop!”

In years ahead, I will likely go back to this one over and over again...:)
