WASHINGTON (AP) — Joe Biden entered the Democratic primary promising “from day one” to reject campaign cash from lobbyists.

“I work for you — not any industry,” he tweeted.

Yet hours after his April campaign kickoff, the former vice president went to a fundraiser at the home of a lobbying executive. And in the months since,he’s done it again and again.

The MSM has decided that Warren is their candidate.

I have no clue why—but that is the way _all_ of them are playing this.

(They probably don’t know either—they just do as they are told. :-) )

Once Trump gets Grey Beaver in a debate and forces her to explain why she claimed to be a Injun to get her Prof job it will be all over.

She will melt like a deer in the headlights.

“The MSM has decided that Warren is their candidate.”

no doubt about it ...

“I have no clue why—but that is the way _all_ of them are playing this. (They probably don’t know either—they just do as they are told. :-) )”

i’m not sure why either ... the most logical explanation is that they (media and their Dem party subsidiary) know that Jo is mentally senescent, and if he gets the nomination that will be obvious during a presidential campaign, particularly during the presidential debates ... OTOH, it could simply be that the leftist powers-that-be want to roll the dice for an avowed ultra-leftist kommie ...

That is what is so scary about politics these days.

The elites choose their candidate, use the mass media to push them and rescue them as needed, and then try to slam dunk them down on the public.

Meanwhile we have no clue what the skeletons in the closet of the “chosen one” are (there must be _well_ hidden ones, otherwise blackmail would not work), nor do we have usable information on what the elites have in store for us and when they plan to do whatever it is they plan to do.

All we know for sure is the elites hate us and nothing good will come of any of it.
