Tapper blasts Democrats' Orwellian tactics trying to convince public to 'not believe what you saw' at debate
FOX News ^ | 7/2/2024 | Alexander Hall

Posted on 07/02/2024 10:27:17 AM PDT by 1Old Pro

CNN host Jake Tapper accused Democratic officials of using Orwellian tactics to spin President Biden’s debate performance.

Tapper co-moderated last week's presidential debate, which was widely seen as a disastrous night for Biden. Many Democrats and liberals in the media have called for the president to step down and be replaced with another nominee. As for the Democrats still defending Biden, Tapper argued they are disingenuously downplaying or ignoring signs of the president's age-related decline.

Lenin looks more life like than Biden at this point but CNN made him look even worse.

If you have ever seen some of the TV personalities face to face you really begin to realize just how sophisticated and effective these media people are at making some really unattractive people look way better on screen than they actually look in person. .

I wouldn’t give him that much credit. He thinks Biden will take down the radical progressive movement for at least four years.

He's right about that, but Biden can't win.

This from the same POS that knowingly and purposely hid the truth for years... means absolutely nothing.

Tapper, and almost all of the MSM, saw Biden destroy himself and what was left of their credibility. It was basically a political version of murder-suicide.

Most in the media should be ashamed of themselves, but they take their leftist activism seriously.

How could his debate disaster be anyone else’s fault? Candidate
Joe Biden has been debating public issues for half a century.
<><>He ran six times for the Senate,
<><>he’s now on his fourth run for president —
<><>not to mention two veep runs,
<><>including his epic 2012 debate slapdown of Paul Ryan.

Jill Biden running to Vogue to get herself on the cover
actually thought this would mitigate Joe’s debate disaster?

Jill blathering in Vogue about how she guides him in making
policy decisions is enough to give the citizenry nightmares.

The power-crazed drjill self-servingly connived to get a Vogue
cover feature that would “boost” demented Joe? No frickin’ way.

“sophisticated and effective these media people are at making some really unattractive people look way better on screen than they actually look in person.”

That is particularly true for older people who are on the air—and need the help.

However I have been stunned by the raw beauty of some young media women in person. Video does not do them justice.

no it wouldn’t, because it would either be thought to be edited, or they just rolled him out on one of his few “good” days.

Nothing can undo what was seen

My pastor said Biden looked just like his own dad...six months before he went to the nursing home.

His “good days” are scripted and all done with a teleprompter.

Biden is not capable of forming a coherent, cogent and intelligible thought when it is to be done without any aid other than his pudding brain.

Having been around dementia patients, they do have “good” days where they are more or less back to their old selves. The issue is as things degrade those come less and less often and then no longer at all.

I would say Joe in my opinion is probably ok half the time, so it was a 50-50 chance they took putting him on that stage. In fact if the debate had been an hour later, he might have gotten away with it.

Biden isn't well. Not a single thinking person should vote for him, not one.

Tapper used to be a spokesperson for Hooters before he became a JINO (journalist in name only). If there’s one thing he knows, it’s boobs, whether they are in your face serving you cheese fries or behind a debate podium serving you gibberish

“ Look at the way CNN cleverly played with the lighting to make Biden look pasty and old during the debate.”

Usually, the propaganda media plays with the lighting to make Trump look orange. Neither his face nor his hair has ever been orange.

Something tells me Tapper knows Trump is winning which makes it wise to start morphing right. After years of laughable lies he has the balls to put on the facade of a serious unbiased journalist. If his previous lies weren’t so blatant he wouldn’t have to do this.

"...all of these concerns about Biden’s mental state could be immediately put to rest if Biden were to hold a 2 hour press conference and answer any and all questions."

Why do I have the feeling that we are being set up? I thought they were going to bring a ringer in for the debate. Maybe they will in he next one.
