Biden Team Rejects Campaign Reality, NY Times Changes Stance on Trump’s Bleach and COVID Advice
Journal of untrue information and risky beliefs
Here’s the statement:
“This campaign is in a strong position”
— Biden Deputy Campaign Manager Quentin Fulks, Monday
Our view: Really? With President Biden’s cognitive decline now public, Donald Trump has surged ahead in all swing states.
The liberal media — and even fellow Democrats — are calling for Biden to drop out of the race or face a landslide defeat.
Is that what Fulks considers a “strong position”?
In reality, the only place his campaign is thriving is in Biden Land.
Find the difference:
“I’m the guy who shut Putin down. Nobody thought we could do it.”
— Joe Biden, Friday
vs.
“Russia strikes a children’s hospital in Kyiv and other sites across Ukraine”
— NPR, Monday
Our view: It certainly takes audacity (or senility?) to claim victory in countering Russia’s Mad Vlad while he’s bombing children’s hospitals.
This accusation:
“The threat we face at the border isn’t from the migrants. It’s from the billionaires and politicians getting working people to point the finger at one another.”
— United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain, Sunday
Our view: Forget migrant crime. Or fentanyl, terrorists, overwhelmed cities . . . Forget even that migrants are taking jobs from union workers.
Fain, a supposed labor leader, seems so committed to Joe Biden and the left that he’s resorted to this absolute nonsense to downplay the migrant threat and dismiss voters’ completely valid concerns about the border. How shameless!
Find the difference:
“[Trump suggested] an ‘injection inside’ the human body with a disinfectant like bleach . . . could help combat the virus.”
— New York Times, April 24, 2020
vs.
“[Trump] did not instruct people to inject bleach.”
— New York Times, Saturday
Our view: When the Times withdraws its support for a candidate, as it’s now done with Biden, its reporting of the facts also changes.
Suddenly, the Gray Lady is fact-checking Biden: On Saturday, it called him out on the numerous lies he told in his interview with George Stephanopoulos.
This included not only Biden’s claim that Trump “told us to put bleach in our arms to deal with COVID,” a claim the Times echoed in 2020, but also the president’s lies about poll numbers, events he’s attended, Putin, Sen. Mark Warner and other issues.
