The Democrat Press

Maybe CNN should quarantine Acosta for foolish comments "At some point, CNN will have to make a tough decision regarding Jim Acosta.  Unfortunately, he keeps making a fool of himself and dragging the network down as well.
"This is the latest from "The Acosta Show":
CNN chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta's latest report has been labeled "idiotic" and a "'so what?' moment" by critics who feel it's simply the liberal network's latest attempt to weaponize coronavirus against President Trump.
Acosta's story headlined, "Source: Trump is concerned about coming into contact with people infected with coronavirus," cited a single source "close to" the president who said Trump is uneasy after coming into contact with a Brazilian official who tested positive for coronavirus. The Brazilian president also later tested positive for the virus.
"Where is a psychiatrist when we really need him?
"Like any rational person, President Trump is concerned about coming into contact with a person carrying the virus.  Isn't Jim Acosta also?
"Furthermore, the good news is that the public is daily passing judgment on "The Acosta Show" and CNN: "CNN's Ratings Collapse In 2019"!
"What's going on?  Maybe there is too much Acosta at CNN."

Is Biden serious or is he UNserious as a candidate?

Andrew Thomas blogs at Dark Angel Politics
Joe Biden is an unserious candidate for president  ""Joe Biden has proven himself to be one of the oddest Democratic political candidates, surpassing even Bernie Sanders in outrageousness.   His defenders claim he is of sound mind and that his critics are attacking him with baseless accusations.   But Biden, the self-proclaimed "gaffe machine," can't seem to make a single reasonable and well thought out speech without a verbal blunder.   Below is just a sampling of some of the peculiar comments he has made, showing that he is not a serious candidate in the election.
"Last year, he tweeted a picture showing his friendship bracelet with "Joe" and "Barack" written in square beads, with the tweet reading, "Happy #BestFriendsDay to my friend, @BarackObama."   Apparently, Barack isn't a good enough friend to endorse Joe for his presidential race.
In one especially disturbing speech, he rambles on about his "hairy legs."   . . .
. . . "Biden's poor grasp of numbers can be seen as far back as 1987, when he arrogantly claimed to a questioner that "I think I probably have a much higher IQ than you do."   He continued by saying, "The first year in law school I decided I didn't want to be in law school and ended up in the bottom two-thirds of my class and then decided I wanted to stay and went back to law school and in fact ended up in the top half of my class."   But rather than the top half of his class, he graduated 76th out of 85." . . .


Flop Sweat: Democrats try to assure Bernie voters that Biden's practically the same

Monica Showalter  "Bernie-ites are furious at how this whole election has been going. They were determined to see that this election, unlike the last one, in 2016,  not be rigged.
The sentiment intensified when they practically had the nomination in their hands, post-Iowa and post-New Hampshire just a couple weeks ago. Their victory dance was at hand. They almost had it. Then two days before Super Tuesday, all of a sudden, most Democratic rival candidates dropped out, nearly all at once, the better to consolidate behind jurassic old Joe Biden, who doesn't even know which state he's in. It had the look of rigging again, and this time in a different way. Democrats know seven ways to Sunday how to rig elections.
"So now, via Weaselzippers, we are seeing things like this: . . ."

Bernie you, not Joe will always be loved in Portland.

Biden ad fact-checked: Campaign gets ‘four Pinocchios’ over video ‘trickery’


"An online campaign ad from former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign earned four Pinocchios in a Washington Post fact-check, which said the ad engaged in "video trickery"
 to omit parts of quotes and leave out context in an effort to make President Trump look bad.

The fact-check from the paper on the Biden ad, which was posted to Twitter, also renewed criticism of Twitter for what the Trump campaign says is politically targeted enforcement of its policies by the social media giant. It sent a scathing letter to Twitter earlier this week after the company labeled one of its videos "manipulated media."

The slickly edited video, which Biden tweeted on Super Tuesday, contrasts Biden's message of "hope over fear" against a litany of claims and comments Trump has made over the years. The Post took issue with the Biden campaign's presentation of two of those moments in particular -- a Trump quote on the coronavirus and one on the American dream.

Washington Post fact-checker: Biden ad hitting Trump uses 'video manipulation'
"The Washington Post's fact-checker column awarded four Pinocchios to former Vice President Joe Biden on Friday for a campaign ad that creates "a false narrative that does not reflect the event as it occurred."
 "The column said the video manipulation distorts President Trump's remarks about the coronavirus.
 "The campaign ad says Trump referred to the coronavirus as "a hoax" at a campaign rally in South Carolina last month, but Washington Post fact-checker Meg Kelly called the editing of the president's remarks a "blatant" misrepresentation. " . . .
