Putin, Xi, and the mullahs favor Biden over Trump   Well, duh... As do TV talk shows, Hollywood actors, Professors, Democrat members of Congress, purple-haired women soccer players and, well, anyone wanting "death to America!".

‘Never Biden’ Movement Growing Among Bernie Supporters  “ 'We will never – NEVER boost or support Joe Biden or defend his abysmal record and terrible policy positions' ”

In the 2016 election, a significant number of Bernie Sanders supporters either stayed home, voted for Jill Stein, or even voted for Trump. They didn’t like Hillary Clinton, and they felt betrayed by the Democratic party.  Something similar is already taking shape in the 2020 election.

Will Bernie push Biden even further left? [Answer: Oh yes indeedy]

Biden's pledge to impose a threshold requirement for the race and gender of the next nominee is troubling. Such an absolute requirement would be unconstitutional if used for the admission to a public college. Yet it would be used for admission to the Court that created that rule. Jonathan Turley

 Biden would make America dependent on foreign oil again  "He would also be bowing
down to OPEC like Obama did." . . . "Unfortunately, both Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders want to turn the clock back to the days of higher emissions and greater dependency on foreign oil. That is the certain practical result of the policies that both men outlined in their Sunday debate." .  .  .

Let's Talk About Joe Biden's Terrible, Economy-Destroying Ideas 
"During Sunday night's debate with Sen. Bernie Sanders, former Vice President Joe Biden promised to wreck the American energy industry. That would wreck the American economy. The Houston Chronicle reports:" . . .
. . . "The hard, cold fact is both of the remaining Democratic presidential candidates have said enough. They would: Keep the borders wide open in a time of global pandemic, crush American energy production, tax the you-know-what out of job creators, and thereby destroy what's left of our economy." . . .

Biden Goes Extreme: Give Oil Industry ‘No Ability’ To ‘Continue To Drill’, Take ‘Millions’ Of Cars Off The Road

Daily Wire  "Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden made extreme remarks during CNN’s presidential debate on Sunday night, suggesting that he would end the oil industry’s ability to drill, would ban new fracking projects, and would take millions of cars off the road.

“ 'No more subsidies for fossil fuel industry, no more drilling on federal lands, no more drilling including offshore, no ability for the oil industry to continue to drill,” Biden said. “Period. Ends.”

“No new fracking and, by the way, on the Recovery Act, I was able to make sure we invested $90 billion in making sure we brought down the price of solar and wind that is lower than the price of coal, that’s why not another new coal plant will be built,” Biden continued." . . .

Biden . . . Supports Taxpayer Funding of Abortion  . . . "The former vice president also reaffirmed that, if as president he gets to appoint a Supreme Court justice, he will appoint the first black woman. And he confirmed that he no longer opposes the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits federal funding of abortion except in cases of rape, incest, or when the mother’s life is endangered.

“ 'If I’m elected president my cabinet, my administration, will look like the country,” Biden said. “And I commit that I will in fact appoint a – I’d pick a woman to be vice president. There are a number of women who are qualified to be president tomorrow. I would pick a woman to be my vice president.' ”

Mainstream Media Reporters Spread Trump Quote Missing Vital Context About Wuhan Virus Response

Townhall

[NY] "Times reporter Julie Bosman defended sharing the quote out of context "because the second part of the quote repeats the first part, twice."

"Reporters from mainstream media outlets pushed a quote without providing vital context to how the federal government is helping the states while posting a New York Times story about President Trump's teleconference meeting with state governors and how they can respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, commonly known as the Wuhan virus or Chinese coronavirus.
"The issue was how one quote made it seem like Trump was telling state governors to fend for themselves to get respirators and ventilators for severe cases of COVID-19. Many of the reporters left out the second half of Trump's quote, where he stated, "We will be backing you, but try getting it yourselves. Point of sales, much better, much more direct if you can get it yourself."
"Trump's point was that if state governors can get respirators and ventilators themselves more quickly than going through the federal government, then they should do so. However, the federal government will be assisting in providing medical equipment.

"The controversy over half of the quote was asked during the White House's press briefing on Monday." . . .

"UPDATE! Just returned from 15 days on the border, from San Diego, Calif to Brownsville, TX. I droned and filmed all 23 new wall construction sites along the way. 50 hours of video taken onsite at over 80 locations. A huge undertaking. My video of entire Trump Wall will be published in one week on this channel. Watch for premier. The name of the video will be: "Trump Border Wall from Sea to shining Sea".

"During a trip to Arizona and New Mexico, I filmed the construction of new border wall being built east of Douglas, Arizona. An extremely impressive undertaking. This video hopes to remind viewers how incredibly innovative & productive our construction industry is. It reminded me of the Alaska Pipeline Project, in which I personally managed a small portion of. After the politics settle, our relationship with Mexico will dramatically improve, the environment will be just fine (as was the environment in Alaska post-project), the word "illegal" immigrant will be gone, and in its place increased & rejuvenating legal immigration:

Will the Coronavirus Defeat Trump’s Reelection?

You're talkin' to the next President kid!

Rachel Alexander  "Until the coronavirus outbreak, most conservatives were pretty confident President Donald Trump would get reelected. The economy was doing great, which is a good sign an incumbent president will win reelection. But the coronavirus may change things. We may end up in a recession. 
. . . 
"As a result, the extreme measures are hurting the economy and jobs. People are staying at home and avoiding travel and entertainment. Schools are shutting down. Retirees are losing their investments in stocks. Everyone has been affected to some extent. People panicking and overloading on supplies from grocery stores are making life difficult for others who can’t get the essentials like toilet paper. 
. . . "Trump didn’t cause the coronavirus. But he is being blamed for everything in regards to handling it. He’s done an excellent job despite the naysaying from Democrats and the mainstream media. He’s taking drastic action." . . .
. . . "Joe Biden attacked Trump’s handling of the crisis, then turned around and plagiarized Trump’s plan. This comes as no surprise, since Biden has a history of plagiarism. Tim Murtaugh, the communications director for the Trump campaign, said Biden raised the “vile conspiracy theory that the President purposely allowed the coronavirus to spread.” This is dishonest considering how aggressively Trump has moved to prevent that." . . .

Trump Sums Up Biden-Bernie Debate In One Tweet, Posts Brutal Biden Highlights

Daily Wire  "On Sunday, former Vice President Joe Biden and democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) faced off in their first one-on-one primary debate — a debate held with no audience in an attempt to curb the spread of coronavirus. While the rather surreal audience-less debate went over better than many of its more chaotic predecessors, and the left-leaning media celebrated it as “substantive,” the man that one of the two candidates on the stage Sunday will be going toe to toe with in November had a far different reaction.
"In a tweet Sunday night, Trump offered his summary of the CNN-hosted event followed by a series of retweets highlighting moments he wants to make sure his 74 million followers don’t miss.
"“I must say, that was a VERY boring debate,” Trump tweeted Sunday. “Biden lied when he said I want to cut Social Security and Medicare. That’s what they ALL said 4 years ago, and nothing happened, in fact, I saved Social Security and Medicare. I will not be cutting, but they will. Be careful! ' ” . . .

Biden and Sanders: Tweedledum and Tweedledee

imgbin.com

Patricia McCarthy  "At Pajamas Media, Stephen Green rightly titled his live blog on the debate, "Grumpy Old White Men: Drunkblogging the Democratic Diversity Debate.  But these two old codgers are beyond grumpy; they are both tethered to the already done or distant past.

"The first half-hour of this match was dedicated to the current crisis of the coronavirus.  They both puffed themselves up to tell us all what they would do; each and every suggestion from both of them was things President Trump has already done, already put in place.  It was as though neither of them has paid a bit of attention to how on top of this pandemic Trump has been while they were thoroughly absorbed by his attempted impeachment.  Biden bragged about the Obama administration's action on H1N1 in 2008–09 but didn't mention that it was disastrous.  Nothing was implemented in that case until a thousand Americans had died and 300,000 were hospitalized.  Neither Biden nor Sanders prescribed a single thing that has not already been achieved.  Both of them repeatedly mixed up past epidemics.  It was a thoroughly wasted first half-hour of the debate.  Not a word uttered by either candidate would comfort or likely win over a single new voter.

"Biden, when asked if bureaucratic red tape impeded testing at the outset, said no, but as Clarice Feldman explained, it absolutely did.  (Read the whole thing.)  Diagnostic testing is (was) so overregulated that the CDC had devolved into something resembling the DMV.  Trump has taken all this on with the alacrity of a man with long experience in business.  He brought together the CEOs of our biggest retail and medical organizations to help.  Neither Biden nor Sanders would have sought help from the big corporations they so loathe.  Both of them would have relied on our bloated, dysfunctional bureaucracy.  Trump, on the other hand, has brought these skilled businessmen on board, all of whom are problem-solvers, not bureaucrats or politicians. 

"Biden stupidly touts Obamacare, which has been a dismal failure.  Bernie rages on and on about the lack of doctors!  Why might that be?  Obama socialized our medical care enough to frighten older doctors from their chosen field and keep talented young people from embarking on a medical career." . . .  Full article

'Trump ‘is a Racist, a Sexist, a Homophobe, a Xenophobe and a Religious Bigot’, says Bernie Sanders:, Liar, Demagogue, Communist*.

CNS News   "In a statement made today in Burlington, Vt., Sen. Bernie Sanders indicated that he is staying in the Democratic presidential primary race and said that he believes President Donald Trump “is a racist, a sexist, a homophobe, a xenophobe and a religious bigot.”
“ 'Let me begin by reiterating what I have said from Day One of this campaign, and that is that Donald Trump is the most dangerous president in the modern history of our country and he must be defeated,” Sanders said.
“ 'Tragically, we have a president today who is a pathological liar and is running a corrupt administration,” he continued.
“He clearly does not understand the Constitution of the United States and thinks that he is a president who is above the law,” said Sanders.
“In my view,” Sanders said, “he is a racist, a sexist, a homophobe, a xenophobe and a religious bigot and he must be defeated and I will do everything in my power to make that happen.' ”

4 Ways Trump Has Done More for African Americans Than Barack Obama  . . . "In less than two years in the Oval Office, President Trump continued his push for criminal justice reform by passing the First Step Act which targeted many shackled by the unfair and unjust sentencing laws which were instituted by the Bill Clinton 1994 Crime Bill.

"It’s hard to imagine that President Trump, not Barack Obama, would pass the most comprehensive criminal justice reform bill in decades. Despite Barack Obama having Democratic control of all branches of government for his first two years, the priority just never seemed to be put on addressing the issues that were the most oppressive for underserved Blacks in America."

4 Ways Trump Has Done More for African Americans Than Barack Obama

. . . 

"It’s even more interesting to see so many people who will support a policy initiated by the political affiliation that they prefer, yet they lash out against the same policies when they’re pushed by the opposite political party. Just check your favorite politician's perspectives on illegal immigration and criminal justice reform just a decade ago. Democrats have mastered this manipulation when it comes to winning the black vote, with most candidates not even needing to campaign to the black demographic. Democrats have been able to create a political correctness philosophy that has successfully lumped illegal immigration, minimum wage, LGBTQ rights and racism towards African Americans all into one blended issue. It’s comical really. The political party of slavery, Jim Crow, the 1994 Crime Bill, and welfare dumping has now branded themselves as the voice of social justice.

CNN blasted for now declaring 'Wuhan virus' as 'racist' after weeks of network's 'China's coronavirus' coverage

Like Biden with his Romney "binders", ridicule something until people think it must be ridiculous. When the media has nothing, they just manufacture something and hammer it till people accept it as significant. Project Veritas has exposed CNN's own people discussing its purpose of getting Trump out of office. They have sacrificed their reputation for the purpose of doing this. Jake Tapper is capable of so much better. TD

Fox News

However, weeks leading up to the coronavirus outbreak, as the Media Research Center demonstrated in a video on Thursday, several CNN anchors and reporters referred to it as the "Wuhan coronavirus" and "China's coronavirus."

"CNN appeared to take the position this week that describing the coronavirus as the "Wuhan virus" or the "Chinese coronavirus" is racist but had a much different tone before the outbreak hit the U.S.
"On Wednesday night, CNN chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta was extremely critical of President Trump's Oval Office address on the coronavirus outbreak, but not because of the factual errors the White House had to clarify later that many critics flagged.
“The president referred to the coronavirus as a ‘foreign virus,’ that I think was interesting because, I was talking to sources earlier this evening, one of the points that the president wanted to make tonight, wanted to get across to Americans, is that this virus did not start here, but that they’re dealing it,” Acosta said. “Now, why the president would go as far to describe it as a foreign virus, that is something we’ll also be asking questions about.”

"Acosta then insisted Trump is "going to come across to a lot of Americans as smacking of xenophobia" too because he said the coronavirus came from a foreign source." . . .

Remember the Last Global Pandemic? Probably Not

Bloomberg

In 2009, a new strain of H1N1 influenza emerged. It did not cause anywhere near the disruption that Covid-19 has, and for good reason.

. . . "Swine flu has a history that makes health authorities pay special heed. In 1918, a variant of H1N1 influenza caused a global pandemic that is estimated to have killed as many as 50 million people, or 2.7% of the world’s population. After tests found H1N1 in two soldiers during a flu outbreak at the Fort Dix army base in New Jersey in 1976, the U.S. government jumped into action, with President Gerald Ford announcing a plan to vaccinate “every man, woman, and child in the United States.” That turned into something of a debacle, though, as the virus didn’t seem to spread beyond Fort Dix and the hastily assembled vaccine killed about 30 people."

. . . 

"By the time the vaccines became widely available in November, though, H1N1 was already on the decline. By January, many countries were canceling their vaccine orders, and a German physician and former Social Democratic politician was leading a campaign lambasting the WHO for declaring a “fake” pandemic to gin up business for pharmaceutical manufacturers." . . .

Biden has experience dealing with pandemics as this 2009 cartoon proves:

Adam Zyglis, The Buffalo News

Joe's a mess and Bernie's a disaster, but the Democrats are insidious

Biden and Sanders one-on-one debate will be a good preview of Biden against Trump
. . . "Now, it's difficult to believe that the same man who often seems easily flustered and confused during debates once treated Paul Ryan with such confidence that the Guardian wrote the following headline: "Joe Biden's alpha-male display leaves Paul Ryan overwhelmed in VP debate." Times certainly have changed." . . .
. . . Sunday night's debate between Biden and Sanders will be less about who is victorious in the present battle and more about how similar behavior would translate to a stage with Trump as the opponent. If Biden is looking to reassure Democrats and potentially sway independents to his side, he'll have to be strong and assured throughout. Recent history is not on his side, and any failure to deliver will only embolden his ultimate rival." . . .

Slow Joe Getting Slower (Updated: He Lied - Again)  "Since we’re all settled in now for The Great Hunkering and looking for things to do, you might want to spend four minutes watching Slow Joe Biden from his “virtual town hall” in Illinois a few days ago. The opening section of this clip shows his propensity for sheer confusion and befuddlement, but then in response to a question about the Endangered Species Act he goes off in into full Biden Loghorrea Mode." . . . Video here

"And note too how his handlers quickly replace the image of confused Joe Biden shuffling out of frame with a campaign logo image during what was a live video stream meant to show Mr. Biden discussing concerns with voters.
"Trying to keep these Biden gaffes somewhat contained/hidden has become a 24/7 operation for the Biden campaign." . . .  Video

If not these two, then who?  I'm afraid to ask.
