'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.' ”
Only the most ignorant voters would accept this tripe. Racist? The man who chose Dr. Ben Carson to head HUD, Trump Administration Surgeon General Vice Admiral Jerome Adams?
Homophobe? Richard Grenell, "acting Director of National Intelligence, the U.S. Ambassador to Germany, and Special Presidential Envoy for Serbia and Kosovo Peace Negotiations."

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."

*Communist?  "Bernie Sanders appears to have Communist red flags in his history. When he was at the University of Chicago in 1964, he joined the Young People’s Socialist League. Sanders also organized the United Packinghouse Workers Union while they were under investigation by the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Some believed it was a communist front." . . .Keep reading...
 

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

Jack Brewer  "I remember the move when I donated my entire office and all of the furniture and equipment to the Obama campaign to launch the Minnesota Headquarters in 2007.
"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.

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.
. . . 
"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.
"Well as a lifelong Democrat, I say enough is enough."

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:

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


Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s 87th birthday should be motivation for Democrats to back Biden   "Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a four-time cancer survivor, turns 87 on Sunday.
"That’s it.
"That’s all you really need to know for the 2020 presidential election if you’re a Democrat or left-leaning moderate." . . .



Watch Joe Biden Forget What Year It Is And Then Walk Away During Live Video Stream  "Yikes." 
"It’s moments like this that have more and more people understandably concerned about the mental well-being of the Democrat front-runner for president.
"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.

We’re Paying The Price For The Death Of Journalism

"The death of journalism has left Americans with nowhere to turn to for reliable, honest reporting. All of these outlets could and should have only experts on to talk about coronavirus. What someone on the payroll with zero background in medicine thinks about this situation might be good for ratings, but it’s not journalism. And people tune in to news networks expecting to get news, especially in times like this."
Townhall


"That journalism is dead has been a punchline for so long that we’ve forgotten how that fact has real world consequences. We’re now paying the price for the failure of that profession to hold itself to any semblance of standards. As worry and straight-up panic sweep large swaths of the country, causing irrational toilet paper hoarding and runs on canned goods, there is no outlet and no journalist worthy of trust when it comes to conveying truthful information to the public or to hold anyone in power accountable.
"Eight years of sycophantic, throne sniffing coverage under President Barack Obama gave way to four years of nitpicking, hostility, and conspiracy theories. There are no standards anymore; if someone on TV hates President Trump, there is no outrageous, medically dubious statement they can make on CNN or MSNBC that will be challenged and if they love him, there is nothing that will be challenged on Fox. The opposite is true on those networks if you replace “President Trump” with any Democrat." . . .
. . . "These are unserious people in a time of serious challenges. The world’s greatest minds in the field of infectious diseases are working to save the lives of older, vulnerable people and they see opportunity. Senators fret, “Right now in America, it is easier to get an AR-15 than a test kit for COVID-19,” while noted liberals complain, “Note that Trump’s coronavirus team is all male, all old, and all white,” while there are women, one a woman of color, speaking at that very moment." . . .

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. " . . .
