Wow. I don't think I've ever seen the media/democrat complex turn on somebody this fast and this hard. Axios got ahold of the Hur tapes of Joe Biden and they're starting to release them.

It makes sense, though: the media and every senior democrat knew that the 2020 election campaign was a sham on a number of levels - Biden was already not the guy he was even back in 2016, he sat in his basement the entire time, claiming COVID as an excuse and generally was hidden from the public. During his Presidency his handlers, fellow democrats and the media tried their best to gaslight the public on what was glaringly obivous:

"Those videos of him stumbling around are cheap fakes!"
"Sharp as a tack!"
"People half his age can't keep up with him!"

...and so on.

People who pointed out what BS it all was were attacked.

Well now the media has a problem. They're the most hated institution in the country and people want to know why they kept the running lie up for so many years. So they're trying to claim "The White House lied to us!" as if that's going to fly (it won't).

I've got my popcorn ready. I think an obvious question that should be put in front of every single democrat for the next 10 years is "Who was actually running the country from 2021-2025?"

Because it sure wasn't Joe Biden.

Well, Joe Biden is out. He's not President any more. So why the attacks on him?

It sure sounds like a way to distract from Trump's various and sundry disasters - losing court cases (lost the Alien Enemies Act case today), on again off again tariffs, his own mental decline (how about that Sean Spicer "weave" yesterday in the mid-east), the utter obviousness of the airplane bribe from Qatar, and on and on and on.

But sure, let's attack Joe Biden instead of addressing Trump's own issues.

LOL.

You seemed to have missed the point of the thread: The long knives that are out for Biden?

They're in the hands of his own party

Then why don’t you provide some links to your sources for this? All you posted was your own words with no sources.

I still say it’s a distraction technique to try to avoid facing Trumps own cognitive decline.

At least it was Biden’s own party who took him out of the race last summer. Trump’s party is too full of lickspittles to take Trump out.

Do you not watch the news? Like, at all? Have you missed literally the major headline of this past week?

This demand for source posting is among the laziest of lazy Shrewd left wing tendencies. Do I need to provide a link to a calculator app for you when somebody says "two plus two equals four".

You’re the one making the claims. So yes, provide your sources.

Or are you too scared to back up your claims with sources because you know the sources are garbage?

So that's a big fat NO. You don't watch the news.

The Dem strategy may have shifted from build upon what they have to "burn it all down and start over". This is essentially what the GOP did with Trump and it worked. The GOP has invested heavily in building distrust in government so this may be a way the Dems can leverage that. If during the midterms we see a lot of new faces with significant financial backing we will have confirmation this is the new strategy.
