Is the Liberal Media Sending a Message to President Biden

Post by Glennfs »

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/ ... 62065fe87e

I saw this oped in the Boston Hearld and a similar one in the LA Times today. Both had an anti-Biden tone and it makes me beieve that they are sending a message for him not to run for a second term.

Also, Mayor Pete has been saying the right things lately and if voters can get over him being Gay I believe he would have the inside track at being our next president.
If so I hope people especially those on the left judge him on the job he does and lays off the how great it is we have a gay president. I believe it is time we get beyond the OMG they are this or she is that and simply look to see if they are qualified and judge them only on the job they are doing.

I don't think Ms. Curley is "liberal media".

https://www.bostonherald.com/author/grace-curley/

Grace Curley is the executive producer of the Howie Carr Show. She hosts a daily news segment on the program that is simulcast on Newsmax TV. She is also the producer of the Dirty Rats podcast series.

[snip][end]

[from Wikipedia - re Howie Carr]
During the Donald Trump 2016 presidential campaign, Carr hosted rallies and he had lunch with the candidate on his private jet. Carr had candidate Trump on his radio show more than a dozen times, including election night. In 2017, Carr and his wife Kathy joined as member of the Mar-a-Lago Club, a resort and hotel for dues-paying members.

Keep your eyes open at how many anti-Biden articles are coming from media which is generally DNC friendly. IMO they know Biden can't win a second term and is dragging down the party in the up coming midterms. Because of that they are subtly encouraging him not to seek a second term.

Yeah, that is your opinion, and I do not share it.

Secondly, I personally don't care if he doesn't run for a 2nd term. It's his decision. If he doesn't, I can't see any reason why Kamala Harris won't be the 2024 nominee. Who knows, someone might run against her in the primaries, I doubt they will get far, and all the people saying the party should have bailed on Biden will be saying the same thing about Harris. At least they won't be complaining she's too old.

I don't see anyone in the GOP Harris would have a chance against. A while back I read a little joke that went the DNC managed to find a woman that people dislike more than HRC.
On one hand if Mayor Pete wasn't gay he would be a lock. On the other hand if Mayor Pete wasnt Gay we probably would have never heard of him. Either way he is moving well up in the standings

He may have future ambitions, but I don't see him running against the 2024 nominee. Whoever that is.

If the Democratic Party loses the WH I wonder what he will do over the next 4 years to remain relevant politically. There is so much money to be made in lobbying and TV he might forgo his political future. I could see him taking over for Rachel Maddow

Created way back when journalists were exposed for being educated and worldly, for obvious reasons.

Righty conflated education and worldly and mature with "liberal." They were right for once.

There is no such thing as “liberal media” when it comes to mainstream media. Every single network is owned by conservative corps and advertisers,

No, CNN is not liberal media. In fact, they’re owned by the same company that’s owns OAN.

CNN also did it’s part helping Trump get elected in 2016 with constant coverage.

How stupid.

The party has better resources available. Governor Whitmer, governor Jared Polis, governor Tim Walz, governor Roy Cooper.

I think Harris is paper machete. She might beat trump just because. Other opponents not so much.

Send them a letter asking them to run.

The last time a president refused to run for a 2nd term was Johnson in 1968, and his VP Humphrey was the nominee. Yes, I know it did not work out well for the Dem party. But I point out the historical trend. It would look very strange for the VP not to run if the POTUS chooses not to.

I personally think she’s a weak candidate and is beatable in a primary. She didn’t exactly light it up last time.

:?

What are you talking about, NOW?

The request is for a link to this assertion:



CNN admitted WHAT?

Where, and when did they admit this thing?? :?

It's not a game.

It's only a game to people who were raised to believe they have no accountability to things they say, and that everyone else around you are to just accept any garbage that comes out of your dirty WN mouths, and have no concept of the "personal responsibility" you guys preach at everyone else.

JFC, trying to have any kind of normal conversation with you even about BASIC things is worse than pulling teeth.

That a candidate is beatable in a primary is a tautology.

Questions come up, of course, as to by whom, and when. Then we get into issues of likelihood.

Yes, she's unpopular now. Is everybody's psychic precognitive powers affixed to her unpopularity in 2024? I don't know it yet.

Usually the final question party voters are interested in is how well the other candidate would do in the general election. Guessing that at this point, when no one knows the general election opponent, is also ... pointless.

We can return to these discussions in 2024 if people are still interested. After all, no decisions have to be made till then.
