I am no fan of the bumbling Biden but why does Biden get so much attention for this type of thing but no one calls out Trump for similar things?

Broadcast Coverage Of Trump 95% Negative, New Study Says

STUDY: Evening News 150 Times More Negative Of Trump Than Biden

https://www.dailywire.com/news/study-evening-news-150-times-more-negative-of-trump-than-biden

Quote
In those same two months, virtually every negative story about Biden — from Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations
to his sharp leftward shift, to his apparent racial gaffes — was all swept under the rug or dramatically under-reported,
even as the newscasts continued to negatively cover President Trump. The former vice president’s own policy platform,
which includes massive expansions of government health care, education, and environmental programs, received just
“a meager 5 minutes, 22 seconds of airtime, not one second of which included any critical analysis from any journalist.”

You sound exactly like the Main Stream Liberal/Leftist Media.

Joe Biden said insane shit ....

... but ORANGE MAN BAD!!

That's your go-to defense for Biden, it seems -- just like the media.

He is far from bumbling. He is a liar. He plagiarizes speeches and academic work. Nothing more than a talking head. Nothing original. Do nothing BS "Ive been in govt for over 30 years"  and this schmuck has nothing to show for it, just benefits to his family at the expense of national security.
Those same networks in the 1980s are no fan of Trump in this age. Things are flipped and those same networks would not air anything of that sort NOW.

Clearly paid to troll here.   I am seeing a lot of this lately.  Soros' $$ being spread around.

Old slow Joe says the damndest things :


When I was a kid I lived in a predominately Mexican part of LA county.
I worked in a liquor store there for a Jew.  He had a start of David and a number
crudely tattooed on his left arm, guess where he grew up.
One of the customers took a liking to me and showed me a ball
of Black tar Heroin as big as a softball. He would not sell
in the neighborhood.
We were were right across the LA river from Compton.
If a black was caught on our side of the river they were shot
and it would never make the news.

Agreed but that isn't my point. There is a lack of consistency, Trump gets a pass and Biden gets slammed on this forum for similar things.

This is a forum - not journalism. We are full of opinions just like you. Perhaps we like Trump more than lying, sleepy Joe Biden. You go to an anti gun forum and you may find Biden lovers.

here is the APs coverage of the RNC.
https://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2020/08/24/delegates-ready-renominate-trump-charlotte-convention/

vastly different from the DNC where they looked at the racial makeup of the RNC. Nothing glowing compared to the polishing of a sea urchin last week.

When I was a kid,  a Hawaiian taught me how to eat a sea urchin.
Never taught me how to polish one, just how to polish one off.

Again the picture brings up the lyrics of "Smiling Faces, sometimes" by Undisputed Truth.

One part goes like this:  Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes.....they don't tell the truth..."

But in Joe's case we gotta change "sometimes" to " MOST TIMES".  :rofl:

Fair enough, I just personally don't like logical inconsistency.
