Biden plans shadow coronavirus briefings
Politico ^ | 3/20/20 | Marc Caputo

Posted on 03/20/2020 7:27:20 PM PDT by Libloather

Joe Biden is planning a regular shadow briefing on coronavirus to start as early as Monday to show how he would handle the crisis and address what he calls the lies and failures of President Trump.

Biden gave a preview of what’s to come in a conference call with reporters Friday, where he listed a litany of false and misleading statements from Trump, who has been holding regular White House press conferences concerning coronavirus preparedness and response that have been broadcast live on all major networks.

“President Trump stop saying false things, will ya?” Biden said. “People are worried they are really frightened, when these things don't come through. He just exacerbates their concern. Stop saying false things you think make you sound like a hero and start putting the full weight of the federal government behind finding fast, safe and effective treatments.”

Biden made his comments from his home in Wilmington, Delaware, where he has been holed up for more than a week in adherence with Centers for Disease Control guidelines that urge people to practice social distancing.

Sleepy Joe will wake up from his nap long enough to read some contrived talking points. This will backfire. And has the Bernster been kicked to the curb already? I can only assume that he's hiding in one of his three houses.

I’m sure those Biden briefings will only last long enough for him to make a complete fool of himself.

At what point do political opponents cross the line into SEDITION?

I’m sorry - that’s both disgusting and unhelpful at a time the country should be pulling together.

Biden’s an ass for doing this and this action alone should disqualify him from office.

Funny how the media does not ask Joe hard questions. Only autoworkers do.

just confirms that Trump’s daily briefings are doing heavy impact and that the recent polls are dead on...

no one will watch his crap, except those waiting for the next gaffe... surprised it took long for them to come up with this.

They’ll have to ask the grim reaper to stop standing behind him.

This is helpful how?

“I know, I’m an idiot but I know how to second guess the president.

Let’s see, “Trump was a racist and xenophobe by banning flights from China. I mean, how is Hunter going to get his bagman deliveries? I know, we’ll route them through Iran!”

Too many cooks in the kitchen. It will cause more confusion, and make the market tank all the way to hell.

Sorry, Joe. You're late to the party.

Safe, effective treatments have been found and it was without any government interference at all.

If the full weight of the federal government were behind finding a fast, safe, effective sure, whatever they came up with would NOT be fast, safe, or effective.

I suspect people will see this for the shabby, undermining political stunt that it is.

So it’s just a press conference complaining about your political opponent. Ok there, Joe.

Prediction. This plan will backfire spectacularly, and Biden will, as his idiom, make a total fool of himself.
