Why you haven’t seen a sit-down Biden interview yet (Gropin' Joe incapacitated?)
Politico ^ | 1/31/21 | Christopher Cadelago, Sam Mintz

Joe Biden waited nearly four decades to become the most powerful man in the free world. Now that he is, he’s making himself scarce.

**SNIP**

White House aides describe the strategy not so much as delegation but as an concerted effort to restore confidence with a public battered by the contradictory messaging and scorched-earth politics of the Trump years. In just over a week, the White House has booked 80 TV and radio interviews with 20 senior administration officials, members of the Covid-19 response team and Cabinet secretary designates. They’ve had officials on each major network, booking them on every Sunday show in the first week. And they worked with CNN to have three of the doctors in charge of its Covid-19 response take questions from the public during a coronavirus town hall, said Mariel Sáez, the White House director of broadcast media.

Who’s not been booked for any sit-down interviews: Biden.

But the president hasn’t exactly been absent either. He appeared for brief ceremonies where he signed executive orders and delivered mostly scripted remarks. He’s taken a handful of questions from the news media. And he’s expected to give a major foreign policy address on Monday amid a planned trip to the State Department, his first visit to a Cabinet agency.

“most powerful man in the free world”

Odd turn of phrase to describe a regime which stands is proud opposition to freedom.

I don’t remember those days at all.

MAGA was always MAGA. The scorched erf came from CNN et.al.

“Let’s be honest, neither he nor Kamala are in charge of this disaster.”

I agree, but here’s the rub. When, not if, Harris becomes president, they may find her to be a little less submissive than Biden. Harris is a soulless leftist and that makes her unpredictable.

I have no doubt the handlers are working on his body double to make it appear Biden still has cognitive abilities.

“Contradictory messaging and scorched-earth politics of the Trump years”

Does anybody remember that? The fevered brains that write this trash are bizarre.

I remember a steady pro-American message buttressed with kept pro-American promises and actions that restored American global leadership. That resulted in some of the best years I can remember.

The establishment media knows that it cannot hide Biden from extended public view indefinitely, so it is putting out quasi-plausible explanations for his absence, hoping that it will not have to publicly reckon with his cognitive decline before he dies or resigns.

Don’t think the deep state won’t do to her what they did to Trump. She knows it, and will play their game the way they want.

They’re turning on him. That didn’t take long. The rabid leftists got what they wanted, now they’re making excuses. The bumbling, feckless, demented fool is making a laughing stock of himself and the fools supporting him.
