The Morning Briefing: CNN Forum Throws Nothing But Softballs and Pathetic Biden Strikes Out Anyway

Last night, CNN — aka The Official Broadcast Wing of the Democratic National Committee — hosted Joe Biden for an hour-long forum. This affair was a bit more cuddly than the president’s time with ABC. Even so, Slurry Joe struggled with things like English and his own policies.

Bronson Stocking has more at Townhall:

Joe Biden praised the idea of incorporating fact-checkers into the presidential debates, but those desperately needed fact-checkers were nowhere to be found at CNN’s town hall event with Biden on Thursday.

In stark contrast to President Trump’s town hall event with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos earlier this week, CNN’s Anderson Cooper and a crowd of mostly friendly supporters took turns asking the 77-year-old candidate softball questions.

Biden told all sorts of lies during the one-hour event on CNN, a fitting location for such fake news. Biden lied when he accused President Trump of not mentioning the coronavirus in his State of the Union Address.

“My administration will take all necessary steps to safeguard our citizens from this threat,” Trump said in his State of the Union Address, which Nancy Pelosi ripped up in anger.

There were a couple of Kabuki theater moments that CNN staged to try and make things seem legit. Host Anderson Cooper briefly pressed Biden on the fact that he’s been all over the place on the fracking issue, for example. Biden gave a barely-coherent answer and Cooper let it go. That’s a classic MSM ruse with Democrats. The interviewer will hit the Dem with the “hard question,” then accept virtually any answer and leave it at that.

A real low point came when the declining Biden couldn’t remember what to call the place where the mail goes:

An astute FReeper recently noted that Biden would strike out in T-ball at this stage.

“Joe Biden praised the idea of incorporating fact-checkers into the presidential debates”

This could the poison pill set up.

Soft Balls or Beach Balls? Sheesh, the questions asked were the types of questions you would ask a 5 year old.

I should have cropped it closer, but that is Biden whispering / sniffing Anderson Cooper's hair without a mask when they thought they were in commercial. When on air they stay a dozen feet away, camera leaves Biden is practically making love to Cooper without a mask.

Was Cooper giving him the questions?

Biden has consistently struck out for decades, even when he was at the top of his game.

Dude just ain't got game and never has.

He has been the butt of jokes about his lack of smart and lack of competency since the 1970s.

Seriously, Osama bin Ladin’s evil plan to destroy America consisted of assassinating President Obama (reluctantly, of course. Professional courtesy and all.) putting Biden in as President. And, as plans go, it was a good one having a better chance of success in destroying America than bringing down the World Trade Center ever had.
