Pushing bogus anti-Biden claim, Trump tripped up by reality

The platform does not support defunding the police, as Biden and his campaign have stated on multiple occasions. Wallace points this out, saying the plan "says nothing about defunding the police." "Oh really? It says abolish, it says defund. Let’s go! Get me the charter, please," Trump said, turning to speak to staff out-of-frame.

Not surprisingly, this didn't work out well for the White House: neither Trump nor his aides could substantiate the president's transparently and demonstrably false claim. Wallace told viewers that Trump “couldn’t find any indication, because there isn’t any, that Joe Biden has sought to defund [or] abolish the police.”

In the same interview, Wallace noted that when it comes to the coronavirus pandemic, the United States has an alarmingly high mortality rate by international standards. Trump said the host had it backwards, insisting,"I think we have one of the lowest mortality rates in the world."to an off-screen staffer,"Can you please get me the mortality rates?"At face value, the fact that Trump is still peddling nonsense may not seem especially interesting.

There's been speculation for years about the nature of Trump's dishonesty. When he makes ridiculous claims, for example, about Joe Biden's agenda, is he deliberately trying to deceive the public or does he genuinely believe his falsehoods? Yesterday's Fox News interview tipped the scales toward the latter: the president's eagerness to turn to aides to bolster his nonsense suggests he really didn't know how wrong he was.

MaddowBlog Politicians: “I can’t make bogus claims while running for office?”

MaddowBlog Or it shows that the President is a victim of Fox TV. Like many of his followers. They believe the lies.

MaddowBlog Biden just said he wishes schools taught more about Islamic faith, why not Catholic faith or any other religions. This tells who Biden is.

MaddowBlog MSNBC is as Demented as Crazy Creepy Joe

MaddowBlog When are they going to debate? The media does a lot of talking for Biden, given his inability. I wouldn't be surprised if they kept him tucked away to avoid the travesty. This is troubling for objective voters, but the 'vote blue no matter who' cult doesn't care. Strange.

Trump leans on 2016 tactic to crack Biden supportIn the past three weeks alone, the Trump team has poured out more than $2 million on advertisements in six swing states and nationally The MSM media has spent countless hours undermining Trump and bolstering Biden and the far left for free media should be legally required to state their political bias before they report on any story. Bias position could be determined by a federal agency or percentage. Requiring the media bias position before a report would not impair free speech and would help the American people BULLSHIT doesn't work twice

The number of Americans who trust Biden to handle the pandemic better than Trump is increasingBack at the end of March, when the coronavirus was first surging in the United States, polls showed Americans felt similarly about both presidential candidates ability to handle the pandemic. Three months later, that&39;s changed, a new survey released from The Washington Post and ABC News finds. The I'd trust a box of rocks to do better than DJT. Sure, Jussie. The moment Biden is sworn I he will make a change for the better regarding covid. Hopefully we are better than we are today but the way the Donald is taking care of this now, something tells me we will have 300K dead and we will top 5.5K cases in the US at least. VoteBlue

Biden eyes GOP supporters while Trump focuses on his baseIn the four months since Joe Biden effectively won the Democratic presidential nomination, he has focused on consolidating the party&39;s divergent and often warring factions. As the closing stretch of the campaign nears, that effort will expand to include Republicans disaffected with President Donald d. trump is deplorable and evil man ! all in one ! That's all well and good for trying to get the Midwest to vote for Biden, but the Dems cannot forget their base, either. They need to make sure people like Sanders and AOC get time, too. Lmfao! Anyone with brain knows that Jor Biden is a Republican acting like a democrat who has record WORSE THAN Trump!
