He is doing a story about Obama's visit to the White House.
That's the story.
Obama . Returning . To . The . White . House
Then he goes to Biden's sagging poll numbers.
Then up comes a clip of Rafael Cruz spewing.
Then back to the story of Obama returning to the White House.
Having the clip of Cruz had fuck all to do with the story. But in showing it, it takes a bit of the fun surrounding Obama and Biden together again. And it slams Biden. Pretty much gratuitously.
Thanks Lester.
You fuck.

(27,555 posts)President Biden I stopped watching him and switched to Sbc David Muir who is not a republican hitman like Lester.

But when the local ABC affiliate, owned by Sinclair Broadcasting, forced its news anchors/readers to read pro-Trump talking points l switched, in utter disgust, to NBC. Recently, however, I started watching David Muir again and realized how much I liked his show.
