I think I have it.. why have "some" media, punditry, and pols have gone seemingly anti Biden

[Peacetrain]

I was not going to write any more ops on this subject.. I am getting so tired of it myself..

But In the shower of all places.. I was pondering the reactions of some of our famous and beloved pundits and pols.. I have been asking for two weeks now, what is going on with these people.. Then like a shot out of the blue, it hit me.. (They are a little ageist here, in this, but none of us are perfect)... My guess is that they thought President Biden was going to step down after 4 years of cleaning up Trumps mess.. And then some much younger person would step in.

At no time did President Biden ever say he was running for only 4 years.. but I know we talked about it on DU in 2020.. I think they convinced themselves of this.. they had this fantasy going through their heads and it became a reality for them..

Its the only thing that makes any sense..

1. My theory: Media Mogul Oligarchs threatened to fire anybody who doesn't dump on Biden

As in most things, follow the money, and now, add in AI taking jobs

5. It's about career and maintaining a nice lifestyle.

The media aren't in the tank for Trump. They're in the tank for themselves.

2. Cheneys cardiologist was on cnn again

Putting to rest the zparkinson thing. However he again broughtup bidens debate performance, and wants tests. I hope he's also calling for Trump to be tested. I'm sick of seeing this guy. He's not young at all. Maybe he needs to retire

[Think. Again.]

3. Yes, and still we're not seeing much about...

...the latest epstein/trump documents in the media.

Shouldn't that be a big story?

Or did epstein's death put the desired end to all talk of anything about trump being a child molester?

4. Could be..

It also could be that a lot of white critics of Joe staying on don't like the idea of a POC stepping in for him if something happens.

6. Could just be that they fear Biden will lose to Trump?

this time around based on what they saw in his debate performance?

8. Could be.

7. You may be on to something

in the 2020 race, anonymous "prominent" Biden campaign sources said exactly that directly, and specifically said that impression would improve his chances to win the nomination for 2020. Biden hedged his statements on the matter and made no promises.

9. Indicated but did not commit to it.

Teddy Roosevelt regretted making such a pledge.

10. Nothing makes sense to me.

The very candidacy of trump is abhorrent So damn depressing to watch and listen.

11. I think the media loves the drama of the convicted felon and Prwsident Biden is not as interesting to report

On because he’s calm and does the job with no chaos like the convicted felon.

These papers needs clicks so they have to write these cringe articles.
