Not sure the best way to post this other than above. Biden admitting voter fraud.
What do you think he meant?

He's talking about preventing voter fraud.

Is this really the best you can do?

Technically, that’s you admitting you’re a bit of a chump.

Not sure. But its clear he can say whatever he wants to and no one will think its a blunder, or an embarassement, or a lie, or anything that Trump would get labelled with. He'll get a free pass on whatever he says. Cant imagine Biker28 saying " ....obviously Trump meant...." when he quotes his latest thoughts.

It is a close example of what the OP was on about. I mean, imagine if he actually meant it...

Seems like a fairly obvious brainfart mis-speak. Like Priti Patel's counter-terrorism gaffe; and nobody used that to score cheap points, did they? biggrin

It's not even a brain fart really. The coronavirus task force isn't called the "Anti-coronavirus task force". The police don't have "Anti-homicide", or "Anti-Vice" squads.

Biden still speaks like he's in an age of good faith arguments, where people wouldn't take phrases like they're ultra-literal.

(To be fair, if it was Trump that said it, I'd be joyously all over it)

Some of the mails or at least photos are real, I don't think anyone disputes this do they? So the fact that no meta data has been released doesn't matter in those case. Are you saying that because the meta data hasn't been released that proves that the bad stuff can't be true? To be honest I get the impression that you are actually open to looking at more evidence should it emerge. Unlike many who seem to already know the outcome of this.
You place a lot of weight on this lack of meta data, I just happen to place more weight on the fact that, verified or not, some released material is real and that nobody has actually denied any of it.
Someone earlier in the thread (perhaps you?) asked how one would feel or act (paraphrasing) if fake emails were released via nothing more substantial than a pdf, well I would probably say they were fake. Seems the obvious response.

As for the deeper look, I remember a time when news organisations had such things as investigative journalists.

To me, it comes down to who gives a st? Back in the day, it was obvious Mark Thatcher was a plonker, possibly involved in arms deals and getting lost in the desert, and his parents worried about him and tried to do their best for him. But I still voted for his mum and went out canvassing for the tories (well, not literally, because I didn't live in Finchley, but you know what I mean)

Not quite, the media bias against Trump is there for all to see and has been since he walked down the stairs to announce his intention of running.

What has happened in the last week is way beyond the lies and twisting what Trump says, this is outright censorship of information and evidence of corruption against a running candidate for office.
There is now a third party on record confirming the validity of some of the e-mails along with Joe Bidens direct participation, with another of Hunters ex partners confirming he also has e-mails, texts and documents and will cooperate.

Trump has been backed by Murdoch throughout and has the largest rolling news channel in the US acting as his house channel.

But yeah, the media is biased against him.

It's one network out of how many? Studies have show smithing like 80%+ news coverage of Trump is negative.

Perhaps that's because he is staggeringly incompetent and a truly appalling person?

Well quite.

The mental gymnastics required to think otherwise are quite something.

Man blames matches for starting house fire.

reddit now joined in censoring any posts relating to Biden story, though a few of the pictures did beat the count in.

Perhaps an ex president should be asking his "Daughter" questions about her taste in sexual partner and explaining that if you chop up a line with your credit card its not a good idea to leave it name side showing. ;0)

Is that anything like Reddit? Or did your haste to once again become proudly tumescent on behalf of the Orange stgibbon prevent you from reading what you'd read?
