The steadfast, wilful refusal of Dem political & media elites to address what is increasingly visible to the naked eye — Biden’s serious cognitive decline — is frightening indeed, not only for what it portends for 2020 but what it says about the ease of snapping them into line:
Here’s @mehdirhasan on how self-delusional and willfully blind Democratic Party elites are being when it comes the grim, ugly, uncomfortable reality of Joe Biden because of how desperate they are to stop Sanders:

After disappearing for the week, this isn't a convincing response to growing concerns - first implied in the debates by Julian Castro, then raised by Cory Booker, today reported in @Politico - about Biden's cognitive decline.

Soon he'll just appear by hologram, spouting phrases:
So funny: @neeratanden warns if Biden's cognitive issues continue to be raised, working class anti-elite rage will convert into support for the 6-term Senator & 2-term VP, who made $15 million in his first 2 years after leaving office through corporate speaking fees & book deals:
I think it's more likely working class anti-elite rage will result in a pro-Neera protest outside the DC headquarters of CAP in support of its decision to censor from its anti-Muslim report the NYPD/Blomberg chapter for fear of losing Bloomberg cash than into pro-Biden sentiment.

Insulting and cursing at voters for seeing what is completely visible to the naked eye about Biden, and then topping it off with accusations of bigotry, is definitely a winning strategy against Trump.

The only thing missing is to call anyone who notices this a "deplorable." 👍
Trying to blame this on a "childhood stutter" problem is genuinely an insult to people who stutter -- as well as a insult to everyone's intelligence:

And I still don't know what the fuck this is but I'm quite sure that it has nothing to do with issues of childhood stuttering.

I'm also quite sure that the person who goes around saying stuff like this is not the "safe" electability choice against Trump:

Here's Joe Biden in 2015 heaping praise on one the world's worst monsters of the last several decades, Dick Cheney

😍
Here's Biden again - where a bust of the monstrous war criminal Dick Cheney was unveiled at the Capitol - where Biden stood by George W. Bush heaping more praise on Cheney: "I actually like Dick Cheney," Biden said, adding:

(Biden was the critical Senate Dem for the Iraq War):
Aside from being forced out of his first presidential race decades ago for a plagiarism scandal, Biden also got caught serially lying about his educational background - just like he got caught this time regarding getting arrested protesting for Mandela:

THE WAR WITHIN

The elites of the western world have the aim of snuffing out all resistance to their self-awarded right to control all chosen narratives.

The mass media of each & every western nation or ally are complicit in this task.

They are engaged in a war within.
THE WAR WITHIN

@JeremyCorbyn was targeted with an anti-Semitic smear. @BernieSanders is being targeted now with the same.

This is simply the latest tactic of western elites to destroy all those with alternate narratives to their own.
THE WAR WITHIN

Western elites see their power to influence/determine world events diminishing rapidly with their imminent eclipse by primarily China & those allied with China.

For this reason they are fighting a war on all fronts including within their own nations.

THE HYPOCRITICAL WEST | BLINDED BY POLITICAL GROUP THOUGHT & MSM FAKE NEWS

‘Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.’ - Matthew 7:1-5

What are the reasons for western hypocrisy?
THE HYPOCRITICAL WEST | BLINDED BY POLITICAL GROUP THOUGHT & MSM FAKE NEWS

The political & media elites of the West, with their descent from reality into a self-serving group thought, skewed alternate version are responsible for bringing the world to the edge of catastrophe.
THE HYPOCRITICAL WEST | BLINDED BY POLITICAL GROUP THOUGHT & MSM FAKE NEWS

The West is submerged in a deep soup of propaganda & political hypocrisy that has created the foundation for a world war.

This is not a war to come but a war that has been ongoing since at least 2001.

IS PUTIN A NEW HITLER?

We ask this question because this is the implication behind the attacks by many western political & media elites on Vladimir Putin.

Putin is singled out for attack. Many of the attacks are subtle but consistent over time. Others are more open & obvious.
IS PUTIN A NEW HITLER?

You will have noticed that where Vladimir Putin & the Russian state are concerned allegations become stated fact within a remarkably short time.

A plethora of mere assertions are quickly converted to known fact.
IS PUTIN A NEW HITLER?

Vladimir Putin is primary boogie man for the West, a figure of contempt accused of being a thief on a grand scale, an anti-democratic demagogue & instigator of murder, a supporter of other detested leaders & by implication the most evil man on the planet.

THE CROSSROADS OF INFLUENCE

The West has been able to afford aid to a variety of countries in the past. This was never truly humanitarian aid but a means of maintaining its grip on those countries in order to maintain its interests.

As the West descends financially others rise.
THE CROSSROADS OF INFLUENCE

The West will, from this point onward, lose its financial predominance which will be broadly assumed by the East.

China will be the powerhouse economy of the future & with this fact comes inevitable consequences for the West.
THE CROSSROADS OF INFLUENCE

As it rises further China will master all existing technologies & will be the genesis for many more. The products stemming from these technologies will be produced more efficiently than in the West.

The elites of the West know this & are panicking.

IN PLACE OF EVIDENCE

We examine the tendency for western online news & official communications purporting to be news to be opinion-based, speculative & often concerning accusations where no supporting evidence is given & comparing this tendency to group-thought & propaganda.
IN PLACE OF EVIDENCE

There was once a child alone, threatened by wild savages! A mother was about to be raped by a vicious psychopath in her own home! A fair-haired maiden was about to be burned alive & eaten by a terrible, fire-breathing dragon!

SO OUR STORY BEGINS...
IN PLACE OF EVIDENCE

How many times have you read about the fraudulent presidential election last year in Venezuela? It must surely be a great many by now. How many times did you hear or see any evidence presented to back up this statement? Did it represent fact, or opinion?

POLITICAL CROOKS ARE IN FULL COMMAND

Political crooks are now in full command in the USA, in Brazil & elsewhere in Latin America. Their combined aim is clearly to achieve the entire sub-continent as a Mafia-like fiefdom where all resources can be exploited mercilessly.
POLITICAL CROOKS ARE IN FULL COMMAND

So far the response from the USA’s traditional allies in Europe has been extremely muted. Perhaps they have simply been stunned into a state of unbelief, who knows? Western MSM appears likewise to have lost its collective tongue.
POLITICAL CROOKS ARE IN FULL COMMAND

Trump, Bolton, Pompeo & Bolsonaro have combined along w/ the @CIA in a nefarious combo seemingly intent on making their first conquest on the home front, the elimination of Maduro in Venezuela & the imposition of elite corporate-backed will.
