This is, of course, untrue. But more perplexing, Trump repeatedly attacked Biden for wanting to shut down the economy. Pence is now saying Trump did exactly as Biden urged?
Put plainly: the Trump campaign continues to lack a coherent campaign message and, at the moment, seems to be taking credit for something they’ve repeatedly attacked Biden for urging.
This is called an incoherent message. ImageImage
Why did @Mike_Pence delete this? Image

It’s time for Senate Democrats to realize that they were given an explicit governing mandate by voters, and exactly zero of those voters will accept the filibuster as an excuse for legislative inaction.
Cannot emphasis this enough: Georgia, a historically Republican state, was given a choice between Democrats controlling the Senate to enact Joe Biden’s agenda, or divided government. Voters deliberately chose to give Democrats a mandate.
Senate Democrats are enabling Republican gridlock in a way that voters clearly and unequivocally chose to prevent just three weeks ago. It’s an insult to voters who expressed their desire for Democrats to control government and enact their agenda.

As the Trump presidency comes to a close, 390,000 Americans are dead, millions are out of work, and our democracy is at the brink of ruin.

To those pundits in 2016 who opined ‘How bad could a Trump presidency really be?’ know: You own this.
“Calm down! We’ll be fine!” they said.

“Trump preaches Kumbaya!” they said.

In the years after 9/11, every time there was a terrorist attack the media would ask ‘Where were they radicalized?’

Why is that question no longer asked? Fox News, OANN, right wing talk radio, Parler. That’s where today’s white supremacist terrorist is being radicalized.
The biggest national security threat facing our country today comes not from foreign-born assailants but from American-born white men. Yet police and press struggle to even call this threat what it is and call out the platforms radicalizing them.
If we are ever going to “unify” this country we need to be honest about what’s tearing it apart. An entire political party has been rotted to its core by nutjob conspiracy theories instigated by its propaganda outlets and bad faith elected officials.

Funny that the same pundits who spent four years urging Democrats to ‘understand’ Trump voters have no similar request for Republicans, after a majority of the country soundly rejected their politics.
In the weeks following the 2016 election, the press churned out dozens of sympathetic Trump voter profiles, chastising Democrats for failing to ‘speak to their issues.’ Where are these same profiles of Biden voters?
Where are the Biden Country stories?

Let me get this straight: The Washington Post breaks the news that foreign adversaries are interfering in the election to threaten Democrats, and the DNI immediately holds a press conference to say it’s actually interference against Trump?
This — quite clearly targets Democrats.
Quite interested to hear how an email that threatens voters with “You will vote for Trump on Election Day or we will come after you.” is somehow an attack against Trump and not an attempt to suppress votes among Democrats.

Press: Shares an unverified NY Post

Intel: It’s Russian disinformation.

Press: Our bad! We didn’t know.

...

Press: Ooo now look at these new texts!
It’s entirely reasonable at this point to ask whether journalists actually care if they’re conduits for a foreign adversary interfering in our election. So long as it’s click worthy, it seems many don’t care.
Major news organizations failed their readers during the 2016 election. Yet, following these systemic failures, not a single outlet conducted an independent audit to assess what happened, nor publicly acknowledged their failures.
