Over the last week or two, MSNBC has blasted conservative videos of Biden as “cheap fakes.” The videos, often highlighting the senile actions of Biden, have been accused of being “manipulated” and “misinformation.” However, following Thursday’s debate, Biden’s condition was undeniable, forcing Ana Cabrera Reports to admit further videos won’t be needed as they lamented Biden was un able to respond to Trump’s “lies.”

Cabrera played a clip of Trump and wondered, “We know so much of what we heard there is not true, and yet time after time in answering questions, he spouted falsehoods and mistruths, you could call them lies, unchecked. I mean, what was your reaction to that?”

MSNBC Republican mourned that:

There was so many lost opportunities for President Biden, and I actually think he was probably really well-prepared, but he was almost overprepared. He had too much information … he just couldn't deliver the lines. And that goes to the underlying problem of his age, which he was supposed to show the American public last night that he could be ready for another four years, and lead this country. And what is very concerning going forward from this debate for President Biden is that there's a narrative now built in.

 

 

Distraught, Cabrera again wondered, “But does Trump just get a free pass for the lies?”

Del Percio gave her some bad news, “Yes, you know what, Trump is going to get a free pass for the lies for no other reason than the Biden story is bigger. Trump didn't blow up. He didn't set himself on fire. He lied. Everyone knows he lied. So, for that small sliver, they're in a really hard spot right now, especially those independents who lean right. They really weren't thrilled with Joe Biden, to begin with, but they voted country over party. Now, they're just freaked out about the status of their country.

Democrats have been reconsidering if Biden is the right choice in this election. Many wonder why they ignored Biden’s decrepit state until now, ignoring the obvious and writing off its proof as “fake.” But they can’t do that, they can’t admit their being wrong entirely, and so the media twists it. For example, Cabrera tried to give credence to the Biden campaign’s excuse that Biden just had a cold, “But I just wonder, if that's the case, if he should have just come out there right off the bat and said so, and said, ‘hey, look, guys, I know my voice isn't up to 100 percent tonight, I am fighting a cold, but I want to be here, this conversation's important, and I am a fighter, and I'm going to show that to you tonight by doing this, and let's get it on.’"

Unfortunately for her, Del Percio had even more bad news:

Well it’s a visual medium in television, and that slack jawed face that was basically frozen in place every time Donald Trump spoke, I would say that's the place where I'm really wondering what happened at debate prep because that was something he should have been really aware of and prepared for. That again, the mouth agape, they won’t need cheap fake videos, they can actually use videos from CNN and make--.

Yet another example of MSNBC trying to do damage control for Biden.

MSNBC Ana Cabrera Reports

ANA CABRERA: We know so much of what we heard there is not true, and yet time after time in answering questions, he spouted falsehoods and mistruths, you could call them lies, unchecked. I mean, what was your reaction to that?

SUSAN DEL PERCIO: It was -- there was so many lost opportunities for President Biden, and I actually think he was probably really well-prepared, but he was almost overprepared. He had too much information as--.

CABRERA: President Biden you're thinking?

DEL PERCIO: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, President Biden, excuse me. I think he was -- he just couldn't deliver the lines and that goes to the underlying problem of his age, which he was supposed to show the American public last night that he could be ready for another four years, and lead this country. And what is very concerning going forward from this debate for President Biden is that there's a narrative now built in. It started with his age and that built in. Now, the narrative is going to be for at least five or six days, should he step out of the race?

CABRERA: But does Trump just get a free pass for the lies?

DEL PERCIO: Yes, you know what, Trump is going to get a free pass for the lies for no other reason than the Biden story is bigger. Trump didn't blow up. He didn't set himself on fire. He lied. Everyone knows he lied. So, for that small sliver, they're in a really hard spot right now, especially those independents who lean right. They really weren't thrilled with Joe Biden, to begin with, but they voted country over party. Now, they're just freaked out about the status of their country.

CABRERA: Well, he had a soft voice, which was very obvious when he started to answer the first question and later, his allies and team were telling us it was because he had a cold, that his voice wasn't so strong. But I just wonder, if that's the case, if he should have just come out there right off the bat and said so, and said "hey, look, guys, I know my voice isn't up to 100 percent tonight, I am fighting a cold, but I want to be here, this conversation's important, and I am a fighter, and I'm going to show that to you tonight by doing this, and let's get it on."

DEL PERCIO: Well, it’s a visual medium, television, and that slack jawed face that was basically frozen in place every time Donald Trump spoke, I would say that's the place where I'm really wondering what happened at debate prep because that was something he should have been really aware of and prepared for.
