CNN Scrambles to Explain Away Joe Biden Saying 2022 Midterms Could Be “Illegitimate”
Well, this is awkward.
CNN hosts scrambled to explain away Joe Biden’s remark during his car crash of a press conference when he said that the 2022 mid-term elections could be “illegitimate.”
Former President Donald Trump was vehemently monstered by the media both in 2016 and 2020 for suggesting the election outcome could be compromised.
Following the riot on January 6 last year, Trump’s so-called undermining of the election process was blamed for the raid on the Capitol itself.
Tens of millions of Trump supporters who believe the 2020 election was rigged have also been denounced as everything from dangerous radicals to domestic terrorists.
So when Joe Biden questioned the legitimacy of the upcoming election during a live press conference, the media was placed in an invidious position.
Biden was asked by a reporter if the election could be considered legitimate if he was unable to pass his voting reforms.
“It all depends on whether or not we’re able to make the case to the American people that some of this is being set up to try to alter the outcome of the election,” Biden responded.
This second attempt from Biden on whether the election will be legit is even worse.

“I’m not saying it’s going to be legit,” Biden added, before noting, “The increase in the prospect of being illegitimate is in direct proportion to us not being able to get these reforms passed.”
Both Maryland Senator Ben Cardin and West Virginia’s Joe Manchin quickly expressed concern at Biden’s rhetoric.
CNN hosts also scrambled to explain away Biden’s clumsy response.
“Well, particularly the first part, Anderson, what he said was–actually, the entire thing, but particularly the first part was, probably the most jarring to hear a president of the United States who is not Donald Trump even suggest, ahead of time, that an election isn’t legitimate,” said Dana Bash.
She continued, “Having said that, the important thing to keep in mind is what he was trying to say, and that is in places like Arizona and places like Georgia, especially, that will determine, votes will determine not only the governor’s race, but this balance of power in the Senate, you have another Senate race there. The laws that were put in place in Georgia were such that the legislature — the Republican-led legislature has the ability to take the power away from the secretary of state to determine an election.”
“That is what he was trying to say, but it’s not exactly how he said it, which is why it was so jarring. The people who know what he was trying to say get it. But still, with this kind of language, given where we are with the Republican party and how you have a former president trying to continue to sew doubt and claim that the election in 2020 was stolen, which is a total lie. That is an area where I know talking to Democrats they believe the president needs to be a lot more nuanced,” Bash added.
This serves as yet another reminder as to why Biden barely ever holds press conferences.
After she lost in 2016, Hillary Clinton also repeatedly questioned the legitimacy of the election, blaming Trump’s win on the baseless Russian collusion conspiracy theory.
“It’s OK when we do it!”

Despite continued questions over his mental degradation, Joe Biden has reportedly told Al Sharpton that he plans to run again for president in 2024.
Biden made the remark during a meeting with with the leaders of black civil rights groups at the White House last month.
An official from Sharpton’s National Action Network (NAN) told NBC that Biden had informed Sharpton of his plans to seek re-election.
“I’m going to do it again. I’m going,” Biden reportedly said, according to the reverend’s description of the conversation.
That comment isn’t going to be welcomed by the majority of Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents, 56 per cent of whom told an ABC News/Washington Post poll in late September that they didn’t want the 79-year-old to be their party’s candidate.
Whether Biden is telling the media one thing and close allies another is a definite possibility, given his other remarks.
When asked during an interview with CBS 60 Minutes whether he had made a “firm decision” on whether to run for re-election, Biden prevaricated.
“Look, my intention, as I said to begin with, is that I would run again,” Biden said in response, before adding, “But it’s just an intention. But is it a firm decision that I run again?” That remains to be seen.”
Biden would be in his mid-80’s by the time he left the White House if he won again in 2024.
Given that barely a day goes by without him embarrassing himself publicly, it seems like a stretch to suggest that Biden would perform anywhere near adequately in presidential debates two years from now.
The latest example occurred during a speech in Puerto Rico on Monday, where Biden had difficulties speaking and pronouncing words.
As we previously highlighted, former White House physician Ronny Jackson says that Joe Biden “won’t finish his term” because “his mind is too far gone.”

Leftist Former Italian PM Says ‘Return of Fascism’ Narrative is “Absolutely Fake News”
Asserts Georgia Meloni’s victory is not a “danger” to democracy.
The notion that right-wing candidate Georgia Meloni’s victory in Italy represents a threat to Italian democracy or the return of fascism is “absolutely fake news,” according to the country’s leftist former Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.
Whoops, narrative fail.
Meloni’s center-right coalition swept to victory in Sunday’s elections, easily defeating her left-wing opposition.
This prompted a wave of hysterical media coverage, with numerous publications warning of the “return of fascism in Italy,” due to the far-right origins of Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party.
However, such concerns were dismissed by an unexpected figure, former leftist Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.
Matteo Renzi was the Italian prime minister from 2014-2016. He’s a lefty but tells CNN:
‘Personally I was against Georgia Meloni. I’m not her best friend. We are rivals but she is not a danger to democracy. The idea there is a risk of fascism in Italy is absolutely fake news.’ pic.twitter.com/F1QXqcLDMo

“Personally frankly speaking, I was against Georgia Meloni, so I’m not her best friend…we were and will be rivals always,” Renzi told CNN.
“At the same time, I think that is not a danger to Italian democracy, he added.
“The idea there is a risk of fascism in Italy is absolutely fake news, she won because of populism,” the former Prime Minister asserted.
Renzi was the Prime Minister of Italy from 2014-2016 after serving as the Mayor of Florence, a traditionally left wing city, before that.
Meloni herself has repeatedly asserted that she is not a fascist and merely wants to represent the interests of Italians and not those of “nihilistic globalist elites, driven by international finance.”
Of course, merely to take that position guarantees vilification by an establishment which has repeatedly tried to create a moral panic around populism by asserting it represents a return to the 1930’s.
