In a bizarre move, former Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill was on MSNBC’s Morning Joe this week encouraging liberal news outlets to stop fact-checking President Joe Biden.
“You know what the rest of the world sees right now? They see America with the strongest economy. They see America with the most advanced technology. America’s universities still the brightest light on the horizon in terms of academics and research. They see American companies exceeding in terms of their global reach,” McCaskill states, in the face of obvious evidence to the contrary.
Then, she makes a predictable pivot.
“But you know what they really look down their nose at? They look down at Donald Trump being a leader…The only blemish on this great country worldwide is Donald Trump.”
“And can I make a suggestion? I move that every newspaper in America stops fact-checking Joe Biden until they fact-check Donald Trump every morning on the front page — it is ridiculous that The New York Times fact-checked President Biden.”
