It’s a fact that Biden doesn’t get the same media coverage as Trump. However, this is an advantage at the moment. As the White House daily briefings become more unhinged and outright dangerous, Biden’s strategy of using the president’s own words against him are proving effective.
Ordinarily, I wouldn’t advocate a strategy of “please proceed, Mr. Trump” when his statements are literally risking human lives. But unfortunately, Trump is not going to stop spewing nonsense, so a strategy of amplify and distinguish is smart.
Hence, Biden’s sharp reply to Trump implying digesting disinfectants could “wipe out corona”:
In this case, no name is mentioned, but the implication is clear….Biden is NOT Trump. In these troubling times, exacerbated by Trump’s ignorance and gaslighting (when called out on the absurdity of his statements)—is more than enough.
And now that the president says he was being “sarcastic” about citizens ingesting disinfectants during a pandemic, Biden hits him hard, again.
Great job, Biden media team.
