Hillary Clinton graced the screens of MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Thursday, making claims that pit Joe Biden against Donald Trump as a black or white choice for the American voters – freedom versus danger, as she puts it. Isn’t that an expected narrative from a network like MSNBC?
Clinton basically asserted to the MSNBC audience that voters are left with no real option but to choose Biden over Trump. Labeling Biden as “old and effective” and crediting him for passing beneficial legislation, she contrasted him sharply with President Trump, referring to him as “old and dangerous”. Now, isn’t that a colorful way to put it? Clinton even insinuated that her own lead in the 2016 elections deserved to be far wider than it was. To me, it seems like the Democratic camp is playing only by their own rules.
Things got all the more interesting in a Manhattan courtroom where adult film actress Stormy Daniels ascended the witness stand last week. Daniels’ testimony has sparked renewed interest in Clinton’s past hushed accusations against Trump – accusations mainly centered on his alleged attempts at suppressing and silencing stories detrimental to his electoral interests. All of this coming from Clinton, who herself, along with husband Bill, has an authentic history of muffling the voices of women accusing them.
To add to the spectacle, Joe Scarborough felt the need to wax poetic about his Trump-Nazi comparative commentary yet again. Encouraged, Clinton did not hesitate to indulge in the melodramatic discourse, shedding elaborate light on her views of Trump as a fearsome dictator. It’s alarmingly clear, isn’t it, how some liberal favorites are intent on turning every issue into a dramatic spectacle and losing the real public interests in the process?
In the end, Clinton’s appearance on MSNBC offered nothing new or constructive to the American public. Instead, it reiterated the existing, skewed liberal narrative that Biden is the only worthwhile contender in the upcoming elections, leaving no room for a nuanced debate or balanced discussion. Not surprising, considering the source, but disappointing nonetheless.
To conclude, it is disheartening that prominent political figures spend more time creating biased narratives and sowing discord among the American people, rather than fostering unity and working for the progress of the nation. We should be having fair, democratic discussions, not biased echo chambers that push one-sided agendas.
