Joe Scarborough, a leading figure on the Morning Joe show, isn’t shy about flaunting his special ‘in’ with the Biden campaign. Apparently, he interacts with the campaign’s top dogs and not just the trivial players. Talk about prestige!
Scarborough paints a picture of a supremely confident Biden campaign. These folks are practically sitting on cloud nine, feeling like they’ve got all their ducks in a row. He indicates that the campaign might have access to some top-secret intel that the rest of us plebs wouldn’t understand.
His assertion seems to be an attempt to boost the spirit of Biden’s supporters and revenue-providers, who might be disheartened by the recent New York Times/Siena poll. This poll suggests that Biden is falling behind in five out of six swing states, which can’t be doing wonders for the mood in the Biden camp.
In an episode of Morning Joe, Scarborough decided to have a go at contesting the credibility of the poll. He argued that the Times had some manipulative motives, intending to profit from producing several sensational articles about the shocking results.
The show also included a snippet from Jimmy Fallon’s night show. The liberal comedian joked about Trump needing permission from his parole officer to accept Biden’s debate challenge. This triggered a wave of hearty laughter from the audience of both shows. However, this ribbing could backfire by stirring up sympathy for Trump, who is undoubtedly finding the multiple lawsuits obstructing his campaign a massive headache. Let’s see who’s laughing last, Fallon.
At the end of the day, Scarborough and his crew seem overly confident in Biden’s chances despite the recent poll results. They insist that the Biden campaign is in tune with the realities of politics – mainly prioritizing fundraising and grassroots organization. According to them, Trump is failing in both areas and will continue to flounder. Also, they hint that the Biden campaign has a stockpile of damaging Trump footage that they can deploy at any time. Nevertheless, the reality on the ground might not align with their overconfident predictions. Let’s see who ends up having the final say.
