When trump said he was going to investigate the Biden family for elder abuse, it was glossed over. When Jake Tapper said Biden was in decline and his staff hid it. He was on every talk show and the news media reported it. The president of the United States said everyone was kissing his ass to make a trade deal. Crickets, no one called him out on his lies or his lies about who would ultimately pay those tariffs, the head of the Chinese government said it wasn’t true again crickets.
