Now would probably be a good time for the Biden Administration act like dangerous cornered animals and doing something crazy to damage convicted felon former President Trump.
Go scorched earth, hellfire and brimstone, full-on nuclear. There’s no way to move past a bad news cycle like creating a worse one for the other guy. Team Biden are uniquely positioned to do so given the orange felon’s former residence in the same building. Let the MAGA media industrial complex scream that it was in direct response to the bad debate. Let James Comer and Jim Jordan scream that they’re going to be firing off subpoenas to find out who leaked it and what their motivations were even though it would be pretty obvious. The mainstream political media are like moths to a mosquito zapper hung on the porch of a double-wide in a Louisiana bayou, so turn a bigger one on.
If there’s anything damning that Team Biden were keeping the powder dry on for a bad day in the campaign cycle well here’s your bad day. A transcript of a Trump call with Putin, unverified intel from foreign sources, hints about the contents of the classified documents he stole, God knows what else exists in the archives of “the Deep State” and can be quickly passed along to reporters. Nothing better than forcing your opponent into reacting, especially when his cult is praising him for his objectively shitty performance that only “won” simply by delivering it with more verbal, but not logical, coherence than Biden did. Make them suffer the consequences of their hubris.
