Why isn't Joe Biden out there defending himself?

I have to disagree with you on this. Trump's claims against Biden are so blatantly absurd and ridiculous. Why should Biden waste his time dignifying this nonsense with a response?

It's because Trump's claims are not blatantly absurd. They're just absurd. It takes a bit of digging to realize they're absurd. Most people don't dig.

All people keep hearing from Trump and Giuliani is that there is a video of Biden bragging about firing a prosecutor who was investigating his son. That's false, but it's not obvious unless you do some digging. Plenty of people believe this.

If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it.
 
I'm getting a bit annoyed watching Giuliani go from show to show peddling is absurd conspiracy theories. It's only the journalists out there defending him with facts. But why isn't Biden going on CNN, FOX, MSNBC, etc making his case and defending his name?

We need a president who can fight these crooks and thugs. He needs to get mad and go out there and go after Giuliani's conspiracy theories.


Team Biden To Networks: Stop Booking Rudy For Interviews

"Networks please stop booking Giuliani" Get real! Joe should get booked and refute the claims.

Biden said the accusations against him were false.

Joe then asked if Ironman fought Superman, what would happen?
 
Romney never countered Harry Reids accusation about not paying taxes strong enough....it hurts a candidate not to refute strong allegations like Trump is throwing at Biden.

You folks don't get it....the way Trump is acting...is the way an innocent person acts when hit with accusations of treason.....If you don't fight for yourself how can you expect me to fight for you....

"Strong allegations"...LOL. Only in the minds of mentally disturbed Trump cultists. This Biden nonsense has already been refuted multiple times:

From the perspective of Ukrainian legislation, he did not violate anything,” former Ukrainian prosecutor general Yuri Lutsenko told The Washington Post in his first interview since the disclosure of a whistleblower complaint alleging pressure by President Trump on Ukraine’s president, Volodymr Zelensky.

Because he's hoping Congress and the media will make this go away...lol
 
All I ever wanted is that those be properly investigated. That includes a look into any loans Trump got from Deutsche Bank and Trump's tax returns. But Trump has fought every attempt to look at the facts. Even now his State Department is not cooperating with an impeachment inquiry. If he did nothing wrong, why not cooperate? Show them everything. He has nothing to hide, right?

Should Biden be properly investigated?

Just Maybe Biden won't allow trump to dictate the rules and won't be trolled into playing the game. Looks like it is trump that is hot water here and trump keeps talking (China). Biden only has to sit back and laugh

OK. Whoop-dee-do. Then Trump should have no problem producing this bs video for all to see. If people are going to just believe crap like this pulled out of thin air, then you simply cannot win that fight. The only people who are going to believe Trump are the hard core members of his cult, which you don't seem to understand.

It's obvious even to many dimwit Republicans that Trump is desperate and that's why he is doing this. If Trump really had something on Biden, he would have produced it months ago. Even most idiot Republicans know this.
 
I don't think he has to answer for his son. He can shut that down pretty easily.

If I were Biden, I would simply say, "I am not my son. My son is a grown man. He makes his own decisions. If I had hired my son to work in the White House like Jared and Ivanka then maybe it would be fair to ask me about my son."

Biden is on solid ground regarding firing the prosecutor. The EU, IMF, and Ukranian anti-corruption groups all wanted this guy fired. The prosecutor actually blocked the UK's efforts to investigate money-laundering by Burisma. The UK froze $23M in funds but the prosecutor refused to provide documents to support the case. The UK had to drop the case because of the prosecutor. There is absolutely no truth to Trump's claims. Biden needs to make that case.

But he shouldn't just play defense. He needs to go after Trump for hiring his daughter and son in law. He needs to ask about Jared and Qatar. He needs to bring up Manafort and his role in the corruption in Ukraine. He needs to bring up how many people around Trump are in prison.

Biden pulled strings to get his kid into the Navy. That needs to be investigated to see if there was any impropriety.

Mr. Trump is not in hot water. He is cool as a cucumber. You are a person in hot water if you're not patriotic, sir.

Strange. You consider this more serious than what Trump did.

Don't presume you are qualified to question my Patriotism, you sir, are not qualified.
Anything else to add or is that all ya got on the topic.?

Fair enough, that's obviously the strategy. But then they're complaining that networks need to stop allowing Giuliani on the air because he's pushing conspiracy theories. The correct response if for Biden to be out there countering Giuliani's nonsense.

Here you see Giuliani on a major network getting 15 minutes to smear Biden. Stephanopolous does little to defend Biden as he lets Giuliani speak and talk over him.

Wanna talk about the Bush's and the TANG or maybe bone spures....this is not a topic that works out for you

Everyday the WH contradict itself and makes itself look bad. No need to defend against people who can't keep their own stories straight.

Apply inappropriate pressure on the armed services to let his kid join the Navy wouldn't be a problem, to you?

He was selected as a direct-commission officer, which means he didn't have to do **** to earn the rank. They just gave it to him, after giving a waiver because of his age and a waiver because of past drug use.

Yeah, that needs to be investigated.

No, I disagree. While whining about the propaganda spreaders is a mistake that does not change the fact that trump is abusing his power and all Biden needs to do is sit back and watch trump bury himself. Never play you opponents game, simply point out their pathetic attempts to cover their their stupidity, this stuff is priceless

Do you still think Bush was AWOL? You know those docs that Rather used were fake. Right?...lol

If you can prove that Trump faked a medical condition to dodge the draft, I'd love to see it.

You're making a very bad assumption that people are actually taking Giuliani seriously. For crying out loud, he is being ridiculed just as much as Trump, if not more so.

The more Giuliani talks, the more it hurts Trump and helps Biden! You are over-thinking all of this.

Yeah, that needs to be investigated.

That wasn't the question. Let's try again: Do you consider this more serious than what Trump has done? Intellectual honesty...give it a try for once.

I won't hold my breath for an answer.

After they get done with Biden, they'll need to investigate Warren for fraud and plagiarism.

I have "got" very much indeed on the topic. How much I wish to share at this time is a separate matter, but I will put forward the observation that Joe Biden is cowering in fear at what awaits him if he is so unlucky as to meet Mr. Trump in the general election. This is why you are not hearing from him. Mr. Trump's opening salvo is just a taste of what he see's coming. Of course, it is all quite unnecessary. Mr. Trump does not need an atom bomb, so to speak. He could knock over Joe Biden with a push of a hand.

You're assuming people are not taking him seriously.

I had this dinner with an acquaintance I knew for years. He brought up Hillary Clinton Uranium One. This guy is an Ivy League doctor and he didn't know this was a debunked conspiracy theory. I had to explain to him why that story was false. Lies spread far faster and wider than any truth.

I hear real people, liberals, saying basically, "maybe both Biden and Trump are bad." When people can't figure out who is telling the truth, that's what happens.

I'm not going to keep arguing my point. I hope this strategy works for Biden but I for one am very disappointed that he's not out there fighting back.

Then Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer? I guess you'll be happy when the U.S. turns into a corrupt authoritarian state where enemies of the state are "investigated."
