Primetime Barack Obama!
For weeks, Donald Trump’s daily press briefings have been nothing more than thinly veiled campaign rallies. They haven’t helped Trump any, as evidenced by his still-terrible 2020 poll numbers. But it’s certainly inappropriate for the TV networks to keep airing this crap, particularly after Trump used his briefing yesterday to air an actual campaign ad.
Kurt Bardella of MSNBC has the right idea when it comes to fairness and equal time:
Given how much free air-time networks have been giving @realDonaldTrump every day, the least they can do is broadcast @BarackObama's entire video endorsement of @JoeBiden during primetime! https://t.co/SivcPWOZDJ
