The real reason Joe Biden just decided to speak tonight
A couple hours ago, MSNBC reported on air that Joe Biden was only planning to speak tonight if he was declared the winner first. But just a few minutes ago, MSNBC announced on air that Biden is now planning to speak tonight no matter what. So what’s happening?
There are two schools of thought here. The first would be that Biden now expects (or has been informed) that one or more major media outlets are planning to call the election tonight, and he’s going to give his victory speech.
The second school of thought is that because the media is now negligently refusing to call the election for no good mathematical reason, Joe Biden is now simply taking charge of the process.
By announcing that he’s going to speak tonight, Biden is placing pressure on the media to go ahead and admit that the race is over and he’s won. And even if the media still refuses to call the race tonight, the American people are so tired of the race not being called for him, it gives him a great opportunity to address the nation as the unofficial de facto next President, and provide the leadership that the American people are desperately craving.
