WTF Is Fox News' Jeanine Pirro Predicting About Joe Biden?

Fox News is not exactly known for their nuanced (or accurate) takes on politic discourse. Jeanine Pirro, specifically, has a reputation for saying such nonsensical things that it’s earned her a running bit on Saturday Night Live. But on Wednesday, Pirro managed to cross a line when discussing the 2020 election and Joe Biden's role in it.

Pirro appeared on the Fox News show The Five on Wednesday night to discuss Biden’s first public appearance with his running mate, Kamala Harris. The hosts were discussing a poll from a right-wing news site that found over half of people surveyed did not think Biden would finish his first term, were he elected. Pirro then weighed in, making some confusing and outrageous claims about whether or not anyone would even get to vote for the Democratic nominee.

I don't pay much attention to them until something hits the news. This seem interesting and a bit ominous to me.

more as a threat or backhanded encouragement for some one to employ a "2nd Amendment solution"

First drumpf says Barr is going to be taking action before the election that will make him go down in history, if he has the guts. Says its about the investigation Barr's been running on Biden & Ukraine. Then Johnson (who has gotten tons of dox from Russia) says he is bringing evidence that will disqualify Biden and now Pirro. I think PUtin has given them a bunch of lies and they intend to indict on this or to try. Sanders' folks also telegraphed this & said he had to be put into nomination so there'd be somebody to run if Biden gets disqualified. That's the worst treachery of all, in my book, if true.

Hopefully this is just on par with some of their other fevered dreams that came to nothing, but I am worried. He's desperate and he had pUtin's multi billions behind him and he wants to do this last minute so Dems will not be able to refute their Ruskie lies.

He makes a lot of promises that don't have any connection to reality. He'll release a "beautiful" new health care plan in two weeks. Mexico will pay for the wall.

This is just more of the same.

The public fell for the Russia/Giuliani/Comey ploy re HRC so don't know why this time would be different. Yes, some people are more sophisticated than they used to be and aren't falling for all the ploys anymore, but would a Biden indictment move the needle - I fear so. We know Russia gave Johnson a trove of dox from Burisma and Johnson's hearing are supposed to start soon to disseminate the lies and destroy Biden. Sanders' group thinks Biden could be indicted before the election, as does a bunch of Faux analysts, why?

I don't trust America to see through this fuckery, sorry. Yes, we will, but how about middle America, the Independents and the Repugs who were souring on drumpf? Could this be the method he steals the election this time, we know he will do anything and everything legal or not to secure his freedom.
