Today we’re discussing Joy Reid, a prominent television host who recently posted a wild social media video.
But first, let’s discuss Reid’s remarks during the Republican National Convention. As is common knowledge, President Biden had to postpone a speech in Las Vegas due to a positive Covid test. Reid caused heads to turn by dismissing Trump’s close encounter as merely a “photo-op” and highlighting a contrast that attendees were drawing between Trump’s vitality and Biden’s perceived weakness. She went further, postulating that Biden’s recovery from Covid wouldn’t also project an image of resilience.
As can be expected, social media was swift to react.
Reid continued, however, expressing discontent with the handling of Trump’s situation by the Secret Service, which allowed photographs to be taken shortly after Trump was endangered at a gathering in Butler, Pennsylvania. She labeled the entire event as a “strange scenario,” but the fact that Trump recovered and appeared at his convention was celebrated as an indication of robustness.
She then raised a ridiculous idea: If Biden recovers from Covid, wouldn’t that equally demonstrate resilience? After all, Biden is older than Trump and has survived a disease that can often be lethal for people in his age group.
By the way…Why wouldn’t Biden recover? He’s vaccinated, he’s boosted, and no one around him appeared to be alarmed because nobody around Joe was wearing a mask.
MSNBC’s Joy Reid just said Trump surviving an assassination attempt is viewed "as a sign of strength,” and she thinks Joe Biden recovering from COVID should be seen the same way.

But, folks…Believe it or not, that is not Reid going off the deep. There’s more…
Reid posted a social media video bizarrely claiming that former President Trump’s attempted assassination was staged.
I think we could agree that this is what advanced stages of Trump Derangement Syndrome look like.
After watching this video, one has to wonder why MSNBC didn’t sideline Reid as well as Scarborough because this is just insanity.
