Joe biden now heads the pack to clinch the Democratic Party nomination after the former us Vice President chalked up big wins in the latest round of primaries to all those who have been knocked down all those have been counted left behind this is your campaign. Just over a week ago many of the pundits declared do this. Now are very much alive. Biden won in mississippi michigan missouri and idaho 3 of these are delegate rich states which rival Bernie Sanders picked up in 2016 thats led to biden being presented by much of the media as the candidate best place to be trump in november despite some notable gaffes along the way up and explains. The race for the democratic nomination is down to 2 horses and its pretty clear where the bets are going there on joe biden the good guy its a time for us to beat all trump and it became very clear to me that joe biden is the right person to do that hes the nicest person ive ever met he is just a good guy and why not have a good guy in the white house after all for the past 3 years the media has been working very hard to convince everyone that pure evil has overtaken the u. S. Presidency but it doesnt take very deep digging to discover that you can rub off joe bidens good guy shine take a look at how he insulted Detroit Assembly plant worker who questioned his views on gun rights. He also has hinted that he believes that race and intellectual ability are somehow connected poor kids are just as brady just as towns white kids on top of that hes known to just make things up and say things on the fly that have absolutely no connection to reality we choose unity over division we choose science over fiction we choose truth over facts and a lot of ways joe biden sounds an awful lot like donald trump lets see if americans can tell them apart i bet youre as bright as you are good looking. Thats actually joe biden surprise we choose truth over facts. I was actually joe biden also poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids by the way. And actually biden and youre a lying dog faced pony soldier. Thats gotta be true and actually biden also the narrative is supposed to be that donald trump is a big mean bully and joe biden is a lovable adorable grandpa with good intentions and hes supposed to be way better than that wild eyed radical Bernie Sanders except dont you remember how recently everyone was bashing joe biden i just think by. It is declining i dont think he has the energy and he has been a skilled debater we saw him with sarah palin weve seen him in the past the question is does he still have his job and destroy native and is he how sure are busy can you imagine that man in a president ial did by with donald trump theres not enough popcorn in the world to do is how subtly biden inserts obama into every possible answer having significant mental faculties issues is everyone ok with biden being president of the United States when hes having difficulty remembering the name of you know politicians that hed be dealing with on a regular basis but now we are told that opposition to joe biden is a russian plot the kremlins english language media aim to influence americans on the home tough activity promotes conspiracy theories targeting biden one lording trumps efforts to investigate his heating political opponent predicted to trump will win a 2nd claimed that biden has called to be unraveling on some eyes that allegations of corruption are doing real damage to his president ial bid now the race is getting heated as the field has narrowed so the question is now will joe biden be able to keep that good guy image when its time to start taking shots at ronnie sanders. R. T. New york former new York City Council candidate mourning the loss of believes biden success may not be as spontaneous as it seems. In the beginning of this whole race i mean biden was coming forth then you know you know the Democratic Party says everybody youre going to do this everybody always the Corporate Media also starts to say all this negative noise about perry i think whats happening now is very interesting this is usually what the Democratic Party does is they pick their annoying to one and they do everything to rigs the entire environment theyre annoyed to get it it gets all the support and looks like theyre sort of a wife of course that coming to save the American People you see this kind of orchestrated think we are close to jet blue over everybody kinds of everybody falls in line to support biden whos kind of the chosen one i think when you when you have so much of that noise its very hard for the American Public to kind of see through that. As the coronavirus continues to impact countries around the world claims of discrimination and xenophobia have emerged in the u. S. Politicians have come under fire for connecting the virus which china and the city of. Everything you need to know about the chinese coronavirus can be found on one regularly updated website im shocked and dismayed that the g. O. P. Leader has referred to do coronavirus as a chinese coronavirus this liebling of the illness is embarrassing disrespectful of pensive and downright disgusting no one virus that began at the end of last year you called it the one Virus Chinese Communist Party has said that this is where the virus started so dont take my word for it take the haters. You despise the word the w. H. O. Has officially named this new type of coronavirus a certain american politician disrespecting science and the w. H. O. Decision jumped at the 1st chance to. Signatories china and with that we condemned these despicable practices meanwhile Health Officials say that new cases of the infection and its country of origin are in decline the number of global cases however continues to rise according to a report on tuesday people in china made up less than a point 5 percent of the number of new cases. To discuss this further were now joined by julio rivera editorial director for reactionary times now why are we seeing such reaction to it being called the chinese coronavirus virus after all its not the 1st time weve seen Something Like that theres the spanish flu for example. Yes definitely there is that there is a line disease that originated in lyme connecticut theres the west nile virus theres you know countless cases but i mean we live in this error of manufactured outrage obviously because its you know Kevin Mccarthy and its you know my palm pale and its leadership of the Republican Party in america thats gold going ahead in those characterizations of the virus recently that you know the political left in america and around the world quite frankly want to go ahead in call it some sort of a recess but the fact of the matter is i mean you know i was as its as we know it did originate in china the Chinese Communist government which is very protective of information and very careful of its messaging and the information that its led out and has you know has you know already disseminated that piece of information that originated in china so there really is nothing wrong with calling it what it actually is so if thats then factually accurate isnt it still a bit worrying that weve seen a significant way about race or racism towards Chinese People. Well i mean ive noticed or necessarily have seen i mean i think theres you know theres real cases of racism around the world that are a lot more severe then then you know i dont see you know blanket wholesale attacks going on right now against Chinese People globally you know this whole stigmatizing didnt really occur when we had mers which was a predecessor a different type of coronavirus which was properly labeled middle eastern respiratory syndrome people werent attacking people from the middle east based on the fact that it had originated there so i think a lot of this is much ado about nothing there on the who also says that we should not refer to people as victims but people who have kobe had 19 or people who are being treated for kobe had 19 splitting hairs again oh most definitely i mean you know this is just another example of the sign of the times this is the world that we live in today people were very very careful with the wording of certain things and almost to a fault because at the end of the day the truth is always the truth and we have to be honest in sober about whats going on here we cant really take this suppose that pandemic which i think thats an overstatement in and of itself considering that you know were probably going to see a much larger number of deaths as a result of seasonal flu in america than we are of coronavirus where were just getting you know a sprinkling of cases here and there in different parts of the United States. Do you think in a situation like this theres actually just a fine line between paranoia and then looking at the other side of discrimination or is it a phobia yeah there most definitely i mean i think right now i think were making it out to be bigger than it is ive been traveling you know nonstop since december and you know i see people in the airports all the time and you know somebody sneezes and everybody goes c
