Journalist Glenn Greenwald said Monday on Fox News that Democrats are “dismayed” by the realization that their “only strategy” may not work.
Greenwald appeared on “Jesse Watters Prime Time” and spoke about growing concerns about President Joe Biden's re-election. Fox host Jesse Watters pointed out that the mainstream media seemed to be “realizing” that 2024 could be a “regular election” and asked journalists for their thoughts on the media's expected disruption. Asked.
Greenwald said the corporate media's “desperate” strategy to help Biden win is based on ensuring former President Donald Trump is “convicted before the election.” The reporter elaborates that this is one of their “only chances” and that they are “panicking” as polls show even “loyal” Democrats are starting to waver.

“The part of the corporate media that is so desperate for a Biden victory, almost every part of the corporate media other than the networks we are talking about right now, has pretty much made their real strategy clear. , which is in some ways surprising,' ensuring that Donald Trump is convicted before the election,'' Greenwald said.
“That's why they're panicking, because they know it's really their only chance. And they look at the polling data, including the new poll that came out from NBC. The survey shows that even among voters who have long been loyal to the Democratic Party, such as young voters and Latinos, Mr. Trump is now losing support, tied with Mr. Biden and leading with Republican voters. Imagine what the corporate media is saying: They say Trump is a white supremacist, a fascist, a criminal, an insurrectionist, a dictator. We've spent seven years telling people that the American people are just ignoring them, and Trump's lead is growing. This is about how the legitimacy of these media outlets has collapsed. That says a lot.”
Watters interjected that Americans may not see either candidate before the general election because Biden refuses to give interviews and Trump is censored. Greenwald continues to insist that Biden is “cognitively incompetent,” which has become a major problem for Democrats.

“That's true, and right now the media is aggressively censoring President Trump's live coverage, while at the same time Joe Biden won't even do an interview with them. No one can meet either candidate. There will be an election,” Watters said.
“Obviously the Democrats know that among many problems, perhaps the most significant is the fact that Joe Biden is cognitively incapable. Anyone who looks at him gets lost; Anyone can tell by watching him lose his train of thought in the middle of a speech. “They tried to keep him away from the media even in 2020. He hid in his basement because of the coronavirus.'' , so I think that's why he won,” Greenwald said.
“This time around, I think it's desperately necessary to keep him out of the media because the American public already has great doubts about his cognitive abilities, let alone his policy failures. How can you do that in an election where you have big questions about your ability to do that?”
