The liberal media helped President Joe Biden by omitting his remarks about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “defeat in Iraq.”
The president mixed up the wars in Iraq and Ukraine in answering a question about the Wagner Group’s failed coup over the weekend of June 24. Some news outlets erased the president’s gaffes in quoting the reply, making it appear as if it was the president’s statement for 80 years. The old president made no mistakes.
Biden: ‘It’s hard to judge, but he’s clearly lost in the Iraq war’ Said, referring to Ukraine. “He lost the war at home and is a bit of a pariah around the world.”
NBC News omit “Biden was asked by reporters outside the White House by NBC News if the recent developments had weakened Mr. Putin. ‘ added.
USA Today’s report also didn’t mention the gaffe, adding only that Putin had “lost the war at home.”
“He’s losing the war at home, and he’s become a bit of a pariah around the world,” quoted USA Today. “And it’s not just NATO. It’s not just the European Union.”
