Amateurism On Steroids

More and more people are noticing that Beijing Biden will not take spontaneous questions from the media.  During the Trump administration, the most transparent administration in my lifetime, PDJT routinely took questions from the media.  This was on an almost daily basis whenever PDJT departed from the White House to go somewhere or arrived at a location where there were members of the press corps waiting.  These impromptu press conferences often lasted 20, 30, 40 minutes.  While some members of the press may have tried to trip up PDJT, the fact is there was give and take in these sessions that has not been seen between a president and the press corps in a very long time.

Apparently those running the administration have decided that those sessions were a strength of Trump’s connections with the American public.  Last week to bolster Biden’s rapidly diminishing status in America, they posted a video on YouTube purportedly showing Biden taking a spontaneous question (or two?) from the press somewhere in America.

If this actually happened, it will be a first for this administration.  But it seems highly unlikely that it did actually happen.  There are several weird things that take place during this purported session with the press.

First, Biden’s hands (see around the 8 second mark) magically pass through a foreground object.  Specifically they pass through a hand-held microphone.  Slowing the video to one quarter speed reveals other oddities.

First, Biden looks as if he’s walking against a green screen. His image is remarkably sharp, yet the scene behind him is very blurred. It is possible that this could be the way the camera is focused.  However, this is an effect that occurs with poorly done green screen productions.

It is unclear who shot the video.  However, there is the effect of the camera appearing to be moving backwards as Biden walks toward the “press.”  Was the press corps backing up while Biden walked towards them?

In the Rumble slow motion video, Biden’s hair seems to take on a greenish tint from around the 26 second mark into the slowed version.  This is also present on his forehead and neck.

And, of course, there is the magic of Biden’s hands passing through a foreground object.  Again, Biden’s hands appear sharp and distinct while the foreground object is supposedly fuzzy because it is too close to the camera.

This is an obvious fake.  This is an amateur hour green screen production.  This is an embarrassment to special effects people everywhere.  Of course, the usual cohorts tried to paint these ideas as some right-wing conspiracy theory.  CNN confirmed this idea so it must be true.  As I have stated in the past many ideas start as theories.  Evidence either proves or disproves a theory.  In this case the preponderance of the evidence favors a green-screen production.

This is almost as bad the amateur efforts of the State Department in their meeting with the Chinese in Alaska last week.  The entire administration appears to be amateur night on steroids.

The real question here has to be why do this?  Are these people really this inept?  Or, are the Democrats starting to undermine Biden as they prepare for a Harris Presidency?  Biden himself once again referred to Harris as President last week.

Biden is supposed to hold a press conference on Thursday.  How hard are they prepping Biden to answer the pre-arranged questions?  Will this press conference actually take place?  Will his performance determine how long they try to continue with this charade?
