MSNBC’s Joy Reid has responded to the news that Democrat President Joe Biden has caught Covid by praising his “strength.”
During the broadcast of her propaganda show on Wednesday, Reid also attempted to claim that Biden recovering from Covid is “exactly the same thing” as President Donald Trump being shot and narrowly surviving an assassination attempt.
Reid then deceitfully tried to suggest that the assassination attempt was staged in order to give Trump an “iconic photo-op.”
“These two men are both elderly,” Reid said as she tried to equate catching a mild illness to being shot.
“Donald Trump is an elderly man who, for whatever reason, was given nine seconds to take an iconic photo-op during an active shooter situation.
“Weird situation, we’ll figure that out one day.”
Reid also tried to suggest that the media is misleadingly portraying Trump as surviving the assassination attempt and shortly returning to the campaign by appearing at his party’s convention as a “sign of strength.”
“This current President of the United States is 81 years old and has Covid, should he be fine in a couple of days, doesn’t that convey exactly the same thing?
“That he’s strong enough – older than Trump – to have gotten something that used to really be fatal to people his age,” Reid said.
“So, if he does fine out of it and comes back and is able to do rallies, isn’t that exactly the same?”
The White House announced on Wednesday that Biden contracted COVID-19 and will self-isolate in Delaware.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said the president was “vaccinated and boosted” and was experiencing mild symptoms.
Reid said that Biden contracting Covid is an opportunity for him to show how to be responsible.
“And it’s also, a quite an interesting opportunity for President Biden to also show being responsible,” Reid said.
“I assume he’s going to put a mask on when he gets inside Air Force One and not spread Covid around.
“But also to remind people of what hell we went through with Covid because of Donald Trump,” Reid falsely claimed.
“Here is a great messaging opportunity for President Biden to bring out the tape and remind people of how many people died; a million people are no longer with us.
“People’s grandmas were dying alone with their iPad.
“A great opportunity and messaging opportunity should the White House choose to take it.”

Reid whines that Trump surviving an assassination attempt is viewed “as a sign of strength.” She suggests Biden recovering from COVID should be celebrated the same way: “If he does fine…and is able to do rallies, isn’t that exactly the same?”

On Instagram’s Threads, Reid questioned the nature of Trump’s injuries from the assassination attempt.
“I have many questions!” Reid wrote.
“Like where are the medical reports?
“What caused Trump’s injury and what was the injury? Sheapnel? [sic] Glass? A bullet?
“Where were the three attendees who were shot seated or standing relative to Trump?
“Why was Trump allowed to stand and pose for photos, fist-pumping for nearly ten seconds while asking about his shoe when there could easily have been additional shooters?”
