A CNN reporter used profane language during a live report Tuesday about President Biden’s campaign strategy as his campaign looks ahead to a potential general election showdown with former President Trump.

“President Biden himself personally instructed at some of his top campaign aides to be even more aggressive in highlighting some of President Trump‘s more inflammatory and wild comments,” CNN reporter MJ Lee said live on CNN. “We‘re told that the thrust of the president‘s direction was to significantly ramp up the campaign‘s efforts to highlight the crazy shit that Trump says in public.”

Lee noted what she said the Biden campaign sees as “the black and white contrast” between the president and Trump.

Her “crazy shit” language is attributable to the sources who spoke with CNN about Biden’s direction to his campaign, as highlighted in a story she published on CNN.com.

    The issue is that Trump is doing the same: trying to paint Biden as shit and he is decent at it. It results in moderates being apathetic to who wins so they do not turn out to vote. So it comes down to who has a more energized base. That happened in 2016. Clinton rightfully pointed out how fucking nuts Trump was and Trump did his best to make Clinton seem corrupt as fuck. Voter apathy was through the roof but Trump had the more energized base in states that mattered

    Biden is doing fine when it comes to the economy but few people seem to be seeing that. I often hear complaints about inflation and a bad job market. But the fact is that inflation went down drastically while keeping a very low unemployment rate. He is also chipping away at student debt little by little. But I often hear people complaining that few people are getting relief because each time only a few thousand people are helped. All of those are positives but I would not say they are marketed very well.
