Trump Campaign Slams Fox News Director Who Called Arizona For Biden: ‘A Clinton-Voting, Biden-Donating Democrat’

Anger towards Fox News from Team Trump has boiled over as the President ’ s campaign issued a statement calling the network ’ s Decision Desk director Arnon Mishkin “ a Clinton-voting , Biden-donating Democrat.
” The Trump campaign has been livid ever since the network called Arizona – many believe prematurely – for Democrat Joe Biden on election night .
It was a call that the New York Times would later admit was “ a bold call that instantly changed the tenor of the night.
” In a statement emailed to the media , the Trump campaign declared : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the scale and declared Joe Biden the winner before the votes were counted.

Several other media outlets have refused to place Arizona in the Biden win column nearly two days later .
“ Five major election decision organizations have refused to follow Mishkin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Arizona , ” the campaign stated .
Mishkin adamantly defended his decision , as did Fox News politics editor Chris Stirewalt .
“ The president is not going to be able to take over and win enough votes to eliminate that seven-point lead that the former vice president has , ” Mishkin insisted .
“ I ’ m sorry … we ’ re not wrong in this particular case.
” Stirewalt added , “ The reality is that the margins are too significant , we feel very confident in the call , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ made it.

It was a call that the New York Times would later admit was “a bold call that instantly changed the tenor of the night.”
In a statement emailed to the media, the Trump campaign declared: “A Democrat operative put his finger on the scale and declared Joe Biden the winner before the votes were counted.”
That operative is apparently Mishkin.

The director of Fox News’ election decision desk, Arnon Mishkin, voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and donated to Obama/Biden in 2008. He’s the one who called Arizona for Biden prematurely.

The Trump campaign did a little digging and revealed some information which might indicate Mishkin had no business being around a supposedly neutral election coverage team in the first place.

There Is No Appeasing These People
So why are people rioting? Are these election protests?
No.
The answer is clear to me: These people were going to create violence even if there was no George Floyd, police brutality, or Donald Trump.
The young “antifa” woke left’s goal is to cause chaos in the name of some fantasy socialist utopia they dreamed up in their freshmen poli-sci class.

“Death to fascism and the liberalism that enables it.”
These people aren’t talking about “liberals,” like you and I would describe American Democrat voters.
They mean liberalism in the classic sense – the Enlightenment philosophy enshrined in our Constitution.
Freedom of speech, association, to bear arms, of religion, etc. That’s the liberalism they are talking about.
That’s what they want to destroy.
That the Democrat might beat the Republican in the presidential race means little to these people – putting them in the minority on the left compared to overall Democrat voters.

Also on Wednesday , Reid said that if election litigation makes it to the Supreme Court , “ do any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Amy Coney Barrett and those guys to actually follow the letter of the law ?
No.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-11-06--Biden Reiterates That If President, He Will Immediately Rejoin The Paris Climate Agreement

Joe Biden reiterated on Wednesday that if was elected president , the United States would immediately rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement .
That same day , the Trump administration officially pulled out of the Paris Climate Agreement , three years after the President announced he would do so .
The same day , Joe Biden swore that “ in exactly 77 days , a Biden Administration will rejoin it.

In the climate section of his campaign website , he made clear that a Biden administration would not only re-enter the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lead a major diplomatic push to raise the ambitions of countries ’ s climate targets.
” “ Biden was there alongside President Obama to rally the world to get to Paris ; and he will be prepared on day one of his presidency to take it to the next level , ” it continued .
“ Biden will use every tool of American foreign policy to push the rest of the world to raise their ambitions alongside the United States.
” The section on climate change and energy not only says that Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ revolution , ” but also “ climate justice.
” Further , Biden ’ s website claims that he backs the far-left Green New Deal as a “ crucial framework for meeting the climate challenges we face.
” The plan claims that polluters “ disproportionately harm communites of color and low-income communities , ” and says that Biden will “ make it a priority for all agencies to engage in community-driven approaches to develop solutions for environmental injustices affecting communities of color , low-income , and indigenous communities.

Leftists Set To Take Control Under A Democrat White House ?
The hardcore leftists within the Democrat Party , such as members of the ‘ Squad , ’ like AOC and Ilhan Omar , are set to hold Biden ’ s feet to the fire to push him even further left .
Omar told Axios in October that they were ready to fill his cabinet and push Biden to “ act accordingly ” on policies such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is massively unpopular in his birth state of Pennsylvania , a state which will be crucial to deciding the result of the election .
It ’ s not only on climate action where progressives would push Biden .
White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said last month that AOC and and Omar would be “ pulling the strings and calling the shots ” in a Biden administration , and make him pack the Supreme Court with leftist judges .
AOC herself claimed that they should look to govern without bipartisanship .
She claimed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all three branches of government , they should go for “ leaps in policy ” to show what a Democrat agenda can really be like .
The chances look slim for Democrats to take all three branches , but there should be no doubt that progressives will look to drag Biden as far left as possible .
