Chuck Todd: Will Biden cost Harris the election?

[Metaphorical]

10. Chuck Todd's an unprintable, and has been for years

However, for all that I think Biden has done some incredible things, right now you're seeing a lot of people getting hit with layoffs. I'm in Seattle, where Microsoft, Amazon, Google and other large tech firms are still cutting staff after a brutal year last year, and Boeing laying of 17,000 isn't helping matters any. All of my wife's siblings have one or both spouses unemployed, and I'm getting by on sporadic contract work. While none of it is Biden's fault, it's easy to lay the blame there if you're not aware of most of the undercurrents.

On the other hand, one of the things that I think that Harris has done is paint herself as not being Biden. She's defending his record (which is good) but she's also making it clear that she has different priorities and approaches

Also, the MSM is unusually quiet about Trump's record or lack thereof. It's easy to say "hey, the economy was great, then Covid hit", but Trump was in office for three years when Covid hit, and the economy was on the edge of being recessionary during most of it. So yes, the MSM definitely has its thumb on the scales.
