Strange timing…
President Biden stopped by the White House press briefing on Friday; it’s the first of his presidency. Biden was asked about the election and the hurricane response — but it was the timing of the appearance that raised eyebrows over at CNN.
Biden hit the briefing room at 2:06PM — just two minuted after Kamala’s live rally in Detroit.
“We were actually about to go live to Vice President Kamala Harris who’s speaking right now in Detriot, Michigan … and yet you have the President of the United States coming out, clearly overshadowing her. Is that a communications mistake?” a CNN anchor asked pollster Frank Luntz.
“That’s a very good point,” Luntz said. “If they were coordinated … this would not have happened.”
Kamala took the stage in Detroit at 2:04p ET.
Biden entered the briefing room at 2:06p ET.

Biden dabbled in fear-mongering, telling Americans the election next month may be violent.
“I’m confident it will be free and fair. I don’t know whether it will be peaceful,” the 81-year-old Biden said in response to a question from National Public Radio’s Tamara Keith.
“The things that [former President Donald] Trump has said and the things that he said last time out when he didn’t like the outcome of the election were very dangerous,” Biden added.

Biden also spoke about the response to Hurricane Helene and called Kamala a “major player in everything we’ve done … her staff is interlocked with mine.”
🚨 YIKES — Joe Biden throws Kamala Harris under the bus and says he is in "constant contact" with her.
"We're singing from the same song sheet. She helped pass all the laws [that resulted in record high inflation]. She's a major player in everything we've done."
