Inside Joe Biden’s bizarre coronavirus bunker
By RYAN LIZZA

Instead, the Georgia primary was moved to May and Biden retreated to a makeshift studio in his basement at home in Delaware to broadcast Zoom videos that have had to compete — poorly, so far — with briefings from elected officials like Trump and Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who are actually responsible for dealing with the crisis. ...
“You've got a new campaign manager who’s got to socialize with the existing team and she has to do that remotely,” said John Podesta, the chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. “That’s challenging.” ...
The Biden campaign has not quite figured out what will replace the traditional set piece events of a presidential campaign. For now, in the teeth of the crisis, when attention is necessarily focused on the people in charge, Biden has two big problems.
The first is how can he actually do any events outside of his basement that will get attention and coverage? ...

Not much here beyond interesting word choice: BUNKER & BASEMENT in an article that also mentioned Creepy Joe & Paineater Podesta. Probably looking too far into this, but thought you goats would wanna give it a sideways glance too...

There's been rumours on /pol/ and Twitter that Biden's recent videos are fake. Also that the background is green screen. It could be this "makeshift studio" is in did a studio like something out of a recent episode of Better Call Saul.

Zoom allows you to choose a fake background for your videos. Almost everyone using Zoom does it.

Ya it's odd that MSM seems to point out that he's got a "makeshift studio in his basement" not a 'home studio' or interviewing outside or in his 7,000 SF East Coast Mansion. Doesn't frame him very presidentially.
Basement calls to mind two things : 1.) Loser living with his parents ... 2.) Creeper or prepper with something to hide ...
Besides freaking us all out about CV, or normalizing Joe for the voters, why would this be their word choice, or Joe's choice of setting?

Hey don't knock preppers. Plenty of people that would've laughed at them in the past are now acting crazy.

I'm one of them there preppers :) not knocking anyone - even basement dwellers, it's cheap and theres less 5G radiation.
Just saying the media manipulates the mass mind with these prejudices , characters , or archetypes - and their perceived value or worthiness. 'Basement' is not presidential, so what picture are they trying to paint?
