WEEKEND PDB – Democrats are pushing a fabricated narrative of foreign influence to help Donald Trump in the upcoming election. Are Russia and North Korea planning an ‘October surprise' that aids Trump?
NBC wrote: “Team Biden is increasingly concerned that the intensifying military alliance between Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un could vastly expand Pyongyang's nuclear capabilities and increase tensions in the Asia-Pacific region.”
BUT THAT IS ALL JOE BIDEN'S FAULT.
MEANWHILE – NBC News adds: “U.S. officials are also bracing for North Korea to potentially take its most provocative military actions in a decade close to the U.S. presidential election, possibly at Putin's urging, the officials said.”
“The timing, they said, could be designed to create turmoil in yet another part of the world as Americans decide whether to send President Joe Biden or former President Donald Trump back to the White House.”
“We have no doubt that North Korea will be provocative this year. It's just a matter of how escalatory it is,” a U.S. intelligence official said.
NEITHER NBC NOR ITS SOURCES PROVIDED ANYTHING TO BACK THESE RIDICULOUS CLAIMS.
After the publication of this story, Steven Cheung, a Trump campaign spokesman, said “the only ‘October surprise' will be the look of shock” among reporters when Trump wins re-election.
