anyone notice they never do a wide shot of Biden's so called rally. I guess they don't want us to see how few showed up🤣🤣

This could help explain why Biden’s approval rating actually went UP when he was on vacation, and then things went back to normal when he got back to calling half the country semi-fascists.
