Watch: Wife of CPAC chairman calls Joe Biden's aviators 'propaganda' to make him look tough

Political commentator and author Mercedes Schlapp along with her husband, Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) Chairman Matt Schlapp, are frequent guests on right-wing media outlets such as Real America's Voice.

On Sunday, the couple appeared on Steven Bannon's War Room and claimed to the show's namesake host that President Joe Biden's signature aviator sunglasses are left-wing "propaganda" props designed to make Biden seem tough.

"First, don't listen to the mainstream media because what they're trying to do is sell the propaganda that the Democrats are on the rise again," Schlapp said. "You'd know that when you see Joe Biden put on his aviator sunglasses and they give him this look of strength. And it's so – it's such a lie and so it’s so critical to just not let that get you down.”

I guess these two forgot who they had at the CPAC propaganda right wing fascist show in Dallas, and they more than likely even took a private plane ride over to see and have him appear on their fascist stage in Hungary, and has for that dirtbag Bannon who should have been thrown in jail yesterday....and if there was a Fairness Doctrine he wouldn't be able to pull this stunt everyday.....

There are hundreds of photos of him when he was VP, and he was wearing aviator sunglasses. This is one of the most fucking pathetic piles of bullshit they have come up with yet.

Guess a lot of people read those sites.

Why they think we want to read it is beyond me.

"Don't let it get you down that President Biden is so much smoother and cooler than the former guy." Nothing about programs or policies, no substantive counterarguments, just "Damn, but he looks good in those shades. He has to stop doing that!"

Whiny losers.
