Have he said something even close to the stupidity of Trump? Like suggesting bleach against Covid? Why should all Trump opponents be measured with a different scale then Trump. Could you imagine the number of headlines required if Trump would get a headline every time he does anything on this scale?

We can say the media is being unfair to Biden, and it probably is. But it doesn't matter. Biden is clearly terrible at getting positive coverage - whether that's his fault or the media's (and I think we can all recognize it's at least partly his fault). If the goal is to stop Trump, we need someone who can get better coverage.

Exactly, because the media would be just as unfair to any candidate. Trying to find a candidate that the media would treat properly is a fool's errand.
