President Trump’s influential supporter Rupert Murdoch is telling close associates he believes Joe Biden will win the election in a landslide.
The Australian-born billionaire is disgusted by Trump’s handling of COVID-19, remarking that the president is his own worst enemy, that he is not listening to advice about how best to handle the pandemic, and that he’s creating a never-ending crisis for his administration, according to three people who have spoken with Murdoch.
In response to an email inquiry for this report asking him if he believes Biden will win in a landslide and his thoughts on Trump’s handling of coronavirus, Murdoch responded, “No comment except I’ve never called Trump an idiot,”

Apparently, Rupert has been to each of Biden's political rallies and ended up walking away stunned at the massive turnout for 'Ukraine' Joe.

Beware of tyrannical billionaires who think their loot entitles them to run the world. They are no better than Marxists and Communists.

Mr. Murdoch is mad at Trump for Donald criticizing Fox news.

I'm sure he doesn't know anyone who is voting for Trump.

Every LEFTIST pub relies on anonymous sources to fabricate “narratives.” So much of how they operate was designed by the Soviets...and the Left is so comfortable with it.

FTA: he is not listening to advice about how best to handle the pandemic
Murdoch isn't the first to say this and just like all others who've made this claim he does not say what this advice is. What exactly should Trump have done that he didn't do? Should he have mandated masks and lockdowns like so many European countries did, the EU countries that are currently experiencing a "second wave"?

Rupert Murdoch must have missed that not a single person showed up at the Biden/Harris rally in Arizona a few days ago, and President Trump is drawing huge, enthusiastic crowds.
Without massive Democrat voter fraud, President Trump is going to be re-elected; possibly by a landslide.
Massive voter fraud seems unlikely as we're reading many articles exposing relatively meager attempts at voter fraud. The heat is on! This heat has to be giving second thoughts to potential Democrat fraudsters. Even the Mafia cooled it when the heat was on.

When you have a MSM reporter asking where is everybody when reporting from a so called rally for Biden, and then putting a scene of an empty area where people are supposed to be on a newscast, one wonders how Biden is going to win in a landslide. They can't do it all by cheating.

What does he not like about how Trump handled the COVID outbreak?
Trump didn't shut down travel quicker?
Trump didn't run the country like a dictator, but let FEMA work directly with the 50 governors directly instead?
Trump didn't reverse Cuomo's disastrous Nursing home edict?
Trump didn't build ventilators quick enough?
Even Fauci praised Trump for his actions, and stated he followed the recommendations of the Task Force.

While what Murdoch is saying is nonsense, the more dim and independent voters who hear will be manipulated into voting dim. The dims and msm have perfected the art of propaganda.

I remember when he supported Hillary for Senate. Then he was thinking about preserving his assets, just in case. These guys have to protect their companies above all else. In this case, though, I agree with No. 3.

Murdoch has never been a conservative. He just recognized there was a market for conservative people and made money off of it. He may also be very aware of the fraud involved and may think, when all is said and done that the 'sheeple' will grumble and bow to their new masters once all the cheating is done.
At this point, with everything the Dems and their allies have done, I think there IS going to be a bloodbath if that happens, and anyone who contributed to the attempt to steal America will die or flee the country. This will include not just the politicians, but Academia, Religious Leaders, Entertainment blatherers, Silicon valley right down to the secretary pool, and bureaucrats who have 'guided' government for decades.
There is a LOT of RAGE grudgingly being contained. An openly stolen election will be the spark. What comes after that only God knows.

Forget about internationalist billionaires as they do not have America’s best interests at heart, but you can’t say that about Trump.

One wonders how much of Murdoch’s fortune would he be willing to take to Vegas and put on Biden’s nose.

ok, three people report a remark which Murdoch declines to echo, and ambiguously throws shade on. I would call it a family discussion, which Saints James and Kathryn tattled on, and that it is worthless as a reflection of what their father actually thinks. I suppose they wore him down. I'd say they are two and some butler or something is number three.

That may be Rupert's wish but it has nothing to do with reality. There are enough Trump signs in my neck of the woods to build a skyscraper, that includes the one that my POA forced me to take down. I just moved it to the main gate. Biden signs are as rare as Black Lillies.

Rupert go back to Australia and take Bruce Springsteen with you. On second thought, no, don't do that to our Aussie friends.

We already have sufficient proof that Rupert Murdoch is a Leftist jackass. Why does he feel the need to keep piling up the evidence? He is going to completely ruin the only semi-conservative media outlet left on the planet.
