Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden finally emerged from hiding in his basement in his first public appearance since March to lay a wreath at a Delaware Memorial Bridge Veterans Memorial Park near his home.

He came out masked, with his wife, and laid a wreath.

Meanwhile President Donald Trump went to Arlington with the First Lady, Vice President Mike Pence, and his wife and laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns. He also attended ceremonies at Fort McHenry honoring the dead. While Trump and Pence did social distancing, they didn’t wear masks during the ceremonies.

But that isn’t how Sawyer Hackett, formerly with Obama for America, Hillary for America, Obama White House and now director of communications for Julian Castro, painted it. Here’s his misleading little tweet.

But Trump did golf during the weekend, the hack protested. Yes, and Biden did make a racist comment about black people not being black if they didn’t know to vote for him. I think most people know which is problematic and which isn’t. But it says something about Sawyer, being misleading and his excuses. He doesn’t care that he’s using Memorial Day to push a false impression.

But here’s a little uncomfortable fact for them.
