God Bless Paul Davies and the @PhillyInquirer: "The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump...There was only one person at the debate who does not deserve to be running for president. The sooner Trump exits the stage, the better off the country will be."
“Trump is a fucking criminal what the fuck are we doing here”
This is how I feel ALL THE FUCKING TIME. Trump is a criminal! How have millions of Americans, including a large portion of the media and one of the two major political parties, decided that doesn’t matter???
fuck the NYT, but this meme is not accurate. They have labelled him unfit many times, and in the article in which they call for biden to drop out, they still say they would unanimously choose biden over trump.
The way I read the meme— and I could be wrong, of course— is that after Biden had that bad debate, the NYT called for him to drop out. But after Trump was convicted of 34 felonies, the NYT did NOT call for Trump to drop out.
Why not?
The NYT continues to show its true colors.
Many writers on the NYT op-ed board have labelled trump unfit for office, repeatedly, including after the felonies. They are obviously not going to "call for him to drop out" because that is something you say to a person who can still be reasoned with. It's not the same situation at all.
This is the insane pundit-brain nonsense that I don’t understand: ‘Trump can’t be reasoned with, therefore don’t bother calling for him to drop out?’ That’s incredibly stupid and I’ve read it too much recently. Now is the time to increase pressure and more, not less, should be calling on him to drop
If your friend brought a dog to your house and they both started pissing on your carpet, you would have more luck reasoning with the person than the dog. hope that helps.
It really doesn’t! In fact ‘he can’t be reasoned with, so give up pointing out the obvious’ is so nihilistic it would embarrass Nietzsche
We’re dealing with reality here, not some asinine analogy. The natl press and others could be calling for Trump to drop and ppl should point out that they havent
Tons of national writers have said that trump is unfit and should not run. It's simply that you use a different format of argument with someone who can ostensibly be reasoned with.
You’re under the false impression that calls for a candidate to drop out are directed at the candidate. The point of making this noise about Trump is the noise. Sitting down and shutting up because hE cAn’T bE rEaSoNeD with is just nihilstic capitulation
