Also, whew, lemme tell you, one way to get blocked on here is to flood my mentions with "OH SO YOU HATE BIDEN/WANT TRUMP/YOU'RE TRYING TO DESTROY THE REPUBLIC" and so on because I posted a link to an article.
Look, idk what the right path forward is for that campaign and neither does anyone else. Screaming at strangers about it on the internet probably doesn't help.
But it's extra wild when the likely pivot would just be to swap in Harris, who would continue to have the exact same policies as Biden but without the burden of being a million years old.
But here's the thing, and I'll say it as someone who monitors and analyzes media: the bad media coverage isn't going to let up. It's going to drive his poll numbers down and it's going to be relentless. There's blood in the water, and maybe it's not fair, but that's the reality right now.
The only way it *might* stop is if he does something that really demonstrates that he's got some crazy-youthful energy/stamina/whatever that he maybe doesn't actually have. He should probably be on every TV show possible right now, doing every interview he can, just relentlessly in our faces.
Olivia Nuzzi (yes I know) has a massive article in NYMag where she describes seeing Biden at a fundraiser in April where he asked her for her name.
Joe Biden asked Olivia Nuzzi what her name was.
It was joever a week ago but it's never been more joever than today, until tomorrow
Some of them are ALSO so far up Trump's network that we should read accordingly.
NYT has now assigned Haberman to Biden stories.
That's ... a confession.
I think Trump assigned her to Biden stories.
NYT featured more stories about Hillary in 2016 that mentioned 'sexual assault' than they did on Trump. She had a byline in a lot of them.
not to shit on olivia nuzzi - though i'll admit i'm not a fan - and not trying here to weigh in on the current biden drama either way... but it's not shocking to me that biden didn't know/remember who she is. i almost feel like it would be a sign of pettiness if he did, based on her opinion of him.
