David_j_roth: A decently funny and extremely foreseeable outcome here is that Biden does not step down, and in three months the Times endorses the guy they just said must leave the race for the good of the nation, for the good of the nation.

A decently funny and extremely foreseeable outcome here is that Biden does not step down, and in three months the Times endorses the guy they just said must leave the race for the good of the nation, for the good of the nation.

The wise thinkers of the Times opinion department are handling this like WFAN callers after the Mets bullpen blows two out of three www.nytimes.com/2024/06/28/o...

Opinion | To Serve His Country, President Biden Should Leave the Racewww.nytimes.com The president’s inadequate performance in the debate made it clear he is not the man he was four years ago.

RFK Jr. is going to take them out falconing and get the endorsement

that's because in the next 4 months Biden is going to prove he has the energy for another term by serenading Mrs. Met with Girls by Beastie Boys

Why does the Times keep stepping on this rake?

To soothe the rattled nerves of a nation upon seeing Biden’s debate performance, the President must appear for an interview on Hot Ones.

It's only funny until you remember how they endorsed Cuomo with their noses up, as though someone had forced them to luncheon at 7-11.

The fact that they are calling for him to step down means, with certainty, that he will win in November.

That's next quarter. Why would they need to think that far ahead?

It's a really great idea to replace Joe Biden with every candidate that theoretically would lose by 10 points

Dave, I know a former A and Yankee who currently isn’t doing anything and could bring leadership to the dem ticket. What odds to you give Jason Giambi being the nominee?

It's the opinion section, not news. Op-ed's are universally pointless.

Writing a big long essay to sway other peoples opinions has a lot of point

This is why nobody should read the Op-Ed section of any publication anywhere. The NYT is an excellent news organization. As with all opinion sections, theirs is also garbage.

It is a perfectly reasonable thing for human beings to try to convince other people of things or explain their own points of view. Are the people getting paid to write the NYTs dogshit? Absolutely. But its not pointless.

Of course. But nobody has to read it. And nobody should.

The big "To be clear" in here seems designed to say "Look, Dash gets cranky when the lunch caterer is out of the Russian caviar, we know"

I believe they will endorse two candidates as is their way, just a question if RFK makes the top two

perverse incentives laugh at logic and accountability

You're right. But after the site's sudden defense of Biden - who just confirmed every age based criticism leveled against him - following months of legit Gaza criticism, it seems like you're more interested in sticking it to the NYT than anything else.

Okay

A significant increase in newer, 10 followers or fewer Bsky accounts popping up to wring their hands and give their learned opinion on the Constitutional order. Maybe this site does have some juice.

Not sure I'm newer, not sure that followers lend credibility. My literal actual face is my profile pic. But whatever man, if you want to talk about klout rather than substance, you do you.
