TRUMP: I am going to drop daisy-cutter bombs on Seattle just cuz BIDEN: I'll have the Bob Salad — ha, COBB Salad, whoops. NYT: Biden's Gaffe Sends Shockwaves Through Democratic Party; Trump Pledges Infrastructure Changes to Northwest
what are we doing here? he accidentally said million instead of billion and then immediately knew it and corrected himself. he didn’t “flub a line” and then “make an effort to correct himself,” he did the speaking equivalent of a typo that you know you’ve made and instantly correct

they should perhaps turn their attention to the gibberish that has come out of Rump in the last couple months. He has genuinely seemed to be high on drugs, or have significant dementia. Jesus with this bullshit.

You have to wonder what the polls would be showing if they did that. He's starting to show his instability again after straining to contain himself for a week. I mean, if *I* can figure that out, how can they not? Or, how can they even pretend that's not a factor? It's so irresponsible.

this is exactly what they did to Hillary. I unsubscribed yesterday with a fuck you note and today got an email from them offering me to resubscribe for $.50 more a week than I was paying before. Shitshow over there

Seems like @nytimes.com doesn’t understand their subscribers

I’ve been reading it for over 50 years, now our paths violently diverge and I’m ok with that

Whoa whoa whoa this isn't fair to the NYT. they'd never bother to report on trump's comments in a headline. Maybe paragraph 19.

Apparently NYT people posing as journalists haven’t seen any of Trumps rally speeches 😏

He answered every question. Trump lied throughout.

omg yes, exactly this, except for an appearance of good arguments-both-sides false equivalence the NYT headline summary of the infrastructure project will end "...poor hit hardest."
Hope young Mr. Cameron enjoys his time under Trump2: Tour de Vengeance that he is so rigorously endeavoring to bring about along with his fellows in the politic-media complex.

There's nothing that makes one fluent in conversation like knowing every syllable you utter will be scrutinized. It's like having a critical boss hanging over your shoulder all the time, so close you can feel his breath on your neck. That always produced MY best work. 🙄
Infrastructure changes 🤣
Biden: 20,000 more Palestinian children dead? Have some more bombs, Bibi. And go ahead and fire these missiles into Russia, Zelensky. WWIII is good by me!

To be fair, we're *depending* on Biden to be the champion of the case against Trump, because, for whatever reason, a huge portion of the country doesn't get it yet. And Biden didn't do it.

This notion that everybody is decided is just plain wrong. I know a lot of really good people who are at the very least Trump leaning. They are not very engaged with the media. They exist in social spaces that are conservative. We *need* a candidate who can reach these people in small windows.

I'm going to argue that really good people don't consider voting Trump in 2024.

My wife's uncle is one of the kindest, most selfless people I know and is probably a Trump supporter. I've spent a lot of time trying to reconcile that in my mind.

The NYT (& WaPo, NBC/Comcast, ABC, CNN, FOX, Sinclair, etc.) poisons the well against Biden (as done against Hillary Clinton, Obama, Bill Clinton) by hyper focusing on anything negative about Democrats and ignoring anything real about Republicans. It’s a form of ad hominem/poison well attack.
