The Squid Game convention scenario being pushed by the pundit and donor classes is the worst possible outcome.
-- Infantilizing games
-- Brings out the worst in contestants
-- Sole purpose is to entertain the wealthy (donors)
-- Painful for normies to watch
-- Winner is profoundly wounded
This whole thing is so dumb. It remains an eminently winnable campaign, except for the fact that the psyche of the campaign staff and broader party are just absolutely shattered right now in a way that seems hard to dig out from.
Multiple leading Democrats tell CNN they feel caught in what one described as a “doom loop,” with every move to keep President Joe Biden in or push him out further destroying their chances against Donald Trump.
don't you see, it's all an Obama coup
he gets david short to cook up bad polls
he tells clooney and the podjons to stage a donor revolt
and then david axelrod can sweep in and pick up the pieces
One of the reasons I push back on "Biden is too enfeebled to make it up in the polls" is that there are plenty of angles on this campaign where it literally does not matter who is on the ticket or what skills they do or do not possess
The numbers are the same as they were back in Jan 2023, when there was plenty of opportunity for challengers to see them and jump in the race
14 million dems went on to vote for Biden/Harris.
They've had a plot going against top Trump admin officials ever since Trump dropped a hellfire on Soleimani.
This has been previously reported including when they were looking for this HOA president-ass looking mfer (excellent spycraft is about blending in)
Breaking News: A potential Iranian plot to kill Donald Trump was recently detected by U.S. intelligence agencies. They said it was unrelated to the assassination attempt at the rally.
"leadership" wasn't technically mentioned anywhere. Just lower-case s-"senior".
I encourage you to get more cynical at the attribution game. This could technically describe a House Dem who has been warming the backbenches for a long time.
