the times continues its vigorous campaign to end democracy. literally the same playbook they ran in 2016 with the emails.
we're so fucked. i'm existentially depressed.
theyre taking notes on every single flub. they did not report trump does this EVERY SENTENCE. This isn't just age and this isnt important. this just the times going full kamikaze to get biden out even if it ends up destroying the country and trump using his office to jail them. they dont care
feel extremely confident these same people will turn on a dime and begin running only-barely-veiled racist and misogynist shit about Kamala should she become the nominee, Sulzberger Junior wants Trump above all else
"Lapse"... What about Trump's mental lapses. Jesus Christ. That supercut online of Trump forgetting everyone's names.. I guess that's okey doke with the @nytimes.com
"Voters have expressed concern about his age as well, but not to the same degree as Mr. Biden's."
I wonder why that could be! Could what news outlets talk about have anything to do with it? I guess there's no way to know!🙃
Even left leaning does it. My fav podcast and the Daily Show this year did the same thing 'Biden's old' for 15 mins then mentions in one sentence 'I guess Trump is too'. Thanks for contributing to convince people not to vote for him with your large platforms, then wondering why he's unpopular.
The one difference (imho) is that I feel like a lot of people this go-around *know* this playbook and are of the mind that Biden could die two days after inauguration day and it wouldn't change the fact that they'll vote for the soon-to-be corpse and his competent staff vs. Trump and his sycophants.
I wonder if people will start thinking the economy is better now that the media has changed their relentless string of articles on how bad the economy is to Biden is old stories.
And when Biden bows out and the infighting goes public, the GOP is going to laugh themselves silly while coasting to victory in November. And then they open the camps and invade Mexico.
For real, I actually do agree with them that getting Biden to step aside for a younger candidate is the best thing he can do for his country right now. So I have no real issue with the full court press here to get a younger candidate on the ballot
Jesus! That front page is beyond belief. What the hell do they want to happen here - more page views because a civil war is happening?
We do have this kind of horror in the UK fairly regularly, I think I'm immune to it over here
the awesome thing is, the times is behind a paywall and I hardly ever see anyone forwarding them, I doubt they even begin to reach the audience of genz and millenials who will be the deciding factor in this election. That's a boomer paper to them.
You should see what they were printing during the democratic primaries. They actually wanted everyone to fall in line to give it to this guy they think should drop out. Weird right
