i refuse to believe that americans who watched the debate think that biden’s first 15 minutes are somehow stronger evidence of old age decline than falling asleep, *in public*, DURING YOUR OWN FUCKING CRIMINAL TRIAL, *IN COURT IN FRONT OF THE JUDGE AND JURY*, but, you know, i’m not a columnist.
Trump’s public schedule showed that on most days, he worked (“worked”), like three hours a day. And this isn’t even a “Biden can’t work late at night” issue. It’s a Biden is pulling back on SCHEDULED EVENTS that start after 8pm, which is actually a good idea for most people.
Turns out a single live blog is not as impressive to the electorate as wall to wall coverage where every columnist at the paper has a take, no matter how thorough your correspondent is
Everyone trying so hard to vibe a campaign collapse into being as the polls either make MoE shifts or don't budge at all. An obviously dishonest dedicated media freakout smashing headfirst into reality over and over and over again.
Dude delivered a three-minute monologue about electrocution vs. shark attacks and somehow he's the one who DOESN'T have to prove his mental competence.
Yes, I understand that. What I don't understand is all of the ordinary Democrats and leftists who are signing onto an obvious rat fucking campaign and saying, "Our guy needs to prove he's perfectly competent before we support him against the guy whose brain is visibly leaking from his ears."
I personally believe he shouldn't be the nominee either. I think the dems should have a team of responsible, sensible, competent candidates at the ready (the 'best people').
I never trusted the Dems again after they passed over Sanders, and the graph from election night 2016 looked sus af.
The American public has a gnat's attention span but falls for any lie on repeat. The MSM knows this, is in the bag for Trump & loves setting Dem hair on fire. They also know the GOP DGAF if Trump's diapers are leaking in court & the crushed Adderall is flying from his nose. He has their vote.
ditching the nominee right before the convention has a stellar track record of having worked exactly zero times it has been attempted, so it’s obviously an easy choice
basically no prior election is comparable. primaries did not matter in the same way 1968 and earlier. anyone who is very confident about how things will go is mistaken
Be that as it may, the job of the Democratic Party and liberal commentariat is to highlight these things and argue that they're proof of Trump's deterioration, instead of ignoring them and gaming out their fantasies in which a broadly popular 35-year-old MENSA member takes him on instead.
