There are, I believe, two Joe Biden conversations and they’re overlapping unhelpfully imho. One is people with legit moral concerns. The other is sponsored by the NYT and is But Her Emails 2.0. They’re not the same thing, I don’t believe.

Yeah, daily death tolls that matched 9/11 every single day there for a while and the guy who bumblefucked his way through the bloodbath is now trying to get his job back.

I get why this is the case, but it’s so wild that one million Americans died of COVID because of Trump’s handling of the pandemic, and it’s not even remotely an issue in this election. What a country!
