the message from every corner of the US media ecosystem right now is "Joe Biden can't do the job of President"
it doesn't have to be right, or fair, to sink into the minds of the people who will be voting in November
propaganda works
to be extremely clear: I think the focus on this over "the Supreme Court declares Trump is a king above the law" and the dangers of Project 2025 is dangerous, irresponsible and unacceptable
but it is a significant danger to Biden's chances of winning in November
not trying to pick on this reply in particular (sorry) but I see this sentiment a lot and I vehemently disagree with it
nobody deserves what's coming in a second Trump term
Honestly I'm not really. But I mean, that's never been the point. Which is part of our problem. He can lose by a LOT without losing. We have to win by much more than winning to stop it.
I think we need to be cautious because there was a lot of talk right after the debate about how the polls hadn't moved because the average person didn't notice or care about this. But now we're seeing this being pushed in all the major media and that WILL move people.
Sorry if it wasn't clear that that was my point.
Just because someone wins an election in this country doesn't mean everyone deserves what comes next or even chose it. We don't actually elect the person most of us chose.
I'm very worried because my dad has been a hard-core "don't ever say anything bad about Biden" style Democrat, and he was so dispirited by the debate he's wanting him to step down, and my mom has started talking about RFK 😵💫
Me too but at the same time I don't see anyone voting for Trump over this and anyone who was going to stay home probably made that choice awhile ago.
Also it might be better earlier than later in the campaign?
