So typical of our awful political media class to decide that, because THEY believe Newsom or Buttigieg or whoever would be a better candidate than Biden, the actual Democratic primary process conducted by millions of voters should be unceremoniously dumped aside. So contemptuous of actual politics
I’m sure there are candidates who’d do better than Biden, that’s not the issue, it’s the arrogance of people who spend all their time doing horse-race commentary in exchange for fat paychecks treating real people’s political participation as an afterthought. Process is for the Normals, you see
Actually, the whole political process does. She alone can use all the already-raised Biden campaign cash, for example. There's a vast gap between the commentariat's dreamworld & the actual word in which nitty-gritty politics happens.
It’s probably not good that a whole mob of pundits are wishcasting dramatic West Wing twists that all rely on everyone saying “oh sure just ignore those pesky laws” and it’s getting treated as serious reporting and not shitposting
