I don't take the age thing seriously. THEY PICK A LIE ABOUT EVERY DEM, and the press knows it's some BS but plays along. They know that the other guy is worse in every way, especially his brain. They turned being a war hero into a liability against a fortunate son draft dodger.

YES!!! There was a study very early on in the vax process, showing it took transplant patients up to 3 doses to develop similar levels of antibodies to an immunocompetent patient after their 1st dose. Same rxn when people say "I can't wear a mask because pulmonary problems" opposite day

Trump is trying to get ahead of the reality that he and the heritage foundation are working to destroy America and institute a fascist dictatorship. He is lying and expecting the media to gaslight America for him.

I'm not. Everything they're doing is backing Trump, and the only reason he's showing any objection to it now is because people are reacting negatively. He fucking loves what Project 2025 is doing and he'll absolutely use it. He just doesn't want bad press.

But it's inconceivable to the Christian Nationalists we meet in this podcast that they might be the baddies, even tho they seek to turn the US into a nation in which everyone is a cis het Christian like them. This involves a complete disregard and disrespect for people who are different from them.

It's fairly insane that MOST political journalists exhibit no understanding that being President and running for President are not the same thing, and often a President who is effective at making policy may not titillate their beltway gossip machine, which reflects on THEIR competence, not his.

The entire challenge of the campaign is to make Trump the main character. Swing voters viscerally dislike him. If the focus is on Trump we will win. But the focus is 100% on Joe now. And I fear if it’s Kamala the focus will entirely be on her. It MUST be on Trump and his dangerous plans.

The five letters before that one favor calming down and backing Biden but the one The Post chooses to promote on its home page is the one that's racist and sexist. This is a distinct editorial decision, an offensive decision.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

This is the tradcath weirdo whom the @nytimes.com is publishing to tell you not to vote.

You should not listen to him. Instead, you should shove his ass into a locker and burn the entire campus containing said locker to the ground. (The campus is Hillsdale)

It's pretty interesting what the media decides is front page news and what they don't decide is front page news! Trump being a child sex abuser with close connections to Jeffrey Epstein somehow doesn't merit the same coverage as "unnamed Dem insider has concerns about Biden's age"
