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.

I, too, will vote 🔵 no matter who. However, #Biden has little to no upside unless he uses his new #officialact powers - 😳😤which he clearly states he won't. Yes, change at this late date is risky, but so is "staying the course", 1 term loser GHW Bush's bland, ineffective strategy.

Really? That's obscene even if he is incapacitated and his egotistical staff are refusing to allow him to be replaced with someone who can win, leading donors to not want to set their money on fire? I think it's normal emergency coverage of a crisis.

Just thinking back to the Trump years, when so many journalists were bleating about how mean Trump was to them & how frightened they were each time he whipped his followers up into a violent frenzy directed at them. I dunno how I am supposed to care about this industry ever again.

Democrats did it to themselves by constantly rigging their primaries. Now they’re stuck in a shithole of their own making and they’re doing nothing to get out of it. And Biden has been shit since before he became a doddering idiot.

I think it's as basic as: the media wants Republicans to win. Either because they agree with them or because or craven "its good for ratings" And the weird way people try to get Republicans to like them by going "we bashed Biden. Watch our show! Tee hee."

Democrats who characterize factual statements about a man who can neither walk or talk as being references to his age reveal a transparent intention to lie via conflation as a diversionary tactic. A preference toward unimpaired leadership does not necessarily prove hatred of the elderly.

Well, I think the worse path going into the election is the Democratic Party screaming "Democracy is on the ballot" while out of the other side of its mouth saying six months of presidential primaries were a complete waste of time for 15 million registered Democratic voters.

The "Rich Dems Worried" ones are negatively polarizing me into wanting him to stay in no matter what. Even if you agree with them on Biden, it cannot work that they can issue threats and then have the candidate changed. They must not even think it possible.

I don't consume enough MTM to argue for or against this framing. But beating Trump should be easy and the Dems are making it as hard as possible. Complaining about coverage and responding to reasonable doubts by giving marching orders ain't the way to dig out of this hole.

I'm not worried about Biden because we have Kamala Harris if she is needed. She is competent and could step in. Michael Popok said it well last night that we are voting for a regime and not choosing a spouse. The Democrats are not the ones taking away women's and lgbtq rights, so they have my vote.
