The debate and the interview were the Biden campaigns ideas, and they've screwed up both of them. They *counted* on the media to focus on him - until that blew up in their face.

Wall to wall coverage of Trump could maybe - MAYBE - drive his polls down a bit. But if Biden is not perceived by a handful of voters in 4 states and don't vote, then coverage doesn't matter, and so far, Biden's self-inflicted wound isn't closing up

NEWS --> Mark Robinson, the MAGA extremist GOP nominee for governor in North Carolina, appeared to endorse political violence against unnamed foes in a recent speech.
"Some folks need killing!" he shouted. "It's a matter of necessity!"

Everyone will -- understandably -- focus on the Tory collapse. But for Labour's long-term strength, the Scottish National Party's self-immolation is crucial as well. www.reuters.com/world/uk/sco...

I said in 2020 that I would vote for Warren, Harris, Sanders, anyone who’s running against Donald Trump. I wrote in support of voting for Hillary Clinton multiple times. Instead of arguing with the version of people like me in your head, you could just ask.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

For some years, my former colleagues on the right tried to argue that I had brain worms if I would break a friendship or even a close relationship over Trumpism. I replaced "trump" with "david duke" and asked them to reconsider. That usually ended the discussions.
