Far-right chud in NYT: "They went about the ordinary business of life - laboring, raising children, worshipping their creator - untroubled by futile expectations of change." Medieval commoners: "I would rather the king and all kings were dead than that my son should be hurt on his little finger."

So do we think the NYT will officially endorse Donald Trump if Biden doesn't step down? They've endorsed someone every election for as long as I remember. So even staying neutral would be in essence a nod to Trump.

This goes double for debate and interview panic and a seemingly ambivalent shrug from the administration. Biden, the Dems, whomever isn't gonna save us. Like those 12 jurors in NYC, it was always gonna be up to us, the people, to hold Trump accountable because no one else is willing to do so.

the trump immunity ruling is the gift that keeps on giving, one thing that absolutely could've changed the story was his sentencing that was supposed to be next week, but instead it's delayed for 2 months for stupid motions with no chance of success

People are getting confused and thinking this means I think Joe Biden is the ideal candidate or that nobody else would do a better job - not true! I just think that decision was made four years ago and reversing it is a guaranteed path to utter catastrophe

i think Trump’s success in distancing himself from the policies of his own people is at least partially because there’s an authenticity to it: he really doesn’t give a shit about the right wing agenda, he’s just willing to trade it in exchange for power

I do captioning for a living, & a big part of my job is cleaning up false starts & filler words. That has always been the norm at every media outlet. Print media edits Trump so carefully that you would never know what he actually sounds like. Doing this to Biden is a 180 from decades of policy.

You know, we as a society went wrong when we failed to impose a court-mandated 12 more years of elementary school on everyone who joined in on Johnny Depp's fucking pathetically transparent attack on the life and reputation of Amber Heard.
