Notice how everyone is somehow talking about Biden Too Old right now, and NOT about how the Supreme Court just legalized Trump being a dictator for life and gutted the administrative state, and how the Heritage Foundation is now issuing terrorist threats? Think that might not be an accident?

The important thing is that by doing nothing but amplifying Republican attacks on Biden, the liberal media can't be accused of displaying bias against Donald Trump. Discussing the only sane candidate's flaws instead of raising alarm about his sociopathic opponent is the mark of quality journalism.

Ok, but it's not like Biden (or Durbin) was going to do anything about that anyway.

I disagree with the "everyone" premise, but... That which is expected -- the Supremes giving Trump what he wanted -- is generally less newsworthy than that which is surprising -- the extent of Biden's deterioration, which had been quite well hidden from the public.

As far as I can tell, people seem to generally have many conversations on all these subjects. Besides, they are interconnected anyway. E.g, the Supreme Court legalizing Trump being dictator for life makes it all the more pressing to stop him; hence questions about Biden’s fitness to do so.

Accident. We knew SCOTUS would bring down their immunity ruling by the beginning of July. And the date of the first debate was the date the Biden team requested. Plus it would have suited the GOP more to have the debate immediately after the ruling to better drown out making POTUS a king.

This is why I argued in a group chat the other day that Biden needs to start running against SCOTUS and not Trump. That makes it not about Trump *or* Biden, but this lawless Court or democracy. It neutralizes Biden's biggest weakness and focuses the choice on a deeply unpopular institution.

My position is that if anyone wants to know what happens when a far-right authoritarian POTUS directs his DOJ to go after his political opponent, including via the opponent's children, one need look no further than what's happening now.

an accident? let's not get conspiratorial here. the Supreme Court is seen, rightly or wrongly, as something too thorny for the populace to resolve--we certainly can't vote them out. the presidential election itself is something we have a *degree* of power over, so that's where the interest goes.

And there are people on the left who are taking the bait, just like 2016. Biden has said it, he's staying in. Stop engaging with anyone who wants to prolong this "debate." Focus exclusively on bringing a blue wave in November.
