The Heritage Foundation “don’t make us kill you, Democrats” statement may mark one of those moments people will read about in 100 years (hopefully!) and think to themselves “why didn’t they freak out when they heard the extremists say that?”

Actually, what needs to happen is the election of a POTUS who will defend US democracy. The DNC corporatists risking said democracy in order to continue to force US taxpayers to fund and cover-for massively-unpopular white-supremacist Zionist colonial genocide ain't that. QED.

Yes, fascists are fascists. If you're having trouble with the concept, MLK's thoughts on "white moderates" like yourself are instructive. Spoiler: he's not a fan.
Didn't say anything about DNC donors, but thanks for confirming your inability to answer the points made with more desperate deflection.

No, sweetheart. That's the thing; it's *your* job to present a winnable candidate if you want votes. "We screwed this up so bad you have to leave us in charge" is some serious white-privilege bullshit.
Think on how you came to need something so basic said out-loud.

Again, which part is confusing you? Of course, if you could answer, you'd have done so already.
Thanks for admitting the "spam" comment was a desperate ad hominem on your part. Now try losing the pathetic deliberate obtuseness.
You just keep proving your MAGA bona fides.

What part are you confused by (adorable you're trying to pretend you aren't simply unable to address the points made) and why do you think giving a relevant answer to two separate questions is "spamming"?
Of course, you don't; it's just the second of your panicked attempts to deflect. Blue MAGA.

Why do you think "slightly better than 45" is all Americans deserve, or will be sufficient to save US democracy?

And he's actually claiming he can only do the job part-time. Like, right now.

Sweetie, the question of the "3 AM phone call" is a big deal around the Presidency for a reason.
"It's fine if the POTUS is only around part-time", even though you complained incessantly (and rightly) about 45's golf. Can't have it both ways.
Can @DemConvention corporatists get any more entitled?

But the narrative is the narrative, and it's hard to overcome. If he dropped out of the race, it would shift to a different story. If he stays in, which he says he's going to, we need to buckle up for four months of non-stop, wall-to-wall *this*, fair or not.

Showing up in an ABC interview tomorrow night isn't going to fix it. He can come off absolutely perfect and it's not going to turn the tide of the current media narrative. It just won't. And again, this might not be fair to him, to his supporters, or to the country.

The only way it *might* stop is if he does something that really demonstrates that he's got some crazy-youthful energy/stamina/whatever that he maybe doesn't actually have. He should probably be on every TV show possible right now, doing every interview he can, just relentlessly in our faces.

But here's the thing, and I'll say it as someone who monitors and analyzes media: the bad media coverage isn't going to let up. It's going to drive his poll numbers down and it's going to be relentless. There's blood in the water, and maybe it's not fair, but that's the reality right now.

History will recall that the New York Times, that bastion of "the liberal media," on July 4, 2024 chose to give prime space on their op-ed page to a theocratic absolutist who argued that people shouldn't vote, even though he himself has voted in the last 2 elections (but nowhere is that mentioned).
