a moldy potted meat sandwich could beat Trump right now if the media and the Democratic machine actually focused on how he's a convicted felon, had close ties to known child rapist Epstein, and has a plan in place to fully end democracy

if Christians are right about the cosmology of the afterlife, a _lot_ of them are going to be very surprised about where they end up (also, yes, a very wise idea to announce to the Secret Service that you're distributing counterfeit currency, definitely not seeing any potential complications there)

no, I'm not particularly well-informed about Indian history, I just thought to Google who Azad was for context and realized I'd seen some clips from one of those movies that showed them doing typical Bollywood over-the-top fight scenes

there are some Bollywood movies about these revolutionaries that portray people like Azad and Bhagat Singh as superhuman folk heroes (because Bollywood does nothing halfway), and, the more I think about this anecdote, the more I think it's kinda justified

My hot take is that I didn’t think Biden’s debate performance was that alarming and was more doddering in the way he consistently is compared to when he was VP, and a lot of this freakout is people generally realizing he’s not gonna get less so

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?” (Sadly, it’s just not how humans work most of the time)

Donors maybe, but the media didn't panic. They've been waiting for an opportunity to wound Biden. Stable, competent governance is bad for ratings. They need the horserace until Nov and they want the chaos that Trump brings. They are the enemy.

Tell me I'm wrong: A bunch of the media and donor class panicked, for good reason, after the debate. Made a big coordinated push to make Biden step aside. Didn't work, wounding pride of lots of big egos. Now too miffed to concede so stuck denying that Biden can win to justify continued aid to Trump.

I wish I was joking. This fucker brags about how beating his kids is a form of “love”. He’s a big proponent of bringing back corporal punishment in schools. He talks about growing up abused by an alcoholic father to garner sympathy, while promoting the exact same shit.
