I’m convinced the only way to stop the media’s obsession with Biden’s age is to stop responding. No telling them to F-off, pointing out why they’re wrong, no raging. Treat it as engagement farming & ignore while they punch themselves out. Volunteer for a campaign; talk to voters instead.

And well past time to stop making excuses for them. His supporters are not victims, deluded, or ignorant. The electeds aren’t afraid of trump or the base. He doesn’t need kompromat to keep them in line. They follow him because they agree with him. They know what he’s doing—it’s what they want.

condemned Biden for, well, she didn’t say. For “dividing us.” So, I get calling out the hypocrisy of the right claiming they’re extending grace when it’s only to trump and not the rest of the country. But I don’t get thinking they care or believing they’re extending grace rather than making excuses

And they should stop screaming it’s about genocide when they’re ignoring both that Trump has said Palestine should be a parking lot and knowing he’d let Putin genocide Ukraine. There’s a reason both Putin and Netanyahu want trump to win this election.

I hope too. And I also hope that when they do this, the press doesn’t excoriate Democrats for being “uncivil.” Because one thing we can always count on is the matter what the Democrats do, they will be criticized for it. And no matter what happens it’s always bad for Biden.

Something he discussed in his commencement speech at Moorehouse. I also think he talks about democracy because he actually cares about democracy. Yet understands that it’s not working for everyone because we need more, not less, of it.

And him being a victim of an unfair system not only absolves him of any conviction, it also gives his fans a reason to fight for him. He’s doing nothing to expand his base. My fear is he believes he can win by force with those most committed to saving him from the deep state.

And the reporting was more about the contempt Costello showed than it was about the substance of the trial. Trump may be stupid about many things, but he’s not when it comes to appealing to his base. Showing the rules don’t apply while “proving” the judge is unfair and he’s a victim.

He only needs 1 to side with him. And to the extent a certain percentage of the electorate finds his schtick appealing they may hold out based on the message that rules don’t apply. I disagree that in court is only for Trump. The disrespect to the law is a campaign theme. It’s their main platform.

I feel they know the best outcome is a hung jury. So the “defense” is all a performance to demonstrate “the rules don’t apply to me and they don’t apply to anyone like me.” Hence the group of ex-convicts at his trail yesterday. It’s not for an audience of one. It’s an election appeal for the base.
