"Executive Time" fell out of the coverage of Donald Trump in the most incredible way. Nobody writing about his quest to become president again ever mentions the fact that he hated the job when he had it and he couldn't and wouldn't really do it!

The most tragic aspect of the debate around Biden's age is that that his precipitous decline is chiefly due to how much he actually cares about the country and being President. Trump didn't age nearly as much because he spent all his time on his phone or watching TV. He's not tough. He's lazy.

Yes, but that was before he could lock people up on a whim and steal with impunity. Now thanks to the Roberts court he'd get to do the stuff he likes!

Trump voters don't care about the job getting done. I'm convinced they truly don't think the Presidency matters. What they want is someone who hates the same people they do and who says he'll hurt those people for them.

This is because the expectation the press has of Democrats is āa party that will actively govern the countryā and the expectation it has of Republicans (esp Trump) is āirresponsible at best, actively destructive at worstā

he literally just wants the immunity and the power. he couldn't care any less about the actual running of the country, which is why he's so dangerous. his fascist lackeys will be able to do anything they want, in his name. and they just have to make him think it's a good idea to get away with it.

No more comparing Trump and Biden, please. Itās not helpful. I donāt give a shit if you 100% believe Biden has best chance at beating Trump either. Biden is obviously unfit to serve. Clear as fucking day. The right, moral thing is for him to go. Just start there.

Despite him already having been President theyāre completely committed to treating him as an unknown quantity. With the inherent implication that an unknown quantity could be an improvement over the not great status quo

I feel like we've forgotten that he never intended to win the first time, it was all a Producers type scheme in order to launch Trump TV with Bannon and Ailes.

That's the thing about the sleepy Joe nickname. As usual it had its roots in trump's own failures. GOP: every accusation is an admission. -see also 'lawfare', corruption, mishandling documents, voter fraud, child abuse, etc etc
