why are there no panicked discussions today about removing jake and dana from the ballot, or at least the airwaves, before it's too late?!?!?

"Tapper tells him that heโs asking a follow-up question, and heโll get another eighty seconds to do whatever he wants with it, like shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose any unchallenged, fawning media coverage. Trump nods." THIS. ACTUALLY. HAPPENED.

i don't know. "you're blocking my view" is always a silly argument, especially in a place like nyc. but "stop building soulless ugly buildings next to beautiful ones" is a complaint i can get behind!

it's also worth noting, if people are going to continue to politicize the response, that a trump-appointed cdc director greenlit the 6-ft distancing recommendation, while biden's cdc director worked to relax it. weird how this never seems to get mentioned!
