Once again, it offered a sharp contrast with former President Donald Trump, who, even after his brush with death on Saturday, will appear at a raucous coronation at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Thursday night.

Lick boots harder, you complicit oligarch fucks.

It’s fucking gross. It has never been more clear than the past few weeks just how much these media corporations mold the narrative into what they believe will lead to the most engagement, consequences be damned. After all, what’s the US government gonna do, fine then $10,000? Oh no.

One poor debate performance, and thanks to the feedback loop of the media, half the country is ready to give up the incumbent advantage and replace him at the last minute with someone who has no name recognition. Meanwhile, the other guy is not only incapable of forming a full, coherent statement without a teleprompter, he’s literally told us he plans to be a dictator.

Kyle Gass gets black listed for a joke about the attempt. Meanwhile, we have companies selling life-sized decals of Biden hog-tied to put on your F-350.

And now they’re complicit in this whole “Trump is calling for unity” bullshit, and reporting that he has nothing to do with Project 2025 as if there was any truth to that whatsoever.

The Trump campaign is doing everything they can to distance themselves from their own stated policy goals because they know how unpopular those goals are. And the media is reporting it as fact.

I’m so sick of the double standard. These people have been spewing violent, racist, homophobic, transphobic, genocidal rhetoric for over a decade.

But someone on the left makes a harmless joke and the media dog piles despite it being absurd. But gotta get that engagement at any cost.

Oh wow, is this a totally new thing? Is Biden just suddenly old or was he always going to be this age when fucking time moved on. But hey doesn’t seem to stop Trump

This whole thing is so fucking stupid. If the Democrats wanted a legitimate candidate they should have thought of that way before but instead they fucked it up. Now by trying to replace Biden. They’re going to fuck it up even more. But hey he’s old I mean come on better let the fascists win

Did you just thaw out…? It’s absolutely a new thing! Watch Biden from during debates and speeches just a few years ago. Or even the Vice-Presidential debates from 2016. That was only 8 years ago, that’s barely even a thing for an 81 year-old!

doesn’t seem to stop Trump

Trump lied like crazy before, during, and after the debate. But at least he was present and himself, he didn’t freeze, he didn’t have a vacant stare, and didn’t literally snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by getting confused and mentioning his opponent’s strongest issue on an unrelated question to him! Age affects everyone differently. And I have to mention, this wasn’t just a one-off: Biden also had cognitive performance issues during press conferences, speeches, and UN addresses post-debate. This isn’t some GOP plot, we all are witnessing it with our own eyes!

If the Democrats wanted a legitimate candidate they should have thought of that way before

I really, really hate this argument. Biden’s symptoms hadn’t progressed to this point yet and the DNC manipulated things to make sure he had no “real” rival for the 2024 nomination. This decline happened suddenly and unexpectedly. Anyone caring for an elderly parent/family member understands. Moving on…

he’s old I mean come on better let the fascists win

I get that we have different opinions, but let’s at least be honest. We all want to avoid another Trump presidency, that’s why people are voicing their opinions, and this is literally the only time to do it! Once he’s locked in as the Nominee, we’re stuck with him. Like Democratic leadership, former presidents, major donors, and the public, I think someone else still has a better chance beating Trump and avoiding Project 2025. Now is the only time to explore other options as we contemplate the best way to avoid the end of democracy in the USA…

Totally agree. There’s no reason we can’t find someone a little older even still.
