What I don’t understand are the calls for Biden to step down from the NYT but no calls are made for Trump to step down.
The media is so soft on Trump, lulled by over-exposure, desensitized to his lunacy so he gets a pass too often.
If you see the corruption of our institutions, voting for gop will accelerate that. For a hope of a reversal the only option are democrats. Imperfect yes. But there’s no choice.
I hereby call on Trump to fucking kill himself in a most painful manner.
The coverage is so asymmetric. Little is said about Trump on the headlines, so consent is manufactured that Biden bad and neutral on Trump.
I think it’s more that Trump behaved exactly as we’re used to seeing him. He lied, he was combative, etc but nothing new there. Biden’s performance was truly alarming, as in it wasn’t clear if he’d even be able to finish the debate. I agree that Trump should be raked over the coals daily by the media because he’s talking like early 1930’s Hitler. But the level of concern over Biden’s performance is warranted, and I appreciate journalists not trying to downplay this.
We needed Biden to be much better than he was. Trump is always shit.
