And the "liberal media" will bothsider donnie and his fascist backers because #BidenSoOld and, well, gEnOcIdE jOe....because donnie is so young and spry and also because he'd be just great for Gaza.
The NYT will probably also write a bunch of galaxy brain stuff about #BidenSoOld and gEnOcIdEjOe to even anything out for the horse race/good people on both sides...
The thing I hate the most is that apparently we all have to just watch this slow-walk into fascism. We all watched him try to steal an election. We all saw him foment an insurrection. Everyone who has any sense knows full well what the kind of people he surrounds himself with are capable of, and what they want to do to so many people in this country if given a chance.
And yet: almost no one really addresses this head-on and speaks in very clear terms about what the stakes are. Instead, I hear total bullshit like #BidenSoOld and #gEnoCiDejOe <- Do the clowns that keep going on about that seriously not realize that a donnie "presidency" might result in all kinds of blood being spilled within our borders?
Oh, I agree it's very important and perhaps the critical difference between the Republican and Democratic Party, however, I just find it baffling that there are voters that recognize Ronald McDonald is flawed enough to end this country but then being kinda cagey about it. Like they are still okay with his party's terrible platform, but they just still want free and fair elections later...
And yes, the Supreme Court is a major reason to come out to vote even for those that believe that the Democratic Party is not filled with unicorns and perfect rainbows, or that #BidenSoOld, or that Ronald McDonald and his merry band of white supremacist fascist maximalist accelerationists won't dismantle this country and plunge us into civil war and/or tyranny and genocide all because they have utterly insane ideas about how this country should work. Even if the worst weren't to happen, Spanky is likely going to be able to name new justices.
From the newspaper that's been championing the #BidenSoOld stuff!
...yes, I realize it's an op-ed piece, but still. How much ink/screen space has NYT spent on #BidenSoOld to prop up the horse-race bullshit? I'm thinking all the very rich owners of these outlets are thinking all their wealth will shield them from the very worst outcomes of another Ronald McDonald presidency. Apparently, they have learned little from the past.
A conservative plan for Donald Trump’s potential transition into the presidency calls for dozens of prisoners to be executed, according to HuffPost. An 887-page plan by Project 2025, led by the ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation, says that if elected, Trump should make a concerted effort to execute the remaining 40...
This is why it's especially irritating when the bothsiderists go on with the #BidenSoOld stuff, or the tankies go on with the #GenocideJoe thing, or the handwringing over whether journalists should side with democracy and so on.
This stuff is right out in the open. Do bothsiderists, tankies or journalists think they'll be safe under this kind of thing?
