Hindenburg appoints hitler, biden gives up before the voting starts. What a farce lmao
my read is the establishment wants a “Goldilocks” level of excitement and interest in politics at a given time. not too hot, not too cool.
nobody wanting to vote for anybody was a bit too cool. not enough donations, antipathy to commercials. disinterest isn’t distracting enough. biden decaying on live TV gave things a shot in the arm as conspiracy narratives and contested convention with possibilities swirling, but the excitement was still contained.
somebody taking a shot at a presumed nominee was the porridge bubbling over. can’t be having public violence against that class, gotta pull the pot off the stove and get it back under control.
don’t want to ruin the big dinner or for the house to burn down.
This checks out. Anyone worth their salt will understand the basics of how to keep the peace.
A candidate that makes people sad when he speaks and can barely read a teleprompter vs. A charismatic liar who just raised a fist in the air in defiance in front of the flag after getting shot.
If Biden wants to win he should be implementing his new progressive 100 day plan before the election instead of lying about doing something after.
If the Dems and their media outlets drop the “trump is a threat to democracy” pitch now it’s going to remove the last of my sanity
lol Biden is going to do everything in his power so he doesn’t get arrested and executed at Gitmo when Trump wins in november and declares himself king of the usa.
