Reading tea leaves: He's doing the opposite of what the NY Times is recommending, so it can't be far wrong.
He’s doing exactly what Trump wants, is he a secret MAGA supporter?
Are we at the "taking WaPo articles at face value" stage of grieving already? I know shit is bleak, but fuck, that's offsides.
I’ve been there for a couple of years. Putin prefers Biden too.
If we're playing the game where powerful politicians always say exactly what they mean, I have a link also.
I saw Putin on Epic Rap Battles of History, he definitely has soul. To be fair though, Biden can probably see the spiritual world so we shouldn’t doubt him.
The constant deluge of headlines talking about how apparently voters are "calling" for him to step down and so on, repeatedly repeating it as if its something everyone wants, is weird.
The total lack of headlines about how trump literally just said a bunch of outright lies instead is fucking insane. Every news piece is obsessed with "Biden should totally step down" instead of "dude this other guy trying to be president just sat and outright lied for like an hour straight during the debate, lol wtf"
The propaganda engine is churning and people upvoting and reposting all this shit are fueling it.
Its extremely likely a sizeable chunk of people spreading these posts and absolutely inundating the front page with them left right and center are part of that propaganda engine, so take it with a grain of salt.
I dont give a shit of Trump has been lying every day since day one, we need to keep repeating and pointing it out every single time, as exhausting as it is, because the moment we get bored and tired of it, the lies start to become truths.
What I'd like to see is the front page covered in "Fact Check: Trump lied about x, the truth is y, here's info on it"
This "biden isnt stepping down" thing ISNT NEWS, its inherently reporting that a thing didnt happen which is as far away from actual news as you can get.
"This morning we are glad to report that the moon did not fall out of the sky, more on this at eleven"
Garbage journalism. Stop supporting it. Downvote this shit.
This is the correct take. One guy is old. The other is old and trying to loot America and destroy democracy
You can take a shit in your bathroom three times a day and no one cares...
Take a shit on the 50 yard line during the Super Bowl and everyone is gonna be talking about for a couple weeks.
Like, you realize the debate wasn't even a week ago, right?
We know trump is terrible, and we also know trump will never back out.
A lot of people are surprised with how bad Biden has gotten, becauses he's done a tenth of the press conferences of recent presidents and people haven't seen him for four years
We have also been told for four years that he's not trump, and he wants what best for the country
So some people thought Biden would listen and do what's best for the country
Biden is proving them wrong, and torpedoing his own chances.
If you're not dropping out then stop talking about it and fucking campaign!
