I have never rooted for two people on TV to kiss until now

This is a psychotic idea, literally running away from facing the reality of how little enthusiasm the base has for your candidate

If Trump is an existential threat to democracy and minority groups, maybe betting on stopping him through procedure amidst the courts he himself rigged is a stupid and short sighted plan.

The smart thing Democrats won't do now is only ever mention that the shooter was a Republican in unison on every media appearance and have their framing be that Trump's rhetoric is so dangerous it's even hurting him. Dems are too scared of doing things like this that actually work and would force the GOP to exhaust their resources trying to counter message on an issue unrelated to actual governing.

They cut a bunch of her stuff out of the doc, they just wanted to use her as a trans millennial face

And got basically nothing in return until 2008! For 30+ years was living in a one story house with a 100k net worth passing industrialist gift bills out of faith in the system! Just an epic loser and rube.

I mean the only kind of protest Americans can picture is more like a municipal government-sanctioned parade for winky and pedantic wordplay on poster boards.

Yeah they need that feeling of intellectual elevation at all costs, it's why they hate simplifying their pitch to the American public in any way even if it would win them popular support, and love to cite technicalities to shut down people's hopes for Dem leaders to do anything.

CW:CSA In this case she was making a video for her husband and the cops found it on his phone when they busted him for pedophilia.

Call me authoritarian for this, but this is what happens when we respect everyone's opinions instead of shaming and belittling those who are proudly stupid, dogmatic, and cruel. The Reddit atheists were on to something.

Biden's public persona of being a doddering old fool undercuts what he also is: an easily angered and self-destructively stubborn man. He has always devolved into a threat-maker and insult-thrower by the slightest criticism, whether from a journalist or a member of the public.

Whether it's "Listen, fat," or when he threatened to throw a guy's phone or when he responded to a black news anchor asking him about cognitive tests with something like "Why don't we make you take a cocaine test!" Biden is exceptionally ornery, and incapable of being reasoned with when in that state.

That is why there was that expose article about how Biden's inner circle is neolib/neocon lackeys like Joe Scarborough and Larry Summers, while savvy staffers more cognizant of his actual perception by the public are reluctant to clue him into any upsetting realities, lest Biden chews them out and sidelines them.

I know that ex-Trump staffers said that Presinald Trunt would often outright shout that he was going to have them executed or jailed, but I think the impotent cartoonishness of such threats is less menacing than when Biden gets in your face and grits his teeth and growls out in hushed tones a genuine and feasible consequence.

I may sound a bit chauvinistic here, but the Democrats seem like they have completely stopped factoring in how weak this ordeal has made Biden look in the traditional sense. Although in an ideal world we would not ascribe so much value to perceptions of dominance and "alpha" status, in the eyes of non sycophant general voters this ordeal of Biden moving heaven and earth for Israel only to have Bibi still attack him for not doing enough absolutely makes Biden look bitchmade, and therefore unfit to lead.
