Are all this "wow Biden was actually the greatest president ever but we didn't notice" news that started floating around a part of his upcoming election campaign?
I was curious because of how unashamedly propagandist this article is. So I clicked on the author link. It seems this is the only article he's ever written for this website (I hesitate to call it a news outlet). Also, it says he's a former republican political consultant now working for the Lincoln Project. That's apparently the name of a moderate republican PAC that is trying to fight Trumpism.
So why would a political news website outright publish propaganda from a PAC without any commentary? I've never heard of the new republic before, but they seem to be an otherwise unremarkable progressive political magazine. I couldn't say whether the new republic is getting paid by the PAC to publish this, or whether they just took it because it generally aligns with their own stated political views. I will say that, although it is mentioned at the bottom that the author currently works for the Lincoln Project, I had to really look for that. it also wasn't clear to me at first this was a PAC. So in my opinion, proper journalistic ethical standards are not being upheld here.
Given the article's origins, it's pretty safe to say none of this is genuine. These are moderate republicans who hate Trump, trying desperately to destroy Trumpism. If they truly believed their own article they'd be democrats. And if you're here wondering if the article is worth reading, I'd say it is practically fully content-free. It's all just hopium.
You know it! I'm just thinking what's the point? I don't like Biden, but I gotta vote for him anyway cause the alternative is way worse. I DO NOT want to go back to seeing 24/7 news feeds about Trump doing something worse each day or playing golf for the nth time.
You know one of the few things I liked about Biden was that I was able to go days or sometimes weeks without hearing anything about him. Campaign seasons suck.
Yes, the Biden presidency has been blissfully "boring". I might have hoped for better, but I'll settle for stagnant compared to 2016-2020.
Boring? We are involved in two major regional wars with constant threat of escalation, global economic chaos, and the highest inflation in a generation. Fallout from a pandemic, the feds have been raising interest rates to the point the whole economy is fundamentally changing.
We are living through historic times. I feel like the world hasn't been normal or "boring" since Dec 2019
All reasons why we need solid leadership. I'd take a 3rd candidate, but if its going to boil down to Trump v Biden, then its an easy Biden pick.
i think there's no scenario where biden wins this upcoming election
the situation with israel/iran is gonna kill him. he enters the war in force, he loses election because he's starting another war in the middle east. he does nothing, and he loses because he appears weak.
he just had a press conference because the special counsel released a report saying he was mishandling classified documents just like trump. the report stated one of the reasons he's not getting prosecuted is "he's a well intentioned old man with a bad memory"
i guarantee that's going to be on attack ads all over come election time
look at the republican primary in nevada. trump got removed from the ballot - so he told his supporters not go out and vote because it didn't matter.
so who won the primary? the options were nikki haley, tim scott, and mike pence. Haley got about 30%... but the winner with 63% was "none of the above"
even when trump isn't on the ballot, even when he tells his supporters not go out and vote... he still dominates.
trump is winning nearly every general election poll vs biden
i feel like the democrats are sleepwalking into a trump victory by rallying behind biden
only chance is some sort of legal action taking trump out of the race (which i find unlikely at this point) OR trump has a stroke or something
There's too much good fodder for attack ads. Remember how he said he wouldn't seek reelection?
Most important election of our lives, fighting for the sake of our democracy, literally everyone from Russia to China to Saudi Arabia is out to get us so we have to stick together, don't you care about climate change, don't you care about immigration reform, don't you care about student debts and health care?!!!
Actually, the last four years have been incredibly normal. What are you even complaining about?
Can't believe it is both the Best of Times AND the Worst of Times. Crazy.
