    This is why I feel like the tweet that started this thread was a cheap shot. If the person who made this tweet knows anything about journalism, they know deadlines for print are getting earlier and earlier. On top of that, CFTFG's dog and pony show went well past midnight on the East Coast. But yeah, hold the press for him, otherwise it's a conspiracy, amIrite?

    Christ, any one of us who have slapped out pages late know the feeling when, say, the Monday Night Football game you were counting on is still in the third quarter 20 minutes before deadline, or a local team's game is in like the 15th inning (pre-Manfred)?

    What the fuck do you do? An in-depth look at the lack of luge facilities in Bostwana that fits the hole? Awesome!

    The COVID actually is good because it provides a credible reason for Biden to drop out NOW and still make measured appearances along the campaign trail.

    The MAGGATS and the Faux Fascist Screech Machine wouldn't buy it? Who fuckin' cares?

    And also it provides a perfect chance to reintroduce Fatfuck's fuckup of the whole pandemic which killed over a million, including many thousands intentionally, into the discussion.

    I remember when Nate Silver was the darling of nerds everywhere.

    Had the Faux Fascist Media Machine existed on Nov. 22, 1963*, would complain that John F. Kennedy had just staged a fake incident so he could chase chicks at football games the next weekend.

    * its distant ancestors did, but nothing like we have today. Except its Soviet forerunner TASS.

    It was also back when polls could be trusted. We’ve seen that the numbers are notoriously unreliable. There are several reasons for it, but they are. And instead of adapting, Silver is in full denial and is over compensating in favor of Trump.

    So do I.
    Then he got into politics and felt the need to be a contrarian. And then he felt the pressure to downplay Trumpism — to the point where he predicted his fellow Trumpist Herschel Walker had a 60% chance to win the Senate seat.
