President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

His high school newspaper didn't cover the time the dog ate his homework either.

 

I remain very curious about the fact-checking apparatus at Bari Weiss / Free Press, and the ratio of advocacy to disinterest.

In this case, I'm sure Olivia Reingold found exactly what she set out to find.

 

lol well unlike Taibbi she puts perfectly placed quotes to real names.

Olivia may have found what she was looking for, and it's an effective story.

There is a fight for the souls of 18 to 35's.

Things would be much easier if he stroked out

 

She quotes one Bronx resident. Everyone else falls under the heading of "But the people of the Bronx—and New Jersey, and Queens, and Long Island, and upstate New York, many of whom traveled miles to come see the former president whip the crowd into a frenzy—told me otherwise."

She also uses the NY Post for the attendance figures.

 

I’m a white guy voting Democrat in Alabama. Surely this means the Deep South is turning blue.

We really gonna bite at every hook in the pond?

 

You're being too anal about missionary position journalism.

It's the kind of story that can be chopped up in bite sized pieces, shared far and wide, for 18 to 30's and 40's.

 

As long as he's around and in spittin' distance, yes.

Everyone laughed and said no way in '16. He barely lost in '20. Here he is, again. He's a cockroach.

 

It’s completely absurd and dishonest. And not in the same universe as journalism.

Feeding this bullshit to low-information morons is exactly why it was written.

 

If it's advocacy, fine. Label it as such.

Which 18 to 30s and 40s?

 

The ones that answered the phone.

 

HEY I TALKED TO FOUR PEOPLE IN BIRMINGHAM WHO SAY THEY MIGHT VOTE FOR BIDEN! ALABAMA IS FLIPPING BLUE!

That’s more fucking likely than that garbage. It’s pure fucking propaganda and YF-level idiocy.

 

Ain't about Alabama.
