A key note is that Democrats are hitting the Hitler stuff really, really hard. All of Donnie's people, and Donnie himself, are all denying he said it, with a few exceptions of weasels claiming "this is already baked into Voters' minds". That basically means that according to standard operating procedures, by Saturday there will either be confirmation from others, a statement on tape, or Hitler will suddenly be publicly awesome. And there are a whole lot of reporters calling a whole lot of people to prod that along. Donnie's lost contain on this one and can't do anything about it.

It's still wild to me that the dude's former Chief of Staff called him out as a fascist authoritarian and they apparently think there's something more damaging waiting in the wings. Dubya needs to get off his paint-stained rear end and denounce Trump. It might not do a lot, but anything is better than nothing. Hell, the Kaiser already wrote his speech for him: quote:For a few months I was inclined to believe in [MAGA]. I thought of it as a necessary fever. And I was gratified to see that there were, associated with it for a time, some of the wisest and most outstanding [Americans]. But these, one by one, he has got rid of or even killed... He has left nothing but a bunch of shirted gangsters! This man could bring home victories to our people each year, without bringing them either glory or danger. But of our [America], which was a nation of poets and musicians, of artists and soldiers, he has made a nation of hysterics and hermits, engulfed in a mob and led by a thousand liars or fanatics.

Or the wars in Sudan, Nagorno-Karabakh, or Ethiopia. Or the continuous, decades long Catastrofuck that is Congo. Or how a guy who uses genocidal rhetoric will somehow end a genocide.

Also, newspapers are hedging: https://x.com/davidfolkenflik/status/1849841419193643424?t=8EVNLXtIyNRdKfOAI8ZpsQ&s=19 WaPo joins the LA Times in having their bazillionaire owner manufacture a reason why their editorial section (note: all editorial sections should be fired into the sun) won't make an endorsement in the presidential race. In this case, Bezos brought in a Murdochian bozo so Bezos's cloud computing contracts have a better chance of staying alive if Donnie wins.

Yeah, it's definitely one of those things where billionaires are really, really fuckin cheap and Bezos couldn't accept losing $77m/year. So he brought in that scandal-plagued shitter to be more friendly to conservatives (lol won't work) because supposedly conservatives buy newspapers too [citation needed].

Hah, the news side realized they had a story and didn't need to chase their sources very far: https://x.com/drewharwell/status/1849867735398023486?t=BsZ5ri5_dTq0lxwZ-xDy0g&s=19 WaPo about WaPo posted:An endorsement of Harris had been drafted by Post editorial page staffers but had yet to be published, according to two sources briefed on the sequence of events who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. The decision not to publish was made by The Post’s owner — Amazon founder Jeff Bezos — according to the same sources.

Bezos bought the Washington Post, Donnie hates news sources that publish a semblance of truth, so Donnie's never shut up about the Amazon Washington Post being corrupt or whatever. Amazon/Bezos have complained that it led to Amazon losing some DoD cloud computing contracts and it was enough to tangle the lawsuit in the courts forever until the Pentagon basically gave up.

I think Trump got his feeling hurt by Wapo reporting and vented his frustration by allegedly telling the DoD to make sure AWS didn't win the huge cloud computing contract. The contract was awarded to Microsoft and AWS sued claiming they only lost because of Trump's retaliation Efb

So does that mean Republicans don't trust Fox to report the truth and just don't care or that they don't consider it to be "the media"? Or I guess fox could be the one they do trust, but there are many others they don't and their general distrust is just that Fox is outnumbered or whatever.

ZombieApostate posted:So does that mean Republicans don't trust Fox to report the truth and just don't care or that they don't consider it to be "the media"? The majority of them probably think that Fox News isn't "mass media" (even though they're the biggest), or they've defected from Fox News completely to Newsmax/OAN/RSBN if they think Fox News is too "mass media.". Probably a question phrasing thing. Edit: Forgot too, Gallup has been very weird about their methodologies lately. These numbers are far enough apart that they're credible, but Gallup doesn't even poll/report the presidential race because they don't believe they can anymore. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Oct 25, 2024 |
