McNally posted:Really the best time for Biden to announce that he's dropping out would have been during a televised speech during Trump's speech at the RNC. That was floated online in places, but turns out Donnie's speech sucked, so best of both worlds! I mean a lot of newspaper/media prewrites chomped hard on the twenty minutes of prereleased "new tone" until he was back to the 70 minutes of "late, great Hannibal Lecter". The funniest example: https://x.com/meyer_lucas/status/1814150242566107540

A point I heard was that people who are "undecided" might have tuned in for the new direction part of the speech and left before the reversion to mean.

Is anyone else bothered by how the news media keeps stating things as if Biden leaving the ticket is inevitable? If he doesn't–wouldn't these headlines be for nothing? New York Times is especially bad right now, and it's not even a slow news week. What really gets me is the anticipatory tone, for something not guaranteed at all

New York Times is especially bad right now, and it's not even a slow news week. It's both very lovely (putting them above Donnie's crazy nonsense), but also very reasonable considering just how much leakproof Bidenworld is leaking and Congressional sources are doing the same. Also notable is that today was a possible counterleak batch of "Biden digging in, very angry at Obama/Pelosi/etc". A self-licking ice cream cone at work for clicks.

lol c’mon, at least suggestions of Hillary involve someone who is a democrat. Lifelong not-terminally online/galaxy brained democrats would be confused & upset about why their party has decided to put a republican on the ballot. West Wing seems to have fallen into ER/NYPD Blue levels of irrelevance, haven’t heard of anyone watching it in at least a decade. At least they spent a ton on the Oval Office set so it was reused in the superior cultural projects of Red Alert 2 & X-Men 2.

Normally it's the Democrats yelling to the refs that a dog can't play basketball. Now they seem to be demanding to sub in their pug instead of the greyhound right there.

Step down Biden, we want MARIANNE! If the stakes weren't so high it's funny seeing how bad they are at this. Democrats can't get anything done without internal disagreement. They would truly give up incumbency advantage and actual name recognition? facialimpediment posted:Normally it's the Democrats yelling to the refs that a dog can't play basketball.

Of all, ALL the reasons it could and should have happened, at all possible moments, it's this and now. One single debate, none of which american voters watch and only the politics brained care about. Obviously money talks. But why is the money always in the hands of the stupidest?

The money / donor stuff is absolutely a contributor, but it made the sleepy, braindead joe thing a locked-in impression for the country. Most normie voters thought that was the real Biden from their social media feeds and random conversations, it just became locked in when all the politicians and reporters saw the same thing the normie voters did. Absolutely true that money talks, but eyes watch too. And Kamala gets the endorsement! https://x.com/JoeBiden/status/1815087772216303933

Yeah, it baffles me that some people leaned so hard into the concern being a complete fabrication. But whatever. I'm sure they'll back Harris to the hilt since their pushback was, presumably, founded in having the best candidate to beat Trump.

I thought it was weird to push so hard back against it... because now that it's happened there's no doubt it'll swing to overwhelming support of Harris. Vote blue no matter who is a real cancer to the discourse.

Vote blue no matter who is a real cancer to the discourse. It literally has to be Harris, given campaign funds and the previous primaries. She has enough name recognition and has real ties to the Biden administration. Still I'm getting strong glass cliff vibes with this move
