right!?
Trump is on the record as saying that the only reason COVID even exists is that people are paying attention to it and testing for it

He's only capable of seeing things through the perpective of his life of brand management. He believes that if people can be made to think something, that's the objective truth.

So... no. He thinks this can only be fixed by ignoring it.

Dude, everyone knew Obama was in favor of gay marriage who actually paid attention to poo poo. He was being savvy to make it a non issue when all the conventional wisdom was saying that it helped bolstered Bush in '04. And then he actually did things to help give me and other people basic human rights.
you are aware that the only good thing Joe Biden did as VP was drag Obama kicking and screaming into being vocally pro-LGBT right

I think Elizabeth Warren thinks she's doing the morally correct thing. She means well, and she is easily more progressive than the average Congressional Democrat (which is more of an indictment of most Congressional Dems than it is a credit to her).

She also has a savior complex and some of the worst political instincts of any national politician. Billionares attached themselves to her campaign and egged her to keep running because they knew she was splitting the progressive vote during the primaries. As soon as she served her purpose and blunted Bernie from starting to accumulate early wins, they summarily cut off their funding and she was forced to suspend her campaign, but not before refusing to endorse anyone while the Democratic establishment rallied around Joe.

She's not a snake, she's a dope.

"clyburn as vp????" is just some meat to throw out to keep people engaged or get traffic imo
I don't think that's implying Clyburn's trying to become VP, I think surrogates are trying to push Clyburn to push Biden towards one of the possibilities?
