Uh-oh, the NYT editorial board is trying to at least appear fair and balanced! Today's opinion calls FDFQ "unfit to lead."
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/07/11/opinion/editorials/donald-trump-2024-unfit.html
Yep, they should have led with this weeks (months) ago. Maybe they'll have the balls to have their pundits pick up the theme and continue this story line for the next four months. But other media need to also pick up the drumbeat warning voters to not be fooled.
My dream ticket: George Clooney and Kamala Harris.
Why do boomers and Gen X like Clooney that much? What was his last movie?
George Clooney is a decent actor, and a very handsome man. Voted “sexiest man in America” twice. Perhaps that is why dave barnes wants George at the top of the ticket.
To answer North’s question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Clooney_filmography
Well his publicists and agents called him sexy and good actor but opinions.
I would think it's all related to his wife and wanting revenge for Biden shooting down her ICC warrants idea for Israel and Palestine.
So no movies anyone watched.
Some comic relief for y'all: The Rep. Boebert tried to call EPA regulations out as "unconstitutional" following the Supreme Court ruling. It did not go well for her.
She got another owie today. What was that about Johnson, carrots?
By contrast, Dave Williams is a piker: Republican / Conservative politician in Illinois showed what COULD be done.
So… should Biden withdraw? I think he's clearly no longer up to the job of President either mentally or physically (age is a cruel mistress) but I'll take Biden in a coma over Trump.
The question is – who has a better shot against Trump? Biden or anyone else? And while "anyone" polls real good, once it's "someone", then those polling numbers drop.
The debate has ZERO effect on the electorate

Bed-wetters on the other hand…
I don’t think we saw evidence that Biden can’t compete or do the job.
I did hear Republican shill and sports guy Dave Portnoy said “Biden is a vegetable and has been from day one”. Okay he’s a vegetable which leads one to the question how did Biden get all those Republicans to follow along? He got infrastructure full of money and green new deal horrors that raped Republican men, threw their women out of sports, and trans their kids to do it.
If Biden is a vegetable then what does that make Republicans for getting outflanked? Is that using too much of the rhetoric then why did Biden get all of his CRs? Shouldn’t McCarthy and Johnson been able to out think a carrot?
Not yet.
The Republican shilling here is a take on the classic stance of hate groups that is so dumb but also amazingly so effective.
"Those [people] are dumb, lazy and ineffective. Also those [people] are part of a vast, secretive conspiracy to ruin our lives and it will work unless we stop the [people] by giving us power and control over your lives!"
Replace [people] with any group to summarize talking points of any hate group. In this case, it's "Biden people" and "Democrats" but historically it's been "Jews" and "gays".
It's the same bad faith argument, just retread with different targets.
Fair rhetorical questions, but did you ask yourself those questions before writing he should withdraw and Kamala had a better chance? (the internet is forever)
Anyone who makes a decision and then refuses to reconsider it when hearing additional data is an idiot. (Not that reconsidering means one is not an idiot, it's a nevessary but not suffucient requirement.)
I do think it's best if Biden withdraws. But I defer to the elected Democrats who have a much better political judgment to figure out what our best avenue is.
'while "anyone" polls real good,'
well, not good
"The question is – who has a better shot against Trump?"
George Clooney.
Reading this article (https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/07/11/biden-age-conservatives-conspiracy-00167438), I had 2 things strike me about Trump's GOP:
They think the only way to not conspire with someone is to hate them.
Trump hates "mainstream media" (whatever that is anymore), so he can't be consipiring with them. But Biden doesn't hate them which OBVIOUSLY :rolleyes: means Biden is conspiring with them.
Is there a subject where this conspiracy/hate belief is not true for the GOP? I can't think of one.
Their most virulent bad-faith attacks are clearly projection of their wishes.
In this article, Stephen Miller, who is expected to assume a senior position in a possible second Trump White House:
> “Anybody who’s anybody in the Democratic Party participated in, knew of and covered up Biden’s cognitive dysfunction while allowing secret unnamed staffers to run the country.”
FFS! Covering up for a President's "…cognitive dysfunction while allowing secret unnamed staffers to run the country." is honestly one of the best summaries I've seen yet of the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025!!
Trump's cognitive dysfunction is on display almost every time he opens his mouth to sy something.
For anyone (like me) that doesn't have the patience to wade through all 900 pages of Project 2025, here is a handy pocket guide to what it means:
Another great resource:
A few hours later, maybe because of time zones or the laid-back Cali style, but the LA Times has weighed in more or less like the NYT. Big Media might be doing some self-reflection about the consequences of its disproportionate scrutiny over the wrong candidate!
https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2024-07-11/la-trump-unfit-for-office-biden-election
And the fact that they come across as total hipocrites that they never called for Trumps resignation over the years but immediately jumping on Biden.
The howler monkeys at the Heritage Foundation are pre-emptively declaring the coming November election illegitimate. I hope their conference rooms have padded walls. I'd hate for them to hurt themselves as they fling poo all over the walls!
If they're right, I suppose Trump should just concede now. Who needs an election if you believe you've already lost?
These are the people that want to define and control our future? I guess we could thank Trump for ripping the bandage off this festering wound and expose it to light!
