It is always hilarious to me that many white collar folks will briefly perform a task to show that they “get” the difficulties of workers. Friends, it’s usually not the task itself that makes a job hard. It’s the repetitive grind in poor conditions for low wages. Do that and you’ll get it.

Whatever winds up happening but especially if Trump loses, the reporters will suddenly dump their notebooks of anecdotes of Trump shitting himself, stories about panicked discussions between his kids and handlers etc. "everyone knew" it was worse than being reported (why wasn't it reported?)

It’s like the Patriots wanting to be a running team in today’s NFL. It *sounds* like it might gain yardage, but it’s not how you win.

I’m angry already…

It’s the x that truly gets me. What is it even doing there?

Yep! It's become clear over the last two decades that there is nothing — literally nothing — which will make media and elite institutions apply this standard unilaterally. Democrats have to assume good faith; Republicans never have to show it. bsky.app/profile/crys...

Our journalism is choosing to fail in the face of fascism. Period.
