I’m surprised they’re turning on him and raising the issue at all. He didn’t seem substantially worse than his 2020 campaign run and Axios (I think) had already floated the “staffers privately tell us he’s senile” piece earlier in his term but it didn’t seem to stick. His current state can’t be a surprise to power brokers so why hang him out to dry now?

I suspect they’re trying to avoid a primary. The 2020 election showed the average democrat voter is too dumb to pick up on media hints to the insiders’ favorite candidate and the average well-established democrat is too greedy and delusional of their own personal brand recognition to step aside. The pipeline of “chosen ones” that can be legitimized without much pushback at the convention seems empty.

Hand wringing about the federal debt is how they gaslight you into signing off on dismantling regulatory apparatchik and the social safety nets.

Remember when they accidentally confirmed the mall in Kyiv that got shelled by evil Russians was actually a weapons depot when they reported on the TikToker across the street who was arrested by the SBU? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

I think that’s a talking point of the other duopoly party that the vassals don’t pay their fair share to enrich Raytheon.

I hate this question so much. I wish it was illegal to ask. You have to give some vague bullshit or you might tick the interviewer off. They know your answer will be bullshit but will ask anyways. And then every now and again you get some lumpen bootlicker asshole who refuses to abide by the social contract and wants to know exactly why you are seeking a new job and won’t accept the customary bullshit answer.
