@Finerthanfroghair Yes, I think that dynamic plays into continuing fervent support of Trump more than some folks realize.

@Runyan50 I share your frustration with what nearly half of us seem willing to permit and choose. I also think we have to commit ourselves to keep fighting for something better.

@Greengordon I myself have not ever had huge admiration for NYT. Unfortunately, many people still think of it as the best arbiter of American media opinion. It continues to have outsized influence. When European media outlets quote an American newspaper, it's almost always NYT.

@Runyan50 Some of us are just that shallow, unfortunately β shallow enough to see Vance as a "winner." And the big problem that we face is that a lot of those who think that way are media gurus.

@CanadianCrone Good hashtag. See Robert Reich just today on how Peter Thiel owns Vance and what Thiel and his cronies want from Vance:
JD Vance is the handpicked leader of the antidemocracy movement in America | Robert Reich
Rightwing tech lords are betting that Vance will be the Republican presidential pick in 2028. Theyβre probably right

@shsbxheb Yes, that was back in the days when they wanted us to imagine they owned God and religion and morality and "values," and when they pretended that character counts in a president. How the mighty have now fallen, or how the leopards have now magically changed their spots.

@wdlindsy A debate is not a debate if truth is not the unbreakable standard, unless the goal is see who can win the tall tale contest.
