(🧵) Pre-debate, Trump was up nationally in the Poll of Polls by 0.2%. After the debate, in part—not exclusively—because major media engaged in a historic, unprecedented campaign to force the end of Biden’s presidency, Trump’s lead increased to 2.5%. But now it’s narrowing again.

1/ If corporate media, lobbyists, big donors, and pants-wetting Democratic lawmakers force out the 14th-best POTUS in U.S. history—per nonpartisan historians—who is also a man *almost all Democrats just voted for in the primaries*, there will be bedlam in the Democratic Party.

2/ And that’s exactly what Republicans want. Democrats are—per usual—playing into the hands of their political opponents by refusing to be loyal to their leaders, adamant in their principles, and *unafraid* of concern trolling and gaslighting from scheming far-right Republicans.

Looking around today for the full medical history of Donald Trump, completed by an independent nonpartisan physician and including a full neurological workup and an accurate statement of his height, weight, and prescription drug use. Can anyone direct me to it? Thanks in advance!

PS/ I'm not looking for the report Trump wrote himself and then had a doctor sign, which lied about his height, weight, coronary disease, illicit prescription drug use and cognitive abilities. I'm looking for the full professional workup. It exists, right? npr.org/sections/thetw…

PS2/ I am also not speaking of the medical reports that an army of Trump thugs ransacked his doctor's office for so they could never be seen by voters. I fully understand those were long ago destroyed in burn pits due to how horrifying their contents were. nbcnews.com/politics/donal…

(📢) FREE at PROOF: The Future of American Democracy Is Biden, Obama, or Bust

🔗:

This essay takes a dramatic—and radical—view of the crossroads that America has come to. It’s not an easy read, but I hope a fulfilling one.

Please consider retweeting. sethabramson.substack.com/p/the-future-o…

This essay is about more than it seems. It’s about American media, about the Biden presidency, about polling, about the current pretenders to the top of the Democratic ticket, and yes—in significant part—a vision of a Michelle Obama presidency I never thought I would write about.

Sorry... everyone here knows that polling has Michelle Obama up on Donald Trump by ELEVEN POINTS, right? It’s in the essay, of course, but I suppose I should make sure that folks understand that that is the reason this essay and essays like it needed/need to be written right now.

We all need to understand something.

Only one group has the power to decide whether President Biden will end his campaign.

Corporate media.

Voters do not get a say, nor, contrary to popular opinion, does the Biden Family.

American media wants him gone, and it will make it so.

I understand some of you doubt this. You probably haven't been watching CNN.

If you watch CNN, you'll understand that it and the rest of corporate media plans to cover this story until the Democratic Party is so terrified it forces Biden out.

All this is happening in real time.

I have been a journalist since 1994, and I don't believe I've seen corporate media collectively want something as badly as it wants Biden gone. And it knows it has the power to do it, so it's not going to stop until it's done.

I don't think anyone could withstand this onslaught.

BREAKING NEWS: There's a real chance the SCOTUS ruling from yesterday also invalidated the 34 convictions Trump received in NYC, as if there was *any* introduction of evidence of official presidential acts at trial the trial and its result could be voided. nytimes.com/2024/07/02/nyr…

Yesterday I wrote that the Supreme Court ruling was far more evil than people realized.

Today I find myself writing that the ruling from yesterday is far more evil than *I* realized.

It appears we have a king now, and somehow we have this without the man even being a president.

When you treat the most vile man in American political history better than you treat anyone else on Earth, all you are doing is convincing weak-willed people to believe that that vile man must in actual fact be better than anyone else on Earth.

It is the cherry on top for Trump.

UPDATE: The planes were side-by-side for two full days, in an isolated part of the airport.

The Russian plane is the one the Kremlin uses to move people and documents from the United States to the Kremlin.

There has been no explanation for this—and media has not asked about it.

I'd feel better about this "coincidence" if Trump's jet hadn't been where he secreted stolen classified docs he publicly said he has every right to sell or gift as he sees fit, and if the Kremlin weren't interfering in this election on his behalf and wanting payment for doing so.

Some of you may forget—thinking Trump stored his most valuable stolen classified docs at Mar-a-Lago—but in fact that's not true. He sifted out the most valuable stolen docs and put them on his jet as he was leaving for New Jersey. We have no idea what happened to them after that.
