I don’t understand news values of long stories/interviews w/ random Trump supporters who still think election was stolen; nytimes.com/2021/01/26/us/…
until it’s couched in larger theme of brainwashing, these are a waste
seemingly normal white guy became Trump fanatic

.....and?
I mean, is NYT gonna interview every one of them?

these tears are real.

advice for Joe: ignore and sprint ahead on Covid relief. you have no honest partners on GOP side.; politico.com/news/2021/01/2…
Dem House passed $2T relief in May.

GOP Senate wouldn't allow a vote.

GOP couldn't care less abt this issue. and 0 will vote for Covid relief *no matter what the bill looks like*
spoiler: ***entire*** GOP agenda is making sure Biden gets no victories.

there are ZERO Republican votes to be won on Covid relief.

Dems shouldn't waste another day on them

painfully dumb editorial from WashPost, which plays along w/ beloved Beltway charade re: "bipartisan" Covid relief.

GOP has opposed Covid relief for 10 moths.

WP: Why can't Dems pass bipartisan bill??

good grief; washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-b…
would a bipartisan Covid relief bill be "the best way"?

Yes.

has GOP everyday for the last 300 days advertised its opposition to Covid relief?

Yes.

why does Beltway press play this dopey game?
Dems could adopt **every** suggestion WP makes for Covid relief bill

know how many GOP yes votes Dems would get?

ZERO

mt latest—here we go again; pressrun.media/p/biden-the-pr…
“Three days into Biden's presidency and the press was demanding to know when he'd start placating the GOP by pushing "Republican priorities."”
“To date, there's been virtual no news coverage on which "Democratic priorities" the GOP is willing to adopt in the name of unity.”

I chuckling bc DC press actually thought McConnell was going to be in favor of impeachment
oh well: pressrun.media/p/mcconnell-pl…
“is all part of a four-year Beltway media obsession with announcing the Republican Party is finally cutting ties with Trump— usually following an especially erratic and dangerous bout of behavior from him — and that the moment of "reckoning" has arrived. But it never does.”

my latest—this is why Dems can’t have nice things; pressrun.media/p/after-toutin…
“After foolishly labeling the faux billionaire a "populist" for years, the Times focuses on Biden optics, eagerly combing over Inauguration Day photos in hopes of finding expensive items that can be used to raise doubts about Biden's humility.”
“It's a longtime game the Beltway press has played with Democrats, assuming that wealthy Democrats can't also be champions of the middle class”
