gotta step back a bit and remember: not only was biden not supposed to win, he was absolutely not supposed to win a senate he could pass highly popular free money policy with. this is all absolute hellscape nightmare territory for the right, who never planned for this scenario

don’t think the already highly questionable integrity of these polls holds up much longer than an hour so I’m just gonna observe the results here are pretty wild & a good clue why republicans can’t lay a hit on biden
bananas stuff here, would kill to see this run as a real national poll
I’m now fascinated with this. not because I’m judging anyone who got the answer wrong (it was right at the end of bush’s last term) but because of how obama opposition retconned history by launching “thanks obama” as a response to every bit of bad news right out of the gate
this take just absolutely rules and I’m so glad erick released it into the wild so it’s not just conjecture about how this shit perpetuates
there’s so much incredible shit going on here but the one I’m fascinated with is how erick only sort of understands the formula that’s brought us a week of “dems cancelled dr seuss” and can’t quite figure out how to apply it here but gosh darn it he is gonna swing for the fences
well I for one find it astounding that the bizarre ceremonial self-indulgent vestigial limb of a colonial power that plundered half the globe retains racist attitudes!
what next, the daughters of the confederacy aren’t just very passionate about history? is there nothing I can trust
now to take a big sip of coffee and check in to see what the catholic church has been up to the last few years, the one institution I know won’t fail me
hell of a move to force the GOP to tie themselves up in knots taking the side of the big tech they hate and trying to claim populist working class cred while savaging the amazon workers who helped get an awful lot of americans through the last year
actually a little curious to see whether the tucker carlson faction sniffs out the trap here and sides with biden or at least sits this one out because the alternative is such a lose lose
I don’t understand the leftist complaints about biden when he’s shown himself early to constantly avoid the easy plays and instead make the bold move to take the fight to the GOP where they least want it. ok I understand it but still
to me the wildest part of trump’s speech was the fifteen minute tangent about “cats shouldn’t eat lasagna whose idea was that”
will admit I wanted to hear more about holding big soap accountable for the conspiracy of how hard it is to wash the bottom of your feet but he just moved straight into the lasagna thing
honestly the only newsworthy part of the whole thing was trump saying he set the feds after wayne lapierre after they had a falling out over wayne refusing to take trump’s advice on including a penthouse forum style “I had sex with a gun” letters section of the nra magazine
