Warned you that as audiences started to figure out Trump is going to prison, the media would escalate its bullshit. Sure enough, not only are they still pretending Trump is running in 2024, now they're pretending Biden is so unpopular he'd need a Republican VP to have a chance.
This has reached the point of laugh out loud nonsense. First, Biden is WAY more popular than Trump and would be the overwhelming 2024 favorite. Second, Biden would be forfeiting the election by ditching Kamala and picking a republican VP. The media knows this but hypes it anyway.
The media wants to chase ratings in 2022 and 2023 by pretending Trump will be a factor in 2024. It can't do that if the public figures out he's a goner. So the media is getting even louder about Trump 2024, to distract the public from the increasing clarity that Trump is toast.
This now includes pretending that Trump is such a lock for 2024, the Democrats will have to resort to something as insane as a split ticket in order to have any small chance against Trump. The media is just pushing pure fiction at this point.
The Washington Post even wrote this week that if Trump goes get sent to prison, it'll make him even more potent in 2024. No, they really said this. That's the level of bullshit they're willing to dish out, in order to milk Trump's imaginary 2024 campaign for ratings right now.
The real harm is that in order to keep hyping the fading Trump 2024 narrative, the media has to increasingly paint Biden as unpopular, damaged goods, washed up. We're going to see more and more fictional scandals about him from the media going forward.
And then at some point this year, Trump will be indicted in New York and Georgia. And the media will have to decide whether to let go of the Trump 2024 ratings hype, or to ramp up the bullshit even more by saying being in prison will just "embolden" him to magically win in 2024.
Now that Trump is close to being indicted, we've already got some media pundits pushing the narrative that they'll never be able to seat a jury, or whatever. But this will come from the same bullshit artists who just got done wrongly insisting Trump would never be indicted.
You have to understand who and what you're really up against:
- Most days, the media is your opponent.
- The defeatists on your own side are always your worst enemy.
These two groups negligently / unwittingly give the GOP 90% of its leverage for getting away with corruption.
