Trump spends his entire speech sounding senile, giving us soundbites we can use to convince persuadable voters that he has dementia. Yet all we can talk about is "oh no, he said the word bloodbath, there'll be a civil war, we're doomed!" We're only helping Trump with this talk.
The entire reason Trump's handlers have him up there using words like "bloodbath" is to distract everyone from his senility. And it's working. Because we always tepidly and gullibly take the bait whenever Trump suggests he's magically able to overthrow the government.
Do we let Trump's use of the word "bloodbath" go unchallenged? Of course not. But to cower over it? Absurd. And it's not among the five most important things Trump said yesterday.
Trump said that he thinks Biden got into office by defeating Obama in an election, and he thinks Obama's name is "Obaba." This guy is fully senile. Yet we're supposed to cower to him because he toothlessly used violent rhetoric? Like he hasn't said this stuff 1000 times before?
This can't be said enough: Trump used the word bloodbath yesterday to distract everyone from his senility. So why on earth would we give him what he wants? He WANTS us talking about his use of the word bloodbath. When are we going to stop being Trump's publicists?
Who’s talking about Trump’s worsening senility today?

No one.

So Trump has won the day.

Because we gullibly let him.

This man is senile and we’re still gullibly letting him play us for fools.

ENOUGH.

Let’s stop being stupid.

The "intel briefings" that Trump would get as the nominee would be pedestrian info. Nothing like what a President would get. It wouldn't be anything he could sell or use to his advantage. This is all an imaginary doomsday scenario being hyped for ratings. Stop fretting over it.
Besides, Trump got actual presidential intel briefings every day for four years. And then he stole a bunch of top secret classified information and read it in the bathroom.

There's nothing in his "nominee briefings" that would play on the level of the secrets he already knows.
No, Biden shouldn't "deny Trump the briefings." That would take a non-issue and turn it into a scandal that Trump could then use to his political advantage.

Twitter always wants the good guys to make a self defeating overreaction.

You have to understand, this special counsel clown put that line in there about Biden's memory specifically to bait gullible suckers like you into defending Biden's memory, which keeps Biden's memory in the headlines. If you'd all just shut up about it, the story will go away.
Trump says something completely senile every five minutes. There's no possible way that a one-time mention of Biden's memory in a report is going to get any sustained attention, as long as Trump is out there saying senile things every day like this.
The only way the "Biden memory" story will still be alive in the mainstream media by next week is if you're still talking about, which is what tells the media to keep talking about it. Just stop talking about it, and it will go away. That's not always the case, but it is here.

Remember, while Judge Engoron said he was aiming for today for the verdict in the Trump fraud case, he’s not required to announce it today. Nor is he required to give us updates on his expected timeframe. But his verdict will come very soon, and it’ll be devastating for Trump.
While Engoron can assign any dollar amount he wants, it’s not as simple as writing down a number. He and his team have to ensure that every dollar in penalties is specifically supported by the law in rock solid fashion, so that Trump can’t overturn it by appealing.
While the judge already summarily ruled against Trump on the main allegation of fraud, there are also other factual matters that he still has to rule on. That takes time too.

The more obvious it becomes that Trump is finished (senility, prison), the more his handlers try to cover for it by leaking scary things about what he’ll do when he’s magically in charge again. Their goal is to paralyze you with panic and fear. Don’t take the bait.
Trump and his people want the messaging to be that he’s more dangerously powerful than ever. So your messaging about him should, obviously, be the opposite.
Trump wants you out there talking about how powerful he is. So you should be out there talking about how weak he is, how broken he is, how senile he is, how he’s nothing more than a helpless criminal defendant awaiting trial.

Now that the media has sufficiently hyped fake stories about Biden being behind in the polls (the polling averages say he's tied), the media is moving on to hyping fake stories about how Biden will step aside for Gavin Newsom. No surprise. We've seen the media pull this before.

Back in 2015, even as Hillary Clinton was utterly nominating Democratic primary polls by twenty points, the media simply lied and claimed she was behind her primary opponent in the polls. Then the media began making up fake stories about how everyone from John Kerry to Michael Dukakis was supposedly planning to enter the race because Hillary was no longer viable. And the whole thing was just pure fiction, made up by the media to drive ratings.

Now the media is doing it again. First they sell the lie that Biden is behind in the polls when he isn't. Then they sell the followup lie that other candidates are planning to step in because of how non-viable Biden's numbers supposedly are. The media can't find any real storylines about 2024 yet (because it's still 2023, duh) so it's making up fakes stories and then building other fake stories on top of them.

Remember, these lies aren't just coming from Fox News and the outlets you hate. These lies are coming just as thoroughly from the media outlets that claim to be on your "side" politically. That's because the major political news outlets are all only on the side of driving ratings. At this point they're all functioning like the National Enquirer. And it's been trending that way for years.

This won't stop until you push back and put a stop to it. Remember, the polls aren't the problem. The polling averages say Biden is TIED. Anyone can easily look that up and confirm it. The media is simply LYING when it claims Biden is way behind in the polls, so that it can build other lies on top of that lie.

All you have to do to push back is point out that Biden is tied in the polling averages. It takes all the air out of all the other phony claims the media wants to make about him. But don't let the media get away with this, or they'll only get more egregious about it.
In reality Newsom is (obviously) gearing up to run for President in 2028, and that's great, he'll be a strong candidate. In the meantime Newsom is a powerful ally to Biden in 2024.

The media is being unfair to Biden, Newsom, and the public discourse by hyping this fake stuff.
But the media has always been able to get away with fake stories about people supposedly planning to enter the race. Even if you deny it, people still think it's true And then when you never do enter the race, people think still you were planning to and then ultimately didn't.

Ten seconds of critical thinking and you realize that nothing could ever possibly work in the kindergarten level simplistic way that the political media and pundit class presents it to you.

But it's all designed to trigger an emotional response so you DON'T think it through.
Aileen Cannon, one of the dumbest judges alive, has magically figured out how to cripple the entire Department of Justice and the entire Judicial Branch just by not issuing a ruling on something.

COME ON.

You'd need to have an IQ of zero to actually believe something this dumb.
Just like Sidney Powell, one of the dumbest attorneys alive, magically undid fifty years of RICO law just by requesting a speedy trial.

You're laughing out loud at this idea by now. But at the time, most legal pundits insisted this was what was happening with Powell's filing.
