Funny how it was a few days ago, Breitbart claims that
for the past four months, viewerships and ratings have dropped consistently in the 18-45 age group. Now, I’m not even sure who will still watch this even if Joe Biden was a guest.
I don’t actually remember it being as desperate when Obama did this in the second term. If anything, he’d loved it when the cameras were on him since he was never fully challenged by them. With Biden, he’s trying to make it look to the press that he IS being challenged.
That’s the insane part.
Should note that late nigh talk shows are glorified cult of personality vehicles at this point.
No one watches them because they give a shit about what is actually on the show, it's all about who is hosting them and a rather pathetic celebrity loyalty thing combined with a level of fanboy sunk fallacy that is based on the premise that "Colbert/Fallon/Meyers/Kimmel used to be funny and in theory could still be funny in the future and I refuse to turn on them as a result of that hope".
Sole exception is The Daily Show: No one gives a shit about Trevor Noah, just the brand and even then, The Daily Show is a zombie franchise by this point and Comedy Central won't kill it because it and South Park are the ONLY fucking things they have left at this point and South Park hasn't even had a full and proper season in TWO fucking years and might as well be canceled, since TPTB decided to yank it off of cable and effectively make South Park streaming only until further notice, to prop up their failing Paramount Plus streaming website.
As for Fallon; it should note that he tends to be the least political of the network talk show hosts (which says something) and even then, he's been browbeaten and blood libeled ENDLESSLY because he is the only fucking host who has had the balls to say that we shouldn't be actively calling for the death of half the nation because they voted for Orange Man. Which caused him to bend the knee to not get lynched/canceled.
A deeper dive into the data behind the "media treating Biden worse than Trump" story, showing how broken or rigged this whole "sentiment analysis" bs is. The same articles are being rated differently, both positive and negative.
There is a cynical part of me that thinks the sudden outflux of "How dare the media treat Biden worse than Trump!" outrage articles are a scam, the same way that the media justified continuing giving Trump press (after being blamed for his election by liberal elites who felt that unpersoning Trump would have kept him from getting the nomination from a Republican Hillary could have beaten easily) by going from simply covering Trump to covering Trump negatively so as to appease the liberal elites.
The media can not fucking go for Biden's throat and document what a lying corrupt piece of shit he is, without insulting the liberal elite, DNC, etc. BUT they can circumnavigate the ban on being critical of Biden by not actually writing the articles attacking him and instead write articles attacking themselves for said non-existent articles so they can PRETEND to be critical of Biden and list how he's fucking up in passing, while at the same time appeasing the liberal elite/DNC/etc by attacking people for CRITICIZING the President. Even if the media is too chickenshit to actually criticize him and has to do elaborate dances such as I describe to do so.
And they need 60 or the filibuster nuked to do it.
Again, if the 2020 election was legitimate, why are they passing legislation to make the events that occured in the 2020 election legal?
My biggest fear is that the Democrats will get panicky as fuck in 2022 and A. kill the filibuster to make the 2021 stealing of the election legal and then pass as much crazy ass shit as they can to have SOMETHING to run on in November or B. Once they lose HARD in November 2022, Schumer will kill the filibuster the very next morning and start ramroding so much shit through in their lame duck to spite the Republicans so that they will have to spend all of 2023-2024 undoing the Democrats shit, while also doing shit to make it next to IMPOSSIBLE to undo the Filibuster's removal and the other shit that the Democrats ramrod through during that lame duck session.
I think Kamala would make a better president than biden. I know it's not a high bar to raise, but I think she would be the sensible adult that was meant to replace Trump. Yeah she's shit with people and lacks charisma, but I could see her putting her head down internally, visiting a few allies, a few laughs and smiles and done. A middle-of-the-road president with nothing to shout about, good or bad.
But, she's being villified, or at least her mistakes are being highlighted more, because if/when she becomes president, she will outshine biden and ruin his legacy. She will be so much better than him (like anybody would) that biden would be forgotten before he went cold. She has been set up before day 1
Think about it, she got spanked in the debates by Tulsi, who would make anyone look a twatt. That has been publicised everywhere. Yet who did Mr President debate with? He got just as spanked, and when it came to the debate with Trump, they threw Biden soft ball questions, ignored foreign policy (lol) and ran damage control for the hunter laptop.
biden is getting protected, kamala is getting thrown under the bus.
Thanks for attending my Spedtalk
The issue with Kamala is that she's the type of "My way or the high way" narcissist, let alone the type that thinks Obama was too "nice" during his Presidency and should have ruled like a tyrant.
Adding to this is that women politicians tend to be more hardcore tyrannical leadership-wise because of the notion that a woman has to be twice as harsh as a man to get respect as a leader. See Thatcher and Merkel, for example.
If Kamala was President, the filibuster would be DOA, the federal and Supreme Court packed with liberal judges and conservative judges illegally impeached on false charges, white people rendered second class citizens if not stripped of all of their rights, and all of the resources of the government weaponized to destroy the GOP as a viable party through any means necessary up to and including having all of the Congressmen that the Democrats want arrested over 1-6, being arrested and thrown into Gitmo and tortured for the rest of their lives.
