This month, Sinclair Broadcast Group has flooded a vast network of local news websites with misleading articles suggesting that President Biden is mentally unfit for office. The articles are based on specious social media posts by the Republican National Committee (RNC), which are then repackaged to resemble news reports. The thinly disguised political attacks are then syndicated to dozens of local news websites owned by Sinclair, where they are given the imprimatur of mainstream media brands, including NBC, ABC, and CBS.
So how do you feel about Biden now after the debate? Was that not horrible to you? Like I said before I would still vote for him to avoid trump (who just lied and refused to answer questions last night) but holy shit people we can do better.
I feel about the same about Biden as I did before. A guy driven by ego and past glory who saw an opportunity to regain the spotlight and he took it. The less cynical take is Biden actually believes he is the best candidate for the job of “saving democracy.”
If I had my way we wouldn’t be fielding any of these geriatric candidates, not because they lack experience or ability, but because we’ve already been doing their shtick for the last six decades and I’m tired of it.
