If the media doesn’t change something about their reporting of Trump, then that saying about capitalism selling the rope it will be hanged with is going to be quite relevant.

While I think this is generally correct, and that negative partisanship will be a driver for Dem turnout in unprecedented ways, I cannot stress enough that having any takeaways about November from these results is just the dumbest poo poo. Even if the results are unexpectedly good for Dems! Between the pandemic, the "Election is postponed! Nevermind, still on!", and the polling closures throughout the state, this is all bizarre enough that there's nothing worth taking away from it for November.

Medullah posted:Yup, this is a crazy one. Fox News of course had "Trump not firing Fauci, a 'Wonderful guy'" I half-remember a quote from some journalist a while ago where he mentioned that editors would reject any attempt to directly transcribe a Trump quote as being "too partisan." The decision to stop airing the conferences feels like it comes from the same place.

The Angry Bum posted:He is completely owning the media there at these events because the news organizations are cutting away and not showing the full derangement of what he's saying. Heavily sanitized clips will air later and that'll be it. And NO ONE will dare call him out on it. And yet the News keeps doing the same mistakes that got him elected in the first place. They have get the point across of "holy poo poo, he just played an OANN style campaign ad during a press conference about a pandemic" without either: - Giving him hours of free airtime to air his grievances - Sanitizing it all away, so you only get the bits where he stays on point and making him look like a not-crazy person.

It's weird how that totally contradicts his rationale for refusing to force governors to shut down their states, that it's a state's rights issue. So weird.

I think the trend in American politics for this decade is that we're going to see progressive policy primarily being pushed at the state level instead of the national level. California and some other states may try creating their own single payer systems, continue with drug legalization, rent control, green energy programs etc. States may form compacts with each other for trade, policy, and other reasons. Especially if Trump wins again and abortion and civil rights are completely rolled back at the federal level, we're going to see basically multiple de-facto "countries" emerge, and the federal government is going to become a figurehead. One could make comparisons to feudal Japan, Rome after the 3rd century, the Spring and Autumn period of China, and various other historical empires in their decline. This is my somewhat serious, most likely wrong, Nostradamus prediction. America Inc. fucked around with this message at 00:08 on Apr 14, 2020 |

If Democrats pull this off in Wisconsin, I'm going to start believing Biden might actually win this. Usually it sucks to be part of a party that can only win by default, but on the other hand hey sometimes that means you get to win by default
