Trump has massive media surrogate reach courtesy of Fox News talk radio, you tube, X, Rogan, the WSJ opinion page, etc, spinning for him relentlessly. They’ve successfully made right-leaning swing voters believe crime is up when it’s down, that the rate of inflation is up when it’s falling, that we aren’t producing record domestic oil and gas when we are, that trans people and DEI are things to hand-wring over, while purposefully encouraging would-be VP assassins in real time, threatening swing state officials to do his personal electoral bidding and sponsoring fake electors in defiance of the people’s will is fine. To literally do any extra judicial action to stop the peaceful transfer of power in the U.S. To openly threaten the western alliance on the world stage. That’s all good compared to Biden. It’s an amazing feat of propaganda that surely delights our adversaries. And this was basically the state of affairs before a critical mass of swing voters told us Biden is clearly too diminished, even if some of the manufactured policy propaganda against him didn’t land. The GOP has rolled over for him, and now the DNC seems to be saying they’d rather have Trump to fund raise off of with their alarmist texts instead of make a real effort to give the Dem ticket a fighting chance. Obviously we needed a moderate non-DC figure like Josh Shapiro to dispatch with Trump but it’s likely too late now. The reframing of Biden is complete, and his blind hubris to not do what he could to help prevent Trump 2.0 will likely seal our fate.
