So true on all counts! Please read my comment just above yours (I am new to this platform, but not new to political debates. I truly believe everything that you have said, and also what I have said. Let's see if we can form a coalition!

If by "platform" you mean the Bulwark writ large, you'll have ample opportunity to talk to and debate politics with a lot of pretty reasonable, well-spoken (and behaved) people to your heart's content. But as for this particular newsletter, Sonny mostly does stick to entertainment news and movie reviews, which is a nice respite from all the other noise out there.

I will admit that as a pragmatic and lifelong Independent I share a bit of Sonny's ambivalence about Biden and the present circumstances, which I spoke of in a comment in Morning Shots earlier today (the circumstances as I see them as of now, not my ambivalence) if you'd care to look it up. I'd be fine with Biden as President again and will vote for him... or Harris or whoever is on the Democratic ticket when all the dust from this settles. Being ambivalent for someone like me does not equate with being against Biden, his administration or the Democrats writ large. They are, for all practical purposes, all that's currently standing between a fragile coalition of democracy and freedom loving Americans and the abysmal prospects of another Trump presidency.

I really do get the idea you wrote about in your above comment. I've been around for a very long time, and I only wish that it could be that simple.
