- hughesjj 2y agoYou know, nothing gives me competence in my incompetence than seeing just how fucking successful Trump and Elon have been despite their lack of competence
- cogman10 2y agoIt really isn't just fox. You especially see it if you pay attention to framing. On every mainstream platform, social issues are always first and foremost framed as "how can we afford this expensive social program!?!". It's always business friendly and worker hostile.
- lawn 2y agoHave you read the New York Times, CNN, or Washington Post for instance? It was a major deal that Biden's health was declining and he showed signs of dementia. But when Trump displays similar symptoms there's dead silence. There's a consistent "sane washing" of the crazy things Trump says across nearly all media and the double standard is unreal.
- amarcheschi 2y agoI swear that has been something that, as an European person, left me quite speechless. We've heard a lot about Biden mental situation, but nothing about the other guy struggling as well
- pseudo0 2y agoHe's nowhere near as bad as Biden. The media downplayed Biden's senility until the disastrous debate made it impossible. Americans got to see both candidates talk without a teleprompter for a couple hours, and Trump was able to handle it easily, while Biden exhibited clear signs of mental decline. Trump has a rambling oratory style, but that is more of a stylistic affection.
- lawn 2y agoWhy deflect towards Biden? The question isn't if he's better or worse than Biden, the question is if he's well enough for the presidency. And he's shown very clear signs of mental decline the last months. Neither Trump nor Biden should have been chosen as candidates, yet all the focus has been on Biden.
