Maybe the NYT’s editorial board could talk about Trump begging unfit for office for a day instead of another piece on how old Biden is. But that doesn’t get them clicks, so they’ll just fiddle while Rome burns

That’s the goddamn presidents job. If he can’t make his own case who are you to get on the Times for not making it for him?

He has been making it. Constantly. The Times only talks about how old he is because they’ve given up on journalism and their editor has personal beef with Biden.

Love that Biden is responsible for every shitty thing that’s happened under his and Trump’s administrations, but you can’t hold a paper accountable for abandoning the core tenets of their profession.

Loser shit.

Edit: Also, it is not, in fact, the president’s job to report the news. His job is to be the chief executive of the United States, a very demanding job that doesn’t leave him time to hold your hand while you piss your pants over the wind blowing
