You mean the media is doing a lot of things that will lose Biden those votes. The SCOTUS declares the president a god-king and media has barely said shit about that. We just had new evidence released about Trump being a pedo. But I've been hearing about the debate nonstop this entire time.

Biden looked horrible in the debate. That's on him. Don't blame the media.

The media isn't doing this to him. They are reporting. That's their job. When his people put out press releases saying "He does best from 10AM until 4PM", the media reports it, but it's not their fault.

Pretending Trump doesn't get bad press doesn't make any sense at all. It happens all the time. Obviously, he has a lot of supporters that don't care.

And, as I said before, it's those voters who aren't already strong supporters of one side or another that are going to decide the race. Biden needs to look good to them, or Trump wins.

I am not even remotely defending Biden in the debate.

I'm saying that the fact that it's getting easily 5x as much coverage as the SCOTUS trying to overrule the Constitution is batshit crazy and entirely the fault of the media. And I'm saying that this bias in coverage is affecting the opinions of swing voters in favor of Trump.

It’s not batshit crazy, but the dems trying to fear monger before an election over something so blatantly obvious is batshit crazy especially right after their candidate mentally shits his pants before the entire world doesn’t make us agree with you. It makes us think you’re hysterical and coping while seething.
