With democracy in the balance, the press must relay the crucial importance of this election and the dangers of a Trump win
The press must get across to American citizens the crucial importance of this election and the dangers of a Trump win. They don’t need to surrender their journalistic independence to do so or be “in the tank” for Biden or anyone else.
It’s now clearer than ever that Trump, if elected, will use the federal government to go after his political rivals and critics, even deploying the military toward that end. His allies are hatching plans to invoke the Insurrection Act on day one.
You're viewing a single thread.
it's so so sooooo difficult to take this language seriously. because EVERY election is phrased with this sky-is-falling rhetoric. i am 45 and for as long as i have been a voter, this-next-one is the-big-one.
nevertheless, i do actually think that this time bad things really will happen.
also, i want to get it out there that even though this guardian piece downplays "biden is old", i cannot stress enough that i will unconditionally NOT vote for biden. so these fuckers better put up a reasonable candidate very quickly.
In other words, you're going to help enable the "bad things" that you agree really will happen.
How brave of you.
I'm 50 something. 2015 was the only big one the USA has experienced during that time. Yet people were too goddamned moronic to see it.
I think you'd have to ignore everything Trump did 2016-20 and ignore what the SCOTUS has become to not see this election as the second big one.
But if Americans are really this idiotic, then I guess we will get what we deserve.
So... you're the proof of the article I guess?
