The media really is pro-fascism

One thing I agree with Mango Mussolini, but for the wrong reasons.

TFG committed sedition and espionage, and despite historic wins for the Democratic party, the media is waiting with baited breath for his stupid announcement, and just putting all the attention on the treasonous bastard.

It's like 2016 all over again - endless free publicity, while ignoring Democratic successes. The fact that he is even allowed to run again proves this country is a failure.

Next time he might be successful. You can attempt a coup without consequences, so, why not keep trying until you succeed?

Some, convinced he'll win.

Most, convinced he's a patsy and "good" for the Democratic Party's electoral chances in 2024. He'll win primaries, and have little support apart from the 60% of 40% of the electorate. Landslide!

I had Alex Wagner on, and they started talking about him and then tuned into the speech. I changed the channel.
