Think the top of your news feed would look this normal if Harris had fellated a microphone stand the previous day?

Even at this extreme, the normalizing and sane-washing continues to the bitter end.

Reuters ignores what would destroy anyone else's campaign, especially Harris's campaign, and goes with a completely anodyne shot, tra la la, just another day on the campaign trail.

I can't see anyone in Reuters writing a headline about it. Hopefully, it's still reported on somewhere in a Reuters story because it was inappropriate and weird AF.

Maybe just "shocking behavior" if they were feeling prim, but they sure as hell wouldn't act like it was just another day on the ol' campaign trail.

if it had been Kamala Harris who had five children by three spouses.

The gaslit hypocrisy by the press is never going to end.
