this is what every Biden ad should look like going forward

[Bernardo de La Paz]

21. Good highlights. The lead paragraph has a tale to tell, and Cowherd points the way

Sports talk radio host Colin Cowherd, who predicted a “red wave” at the 2022 midterms and accused Democrats of maliciously keeping children out of school during the pandemic, no longer believes former President Donald Trump is running a cogent campaign.

Cowherd, whose nationally syndicated radio show is simulcast on Fox Sports 1, declared as much after Trump was convicted Thursday of 34 felonies in a historic verdict.

The tale it tells is that someone who predicts red waves and imputes maliciousness where there is none can have the scales fall off his eyes and see much more clearly. When that happens, they turn on tRump.

It's not going the other way. There are no commentators giving up on Biden and switching to tRump.

This is the way to chip away at the edges of maga-dom and helping wobbly middle voters joining the cult, even for one day (Nov 5). Keep pointing out that what they see with their own eyes in their own lives does not match RepubliCONNER and tRump rhetoric. Keep pointing out that their sources constantly lead them astray such that they are repeatedly surprised by events.

"The trial has no merit, the defence is doing an excellent job, tRump will walk." Then "O for 34". Oops. Then they revert to the ever-present all-powerful bogeyman: The Deep State bought the judge and the jury and the prosecutors and .... Soros (the stand-in Jew they invoke when they are carefully avoiding exposing their anti-Jewish racism).

Yet nobody outs the Deep State. Not even in books published after they die or when they have terminal cancer and nothing left to lose.
