the media would continue running with this.

Personally, I think this is a sign that the corporate media are beginning to become very nervous that Biden MIGHT defeat Trump. The SOTU was a shot across the bow, something they weren't expecting, and they seized on Biden's performance (perhaps showing the first signs of Covid?) at the debate to bring out the big guns.

We keep thinking that Biden SHOULD be winning at this point, but from where I'm sitting, all the the polls tell me is that despite the massive amount of mudslinging, Biden is holding his own. We haven't had the Dem convention yet, the GOP convention has been a shitshow, and yet Biden is holding his own.

There's also more good news - Cannon is no longer in charge of the Trump document case and Jack Smith is taking it to the appeals court, Trump will be sentenced in early September JUST as early voting starts, and there are new indictments regarding destruction of electronic evidence that are turning into another criminal case. Oh, and Trump keeps falling asleep on national TV at his own convention, further undermining the narrative.
