May 2019

and bullshit reviews are coming in - as expected:

The Atlantic:

Running With Beto suggests the power of that branded authenticity; it also suggests its severe limitations. The documentary about the making of a political celebrity is also, at this point, a story about the unmaking of one: It airs on HBO during a moment of distinct Beto fatigue.

So 'Beto fatigue' is now a thing, and it has become endemic according to pundits. Disgusting.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
