MSM Coverage of the Presidential Debate, June 2024

 Over and over, I'm seeing descriptions of the debate which go much like this:

"Donald Trump, former President and convicted felon awaiting sentencing, lied his ass off, as he always does -- but Joe had a cold and stuttered. A clear, crushing win for Trump!"

How about if you focus on those lies Trump told, go through them and refute them one by one, mainstream media -- you know: how about if you did your job for once? Remind people of what a disaster Trump's presidency was, and how another term under Trump would definitely be worse? 

You know: the way you did for about 12 hours on January 6, 2021, when Trump's lunacy finally hit home close enough to you that it scared you into actually talking about what had been going on under your noses for 5 years, instead of your endless, useless twaddle about polls and trends and images and perceptions? When the tide of Trumpian crap temporarily scared you into letting your actual opinions show, your opinions about what you study all day every day for a living, letting them show on actual TV, where they might benefit people who are busy with a lot of other things, but who would nevertheless care greatly about politics if you simply talked to them about it? If you would simply, finally do your jobs.

Trump tried to shut down the EPA, called climate change a hoax, he separated refugee children from their parents at the border, he waged a cold war against American Muslims, he let countless people die of COVID because those people simply weren't nearly as important to him as his delusional self-image -- and a second Trump term would be much worse, but it's more important to you to focus on every single time Joe stutters! You're so much worse than useless!
