:both-sides: :centrist:
It helps that while it's a dumb sentence, the looping point kind of made a complete sentence. "We're for the common sense consensus ... on both sides"
“We’re for the common sense consensus … on both sides”
New site tagline?
imagine if cnn went this hard on a democrat or republican...they'd have more views
Never seen Pelosi or Biden asked to take a clear position on anything lmao
If people today could see the first broadcasts of CNN back when Ted Turner had his brain turd idea of 24 hour news, most would be confused and surprised. I remember rolling my eyes and thinking "what a stupid idea, there isn't enough news in a day to make for compelling enough TV to warrant spending my valuable time watching it. I'd much rather share this gallon of McNaughton's, smoke a few blunts with friends and try to hijack a freight ship from a canoe. With a single machete." True story.
Everything about CNN today is based on the successful engagement technique that Fox news created for just the reason you described. CNN, MSNBC and the rest are just like Fox news in any meaningful analysis. They are focus-group derived engagement content and absolutely nothing else.
Yeah 24 hours news was always a bad idea. So bad that it took the creation of Fox news to make it work lol
"We must move forward, not backward; upward, not forward; and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!"
We all know Ratboy is CIA, but I've had the feeling since 2020 that Yang's campaign was an op, or some libertarian donor freaks working an angle. His campaign targeted teenagers even more than actual voters. It was basically an attempt to use the promise of UBI (a libertarian UBI scheme at that) to try and steer attention and enthusiasm away from Bernie but also socialism more generally among younger people.
Someone looked at polling of socialism being more popular with the youths and badically ran a "hello fellow kids" campaign. The message was perfectly designed for less engaged, less experienced people, more online people, especially those too young to have to care as much about healthcare yet because they're teenagers still living at home, and would look at a 1000 yang bucks as even more valuabe because they aren't renting/living on their own.
Awful speaker. Like, I guess I understand what he wanted to say but he let the anchor walk all over and paint him as the centrist idiot everyone thinks he is, which he might be but it didn’t really seem like he was taking a ‘centrist’ position just rewording the common lib position to make it seem like it’s reaching across the aisle.
I don't know if he's really a bad speaker. I mean he expresses himself clearly, its just that his positions are all stupid
The "common sense, consensus position" outside of Washington lanyards is to redistribute the wealth of every gross rich person to provide everyone with their basic needs. Or it would be if you actually gave people that option lmao.
I had to pause it to laugh after Jim Acosta talked to him like a parent lecturing a child
Imagine getting owned this bad by this CNN dork lmaooo
So what are the chances of Andrew Yang being the Ross Perot of 2024? I'd say somewhere around 10%. He's not as charismatic or popular with the masses from what I can see, but he's going to try and be.

i feel bad for him but only bc thats how boomers have talked to me my entire life
Nah fuck him the boomer reporter was actually on point here, he asked the right questions. I wish these ghoul reporters were as aggressive when interviewing their regular puppetmasters.
