also what exactly was that message? I’m sure there are a total of 10 people who could list any policy or message from Biden
Probably a narrower margin than what Trump won with in 2016.
They really don’t give a shot about winning if they can deflect with the “moral” victory of winning the popular vote.
Everyone knows the most progressive president™ has to start out with a big ringing endorsement for fracking. God forbid he did something loony like talk about nuclear
"Nothing will fundamentally change." "If you believe Tara Reade, don't vote for me."
The republicans should run an incel so the libs can twist themselves in knots about violent misogynist rhetoric and harassment vs sexual assault.
look you don't understand, his sober message was about fighting for the soul of America, or something. we got America's soul back, so now everything's fine.
Already actively running from 'most progressive' huh? I thought he'd at least have spent some time in office before libs decided to drop the pretense
i remember one Biden policy proposal, something about shooting people in the legs
Best bit is it's true. Biden won the presidency (just,) failed to win the senate and set the dems up for failure in 4 yrs because his platform of 'nothing will fundamentally change'
Trump gaining 8M new voters in 4 years? Must have been all that Sober Messaging his administration was known for.
Yeah my first thought seeing this headline. If covid hadn't happened would have no doubt been a trump landslide. But no I'm sure it was biden's moderate policies
NYT hacks were never going to believe anything else, regardless of the evidence. It's about getting to working-class liberals, not media assholes.
edit: of course, the media assholes are still relevant. I'm sure they get to some people before we do.
oh yeah, for sure, agreed.
plus honestly, I would doubt the level of influence that the NYT has on actual working-class people who need to be brought into a true left coalition. It’s just funny to see the diehard liberals learn nothing from an embarrassing loss and narrow victory back to back
They voooted NOT for Trump. People would have voted for a broom handle. Of course they will use this as a ringing endorsement of centrism.
