The press must get across to American citizens the crucial importance of this election and the dangers of a Trump win. They don’t need to surrender their journalistic independence to do so or be “in the tank” for Biden or anyone else.
It’s now clearer than ever that Trump, if elected, will use the federal government to go after his political rivals and critics, even deploying the military toward that end. His allies are hatching plans to invoke the Insurrection Act on day one.
I’m 50 something. 2015 was the only big one the USA has experienced during that time. Yet people were too goddamned moronic to see it.
I think you’d have to ignore everything Trump did 2016-20 and ignore what the SCOTUS has become to not see this election as the second big one.
But if Americans are really this idiotic, then I guess we will get what we deserve.

How did Obama and the DNC “give away” SCOTUS to the Republicans? You can’t be that stupid.

Republicans had control over the Senate. What were they supposed to do? The Constitution isn’t specific about what to do when a leader refuses to do their job so they can deny a SCOTUS seat to the opposition.

If we’re going to remain a nation of laws rather than men, then we have to be scrupulous in how we interpret and follow the law. I know you’re prepared to fight fire with fire, but once you validate the precedent of destroying authoritarians by behaving like an authoritarian, you completely remove any justification for opposing what they’re trying to do.
So please, sit down and shut the fuck up.
