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.
For sure most of them I’ve met are people who lean sorta right because they’re just in their own little uninformed group, but most are too busy partying, surviving, or just literally dumb. Functional enough to hold a job, but when presented with anything out of their comfort zone, they implode.
