    It’s the quantity of the same rehashed narrative that is pissing me off.

    And that must mean that there’s a conspiiiiiiiracy to make Biden look bad? That it’s astroturf? No. People are noticing that all “he’s fine! he just has a stutter/a cold/jet lag/etc” narrative that the party has been going with was utter garbage. Biden keeps saying shit that makes him look unwell. The press runs with shit like that and always has. Quayle’s potato. Dean’s scream. Bill Clinton’s blowie. GWB’s mission accomplished banner. GHWB’s “read my lips” speech.

    The press isn’t Biden’s PR flack squad. Biden fucked up, and the party fucked up by trying to keep everyone from knowing what is now undeniable.
