  • You need to step out of your echo chamber once in a while… whether you want to blame the pandemic or Trump, Biden received a steaming pile of shit and the general consensus from all objective analysts, regardless of party, is that the Biden administration has done an admirable job under very difficult circumstances.

  • I’m not going to give serious time to non-serious questions. You’re going to have to at least show you tried to think of how this could be manipulative.

Any time there is a hint of manipulation (such as trimming down to sound-bites), you should push back.
