I think the dread pirate Crenshaw will make a video in which he parachutes at night, executes a rolling landing, serpentines through a minefield while under fire and then blows up the Bulwark article with a satchel charge. This will be intended as an expression of his serious conservative bona fides.

Cramer is kind of mainstream media so this goes here.
For those of us without 20/20, the issue here is that Cramer posted a picture of an aisle going through a Valentine’s Day reset as evidenced by the shelving that has little hearts on it.
Maybe he means it’s suboptimal that we’re getting Valentine’s Day reminders in December.

My local grocery store had removed X-Mas stuff by 12-21 and the area where that was would have looked like that. Fox would have said they were ending X-Mas.
Maybe that’s why my traditional local go-to stores for stocking stuffers and the like didn’t have Christmas stuff, but were hella ready for Valentine’s Day.
You really can’t overstate how stupid Tom Friedman is.
Look, his taxi driver told him they would vote for such a ticket, alright?
There is a sort of precedent in Lincoln’s cross-party Union ticket of 1864, and I kinda like the Democracy First angle, but yeah, probably not gonna work out well electorally.
That, plus if it did work out electorally, we’d be putting a torture apologist with many other terrible policy views into the line of succession behind the oldest president in American history. What could go wrong?
Strange bedfellows etc. But yeah, given Biden’s age, you really want to think carefully about that second in line slot.
The math checks out. Biden would lose 50% of the Democratic vote, gain 0% of the Republican vote, and gain 100% of the reflexively centrist smug upper class aging white male columnist vote. Of course, only one of those groups counts.
I mean, he would get Tom Friedman’s vote and David Brooks’s vote. What more can you ask for?
They will have a hard time against the Pence / Saunders ticket.
And just imagine the Cthulhu/Nurgle ticket potential!

Well, we already had a Azathoth/Formless spawn of Tsathoggua administration.
Biden is not properly operating the Republican bots.

Chuck Todd is the New York Times Pitchbot minus the irony.

I think this is actually NOT mainstream media, but we don’t have a generic “garbage media” thread.
