    This is just circular reporting. A bunch of outlets start pushing an opinion, so the opinion gets louder. Now the loudness of the opinion is the story.

    Hey did you hear that Obama’s talking about that shit that every news outlet has been shoving down our throats multiple times per day for the past several months? Obama!

    Want Trump to lose? Quit sharing this shit every five minutes and instead find an article about how much organizing voters can shake up an election.

      Can’t we keep Whitmer for a little longer?

      I’m good with a Warren/Harris ticket. In this environment, I do not see female and not white gaining traction if Biden does decide to step aside. I want policy, not platitudes. And the GOP is geared up to explain to their brainwashed masses how bad a minority woman would screw them over. I’d give a lot for the timeline where the recount happened instead of Bush v. Gore.

      it’s less about stating the obvious, and more about seeing Biden’s closest ally in the party start to join the chorus. Obama saying “I still think Joe has a shot” carries a lot of weight, even in the face of every other strategist saying the opposite.
