Legitimate concern like posting this?

For those unaware of what the clock test is, Google it. I'm sure it hit EA hard in the funny bone. So hard he forgot to be mad about media treating Biden one way and Trump another.

How strange that every time I point out the central flaw in your reasoning, you ignore it and offer a variation of, "Lol. Triggered!?" It's because you can't defend what you are saying, either because you're too blinded by your own self-regard to notice or too embarrassed to own up to such a simple mistake. Either way, cool. My advice? Just keep calling me an anarchist some more because I dare uttered a concern about the political messiah that is *checks notes* Joe Biden.
It is TDS.
“A” (Trump) is wrong and terrible, so therefore, “B”, anyone but “A”, is as you put it, the messiah.
There is obviously something wrong with Joe, Jill is protecting him like Nancy Reagan, or Glen Campbell’s wife were when Ronald and Glen were first getting sick.
But anyways EA, you are suppose to be a good partisan, sit boy sit.
Don't take life so seriously in that " sooner or later we are just old men in funny clothes" "Tom 'T-Bone' Wolk"

We'll be back to Ukraine, Biden's fitness for office, etc. now that the tables have turned. Once the primary is over, the media will start obsessively covering whatever Republicans want them to cover to prove how fair and balanced they are. Voters - the ones who can be persuaded - are fickle creatures who think what cable news tells them to think.
You know how the media obsessively covered Clinton's personal server story honor? That was a real story. It happened and it showed genuine impropriety on the part of Clinton. The problem with the media coverage is not that anyone brought it up ever. The problem with the media coverage was that the coverage wasn't proportionate to its appropriate context nor were scandals associated with Trump covered with the compartive seriousness they deserved. Complaining about the coverage is not the same as saying it was not an issue at all.
One can complain that the media is not going to cover Biden's mental health issues in context properly while also thinking Biden's mental health issues are a legitimate issue. Biden's age and associated decline is potentially disqualifying if not for the fact that the alternative is what it is. That you don't think this doesn't mean other people think as you do. Minds exist outside yourself.

Re: How the Democrats win in a Landslide
EA doesn't like Democrats and never has. That's not a surprise. He isn't behaving in a way that I find surprising. It is just fun to poke this sore spot since apparently being called on it bothered him enough post about a dozen posts all saying different versions of nuh uh!

Yes, it's mocking the idea that Biden seems like he is sliding into Alzheimer's. That's the joke. It's the same joke premise as "I'm Joe Biden and I forgot this message." Apparently, you think think political humor is only for candidates you don't like.

Re: How the Democrats win in a Landslide
No. I just think a person who shares that sort of meme should be a bit more circumspect when bitching about media behavior that pushes a negative theme about a particular candidate. You know, being a hypocrite.
You can't have your self-righteousness and biases, too, EA. You keep trying to paint this as not being rooted in your personal views, and that it is somehow this objective political assessment of the political landscape. It wasn't and you got busted being yourself.

So you think that if a person thinks the media covered Clinton's personal server story irresponsibly, they're a hypocrite if they dare mention that Clinton did something wrong because they're then contributing to the problem? Your understanding of hypocrisy is profoundly screwed up. I mean, that's been well-established here, but I guess I'll point that out one more time.
Biden isn't even the nominee yet and here you are arguing that people can't simultaneously believe the media will handle Republican attacks on him irresponsibly and its possible that some of those attacks nonetheless are based in something that has merit. Does it get more insufferable from here on out?

Re: How the Democrats win in a Landslide
Pick a narrative EA. Was it a funny meme or was it genuine concern out of cold, unbiased political concern?
You got caught being used because you found something funny that played to your dislike of centrist Clinton and Obama Democrats. It's what it is.

It's a joke based on a real concern. You have heard of humor, right?

Re: How the Democrats win in a Landslide
No I haven't. Tell me about this thing that explains why you got played by someone pushing a negative meme on the internet even as you complained about that being a thing. I'm super interested in what this thing is you call "humor". Sounds useful for trying talk ones way out of a jam.
