If only the New York Times had made this big of a deal in December 2022 when Trump called for “termination” of the Constitution. (That ran on Page 13. Yes, Page 13.)

In 1936, FDR closed out his re-election campaign by bragging to a massive crowd at Madison Square Garden that “organized money” hated him “and I welcome their hatred.” He took 60% of the vote in a 523-8 electoral college landslide. FDR knew having the right enemies could be a useful thing.

"These people are all petulant, vindictive idiots who actively harm everyone around them and should be nowhere near power" is a hypothesis that explains both the micro and macro dynamics here.

if you ask me one way journalists could make a story last thru news cycles is to continue to do journalism about it

exactly. the fact that it is stupid interpersonal drama gives media an in to make tariffs, the constitutional crisis, and oligarchy bigger news as well. acting above it or cynical is just dampening coverage that hurts Musk and Trump.

I do not understand this tendency among journalists to reduce every political event to a prediction about whether it will be a lasting news cycle. On the merits, we have a billionaire who helped a fascist get into power and now believes he can dictate policy. That matters! A lot!

It's worth noting here that Elon's principal objection to the reconciliation bill is that its Medicaid cuts are not nearly savage enough. If Elon wants to damage Trump great but there's no Dem tent big enough to include the "kill hundreds of thousands of poor Africans for kicks" guy

Remember the whole thing started because Biden didn't invite Elon to the White House once. Kids are dead, USAID is no more, our essential government systems likely compromised by DOGE, all because of these guy's egos and appetite for cruelty.

the reason this is the defining event of the Harris campaign for a lot of people is that they hang out in circles that are as functionally as anti-Democratic as MAGA is, and they’re spoonfed narratives that rationalize their hatred, also like MAGA

I can't stress enough how wrong and disingenuous the most recent wave of COVID revisionism is. The only period when Democratic counties had higher death rates was April-May 2020. From June 2020 onwards, Republican laxity and denialism were the most powerful force driving deaths.

The New York Times insists on treating Christopher Rufo not as a far-right activist who has been successfully pushing an ideologically defined rightwing agenda, but as a respectable conservative voice and a serious interlocutor on key political issues. That is an active, deliberate choice.

Not only is this not true but even if it were it would be horrible because it would means 10 million+ people would go from having adequate healthcare coverage to being underinsured and exposed to ruinous levels of medical debt. We really need to stop thinking of health insurance as a 0/1 variable.

That's right. Dems think "Turning down the temperature" means they'll be perceived as reasonable adults, but what it actually means is THEY WON'T BE PERCEIVED AT ALL, because they'll leave the headlines, which means that public opinion will be once again governed by atmospheric social media vibes.

More broadly, political commentators & strategists need to get it into their head that most people’s “opinions” on most political topics are so shallow as to be virtually nonexistent. The practice of polling itself has manufactured this illusion that voters have views on every imaginable policy.

Just 35% of Americans approved of what Musk was doing in the government, according to a poll from April. 57% disapproved, with 46% strongly disapproving. If Dems are serious about only supporting ideas that are popular, they would never entertain the idea of allying with a guy who was so hated.

Again, these groups are attempting to retcon the 2024 election we all lived through to claim Dems overly catered to Big Trans or The Groups or whatever. In fact, Republicans—and via them the media—are the ones who zeroed in on the culture war while we focused on economic issues. We still lost.

Much of the media will hold Democrats accountable for the words of a random liberal online but give Republicans a free pass on the white nationalists and conspiracy theorists they actually meet with in person and follow online.
