    I was going to say who asked her…

    But apparently she wrote the opinion piece herself?

    Since Biden supporters kept saying NYT are conservatives for not supporting Biden, did we really wind up in a broken clock situation where they acknowledge Hillary is rightwing?

    Or have they immediately moved past that since Joe isn’t on the ballot anymore?

      Nothing says the shining light of democracy for the downtrodden like speaking for bankers at 250k a pop!

      I don’t want to hear a single thing from either of these nightmares. The party would do well to divest entirely.

      It’s no secret that the American electorate is right-of-center in the grand scale of things. We just don’t give a fuck since we know we’re dealing with the realities of our own country and voters. Regular, American, voters. Not all the most deep-thinking folks all the time, you understand. So the accusation of mainstream dems as right is academic and largely pointless, when American culture itself is right leaning. We’re a country that loves John Wick movies.

      Regarding the Times, rumor is the beef with Biden was personal. So now that he’s off the ballot they’re back to normal.
