      Jeet Heer Retweeted debdrens

      In order to destroy Biden, Giuliani and the New York Post have decided to highlight private messages that show Biden to be an anxious, concerned, loving father who wants his son to recover -- really underscoring what is best about Biden. Amazing.https://twitter.com/debdrens/status/1317238975707385857 …

      between this and the mr. rogers stuff...just a wild way to attack an opponent. "our rival is a kindly old man who loves his son despite everything! he sucks!"

      It's like they accept the Biden campaign's framing that this is between a monster and a decent person -- they just think voters will prefer the monster.

          They are somewhat justified in thinking that. Their monstrousness has been on full display for a while now.

          They absolutely think that. Their core supporters think decency & selflessness are weaknesses and that selfishness is a sign of strength. I keep finding myself arguing about virtue with “conservative” friends. World gone mad

          I know, I know, read another book not written by a bigot, but the values comparison between Trump/MAGA and Voldemort/Death Eaters is shockingly close.

          There is a not insignificant part of the base that does prefer the monster. That’s sort of the problem

          It's that they accept Trump's framing that everything is about dominance and winners v losers. But the Biden bet is that people are turned off by that worldview.

          It’s the inverse of the Ukraine telephone transcript. Despite it clearly showing Trump abused his power, he insisted that the call was “perfect”.

          That pretty well describes Trump voters.
