1/ Yeah-I& #39;ve-a-fucking-position-thread warning:
I know I& #39;ve plenty of followers who won& #39;t be voting, and definitely not voting Trump. That& #39;s fine, but I will be, and today& #39;s NYT article on the Reade allegations has a lot to do with why.

2/ I& #39;ll honestly admit, I believe for anything real to change in our governance, the media, as it stands today, has to break. At best, the media we have is a poor facsimile of journalism... pretenders looking sternly into a camera, or vomiting pretzel-twists of logic onto print.
3/ The gatekeeping, the bloated personalities, the obvious ache for a status quo that maintains their power. If you want a path to any sort of future that& #39;s not more of the same, they& #39;re who you have to get past.
And nobody is wrecking the media like Trump.

4/ They& #39;ve been tuned up to 11... blowing up every action, every word, every association, for more than 3 years now. Only after an explosion like Kavanaugh they find themselves having to twist and turn to back down the narrative for Joe Biden, to reset the rules.
5/ The machine has been running full tilt... we& #39;ve seen signs of the smoke coming out of it. Calling for silencing Trump& #39;s press conferences, shortly after demanding he restore pressers in the first place.
Another 4 years should pretty much break it. Can& #39;t happen too soon.
