Remember, people. Donald Trump couldn't run a casino.

A casino. A business that exists so people can just walk in and give you lots of money all for the hopes of maybe walking out with somewhat less money. And he failed. Six fucking times. He literally had thousands of people handing him money for nothing every single day and he still fucking failed.

That is a level of fail I did not think was achievable by a functioning human being allowed to go outside without adult supervision. But there are somehow 80 million people in this fucking country that know that and are still saying "Yep, that's our guy!"

Where the hell have they been? He's been unfit to lead since 2015.

Oh shit we forget to both sides this, quick put out a editorial.

now back to bashing Biden.

When has he ever been fit?

Did they just figure that out? I was thinking that back in 2015

He barely fits into people clothes.

Pfft. He doesn't plan to lead, or to serve. He plans to rule.

I agree but who the fuck cares what the NY Times says nowadays.

oh, gee, didn't their editor just say that advocating for or defending democracy was a partisan act, and that he wouldn't do it?

what's all this, then?

I'm gonna bet the up vote/down vote ratio between this story and the other from NYT calling for Biden to step down will be wildly different

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Saluting Republicans that it said “pursued electoral power in service to solutions for such problems”, such as Ronald Reagan, George HW Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney, the Times board went on to say that “too many Republicans set aside their concerns about Mr Trump because of his positions on immigration, trade and taxes.

Trump was convicted on 34 criminal charges concerning hush-money payments to a porn star that a jury agreed were designed to interfere with the 2016 election.

Trump was impeached a second time for inciting an insurrection but Republican senators acquitted him, leaving him free to run for office.

Instead of a cogent vision for the country’s future, Mr Trump is animated by a thirst for political power: to use the levers of government to advance his interests, satisfy his impulses and exact retribution against those who he thinks have wronged him.

It added that while Democrats “are rightly engaged in their own debate about whether President Biden is the right person to carry the party’s nomination into the election, given widespread concerns among voters about his age-related fitness”, the importance of that debate was down to “legitimate concerns that Mr Trump may present a danger to the country, its strength, security and national character – and that a compelling Democratic alternative is the only thing that would prevent his return to power.

It said it was a “national tragedy that the Republicans have failed to … [set] aside their longstanding values” and ignoring what former Trump officials “have described as his systematic dishonesty, corruption, cruelty and incompetence”, and urged American voters to “perform a simple act of civic duty in an election year: listen to what Mr Trump is saying, pay attention to what he did as president and allow yourself to truly inhabit what he has promised to do if returned to office”.
