That picture of a masked Joe Biden with the press. I STILL see Trump supporters using the "Joe hiding in his basement" crap. They literally have NOTHING, so they cling to outdated Trumpkin tropes. I *almost* feel sorry for them, but then I remember who they support, and that fades quickly.

It's pathetic, if not surprising, how fast many fauxgressives, naturally including Glenn Greenwald, got so happy over Trump's comments about the Pentagon, going on about how he says the truth, that he has run against Republicans more than the Clintons ever did, that this is why he will win, etc. The left is still so divided and so eager to amplify and lap up anything Trump says. 

 

I do believe Trump has been skimming off the top, and I also believe many are robbing him blind, but I also feel like they are trying to lull Biden's campaign into a false sense of security as they have a ton of outside help (including Swiftboat veterans). Fortunately I don't think Biden's people are falling for it, and the blatantly biased media (which just today was trying to tsk-tsk Biden for telling groups that Trump has caused their problems) is probably keeping them on their toes as well.

Whenever Trump screws up, the Greenwald left jumps to turn it into a "both sides" thing. It's like clockwork and yet another example of why these people aren't allies.

 

That said, I don't think the left is all that divided. The Twitter left is acting increasingly stupid but the rest of the world is tired of this. The fringe left is acting out because if this election turns out the way it's looking to, they are done. Every narrative they've fed us since 2016 dies. They need Trump as much as MAGA does.

    • Jenn was a huge part of the success of Days back in the day, and that contribution shouldn't be dismissed.  With that said, I do think her and Jack's time on the show should remain as occasional visits/drop ins. When Missy returns to play Jenn, Jenn is back to being Jenn.   Jenn in her glory days was head strong, fiesty, and was a live wire.... and her scenes with Jack on Friday was classic Jenn with Jack being the voice of reason.   It was the foundation of their relationship back in the day.    
    • Claire was always tightly wound, I think what Long was going to do is to throw the three into this impossible situation with no bad guys, Mo, knowing how to take care of kids from growing up but unable to conceive and Claire, who didnt know how to take care of kids and was totally focused on her career, gets knocked up.  Ryder took Claire off the deep end as a convenient way to make story for characters he wasnt interested in (though Pratt blames McTavish) with little effort. It was later explained to be a brain tumor (though why was she a bitch again when she returned?) \ Claire did sleep with Rick, she was his first!
    • I'm sorry, truly I am, but this literally made me LOL. Tempting fate, much?

    • Oh, I have very little doubt that Missy feels some way personally and privately.  Donna was just saying she actively spoke out against Days in public in reference to the gay storylines, which she did not. I don't have super strong feeling about Jen one way or another.  She was always a side character to me.  I still think Missy is Jen regardless of her stupid beliefs.
    • I hated the swap-over; Clayton Norcross, to me, was far superior in the role of Thorne than Jeff Trachta ever was. And the recast left me disliking Thorne when he was the superior son to me. As for Teri Ann Linn, I feel like she got the raw deal. Kristen was very clear as a forefronting character, especially in her rivalry with Stephanie, and it feels like she was dropped off for Felicia, and they never returned it. Not to mention the subpar recast with Tracy Melchior in 2001. Someone like Brenda Epperson (ex-Ashley, Y&R) would've been more suited for that role.
    • I just remember when Leo was marrying Craig (?), Greg Rikaart stated a line and made direct eye-contact with Melissa Reeves, and when the camera cut to her, she looked away.

       Rikaart had a mission that day, and he succeeded.
