well, you're wrong.  it was a great response.
In the context of the election i think you're right because I bet it moved his numbers.  I just think asking a presidential candidate what he thinks the sitting president should do is pretty reasonable.

this is pretty good on explaining beto's answer and why it resonated.

Had he answered this:
Quote
he should vanish. He can not stop being who he fundamentally is. He will not resign from office, repent, and enter seclusion. He does the bad things he does for reasons that are neither mysterious nor irrational, and so he can’t make things better any more than peddlers of junk food, narcotics, alcohol, and tobacco can improve the country’s physical health.
I would have found it a more cogent and reasonable response, rather than "wtf media, do your job."

Sometimes honest emotion resonates more than a well thought out emotionless responses that check all boxes and leave no room for misunderstanding. For me anyway.

More candidates should be openly swearing when appropriate imo. It’s a good look. Olds prob don’t think so, but they’re olds nomsayin??

Those "olds" you're referring to most likely swear a crap load more than the PC kids do nowadays.  :th_twocents:

I don't get what's wrong with the headline. Just that it was positive?

"bad" is perhaps not the right word. The media is in a tough spot because they can't have "bored trump drones though prepared remarks that he doesn't believe" as a headline, but it's the closest thing to the truth. "Trump urges unity vs racism" is just eyerolly. It's like a story on dax with the headline of "dax urges rationalism vs conspiracy theories"

It's also dumb if they really did cave and change the headline for the second printing.

they can, actually.  there is absolutely nothing stopping them from honestly describing the events in the world.

Fair and honest reporting is what pisses off Dax/Trump more than anything.

Bernie Sanders spends an hour with Joe Rogan.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I do believe Bernie is a genuinely good human being. That said I’d never vote for him unless it was him or Trump.
