CNN lost everything last night. Everything
Because even after nine years of spreading lies, violence, dehumanizing hate, conspiracy theories, racism, division, and every other form of extremist, left-wing propaganda, CNN’s fascist, entitled, spoiled, crybully, tiny base of viewers will never forgive CNNLOL for not sabotaging Trump last night.
For nine years, CNN sowed the wind with Trump Hate and will now reap the Ratings Whirlwind for allowing a presidential debate to happen last night.
Yes, my fellow Normal People, on Thursday night, Biden dropped his pants and CNN slit its checkmated throat.
And it was glorious.

I think it’s true. Once you are on the propaganda band wagon, you can’t get off. Fail, even once, to castigate the enemy, and you become the enemy.
It is why CNN was the vehicle. They were so low in ratings and credibility that what did they have to lose? The other networks, including PBS, while also mere shadows of what they once were, weren’t going to jeopardize what little economic value and status they had left, to participate in exposing their flawed, decrepit candidate.
All that said, and even though it likely wasn’t INTENDED that way, the format imposed on Trump probably worked to his advantage. As Don Jr himself noted. It allowed Trump to stay cool. And Jake didn’t show his venal stripes quite like he usually did before. (so it was said … I didn’t tune in)
Personally, I’m not fond of LISTENING to Trump. But I like how he thinks and (much of) what he does. I’ve separated them in my mind.
