It's because they cast themselves as the resistance, but only in one direction. The huge scandal here is not just that the media covered for Joe Biden, a person in power.

The majority of American journalists have degrees from fancy universities. They're in the top 10%.

to the hegemony of the elites, both from a cultural point of view, a political point of view, but most importantly, an economic point of view. That's the story here.

acting like somehow they deserve credit for speaking truth to power now that he no longer has any more power. And to me, that is the worst part about this, the godlessness here of humiliating the person that they protected because now he's powerless to defend himself against them. And that also is a very important piece of this story.

I honestly have not seen him getting a lot of plaudits. I have seen wall-to-wall contempt. I've seen a lot of that meme of the guy in the hot dog suit, you know, pointing to the hot dog car that crashed into the store and saying, we're all looking for the guy who did this, right? Um...

The people lining up to now humiliate President Biden in these interviews are not doing so because they think that this book is going to be hard on the Democrats. They're doing so because they believe that this book is their best chance at laundering the reputation of the party. It is a performance art of accountability like so much else in the Democratic Party right now.
