Nate Silver can fuck off: "Biden people who have PTSD because their boss couldn't reliably formulate a complete sentence

emptywheel (bluenose dolphin)
Nate was so busy snuffing his own farts that he didn't notice the Harris campaign got MORE cautious after she brought in the Obama folks he adores.

She should have fired all the Biden people who have PTSD because their boss couldn't reliably formulate a complete sentence. She's a much better candidate than Biden and should be doing more media

If it came from a staff member, that's no excuse. His reputation has taken a significant hit.

for the corrupters. Nate is now beholden to the holder of his debts. Sounds quite right. Tragic for us.

Biden had trouble communicating on ONE NIGHT, unfortunately, it was in front of a national audience. Most of the time, he seems to communicate fine. Trump regularly spouts nonsense, slurs his words, gets lost and switches topics mid-sentence, and he gets a pass.
