    i'm trying to understand why they sent deniro in the first place.

    was michael rappaport busy today?

    in all seriousness, this was a dumb move. biden is trying to give the election away.
    Why do you think it's dumb to call out the criminality of your political opponent?  

    To be clear, I'm not exactly for or against any such strategy, as I haven't thought about it deeply.  But will DeNiro turn "non-committed" voters to Trump?  I don't see how.  In fact, how many non-committed voters can there really be with these two?  I feel like it's 100% about turnout. 
    it should have been an actual biden spokesperson. 

    deniro is talking to the choir here. what good is it for him to potentially get into a confrontation with trump supporters here? in my opinion more bad can come from it than good.

    it is about turnout. but if i am from a rural community in the south, i am not going to listen to some loudmouth with a new york accent. kind of like how if i am from new york or california, i am not going to listen to some dude from south carolina or alabama or florida yelling at me about something i already know. i'm just not.
    the thing is, with these maga idiots, everyone preaching against trump is preaching to the choir. if you're voting trump at this point, not even zombie jesus coming back will convince you.

    What is the point of having Robert Deniro representing Biden today? How is this a good idea?
    Is he “representing” Brandon or just a private citizen with “star power” sharing his personal views in a public forum of outside the courthouse? Seems there are private citizens representing POOTWH outside the courthouse so why can’t Robert, who lives in NYC, I believe, stroll down and speak to the assembled press and bystanders and “represent” Brandon.

    I encourage everyone to speak up and out, even those with views I vehemently disagree with.
    Regardless of whether he's representing or just sharing his opinion, if a Democrat-leaning 'star' shows up at the courthouse where Trump's on trial to preach anti-Trump rhetoric, it's quite obvious that Trump will claim it shows interference from the Biden administration, and it's quite obvious that his base will agree. Does that matter? Who knows.
    I mean, he showed up with members of the Biden campaign team. He's also narrating a new tv ad for Biden. 

    It's just a tone deaf look when half the country already, albeit not necessarily correctly, views the dems as elites that are out of touch with ordinary Americans. 




    Didn't know those facts, but given that, fully agree.
    My confidence levels in this campaign are sadly not high. Biden is currently losing to a guy who is staring down a possible criminal conviction this week....
    At this point I’m thinking Trump would have the same numbers regardless of whoever the dem candidate is.

    Maybe. Maybe not. Biden has accomplished a lot. He and his administration have just been really bad at letting people know about it. Part of that is on him not being a great communicator at this point in this life. I hate to say it but if he was 15 years younger, I bet his approval #'s would still be about where they were three years ago and he'd be cruising to a landslide victory.

    i think people are just so fatigued with both trump and biden. its been 9 fucking years that we have been hearing about trump every single day.

    unfortunately trump seems to want the job more than biden does. trump is demanding the job and begging for it. i think some people may be like "ok fine if it will shut him up." he lost in 2020 and never ever went away. look at herschel walker. he lost and nobody has heard from him since. dr oz too. this is how you are supposed to lose.

    even if trump loses this year, he is still not going away. we are going to hear about him in the news every single day until his health deteriorates to the point where he is incapacitated or until the day he dies.

     the media is 1000% responsible for covering citizen trump every day. they treat him like royalty. if they ignored him, or at least stopped normalizing him it would be better for the country.

    so what was said in deniros speech that was egregious or detrimental to bidens campaign? I'll read back but the objection thus far seems not be about content but messenger? deniro wasnt the only speaker as well.

    he got into it with a heckler. 

    plus fanone and harry dunn were there, which was just begging for maga scorn and heckling. to me, responding to that drowned out his entire message.

    democrats should be above the juvenile crap maga does every day. democrat messaging should be "we are here running the country so you do not have to worry about all of the sideshow political carnival barker bullshit from maga." it is all about the show and its all just so embarrassing.

    POOTWH will be found guilty. Will immediately appeal and will never see a day in jail. Appeals process will drag on for years or until a repub governor pardons him. That’s my prediction.

    accepting a pardon requires admission of guilt,  no?

    Sure does but accepting guilt and the bs’ing how you had to do it and how it was a witch hunt to begin with will follow. POOTWH doesn’t feel shame and wouldn’t give a fuck if it keeps him out of prison. Look at Paulie Manaforte and Roger Dodger Stoned. Both accepted pardons and are going on in life like nothing ever happened. No harm, no foul.

    If my co-worker is any sort of bellweather as to MAGA sentiment, Deniro's been persona non grata with them for some time now.... I can't see yesterday's appearance making much difference in that regard.

    Agreed. Here's a pretty good op-ed about Deniro's appearance.  
    The real meaning of the De Niro stunt - by The Ink

    Narratives matter, and the narrative that trump is a crook / slumlord / dirtbag / all around piece of shit needs to be broadcast ad nauseum.
