Hunter's Gatherers

As a private company, Twitter was quite within its rights to suppress on its platform the story of Hunter Biden's laptop. It clearly took a corporate view in support of Joe Biden's Presidential candidacy, and no one will find that remotely surprising.

Therefore, the people involved should simply state those as the facts. The line that they are taking instead is contemptible. If they were not trying to influence the Presidential Election, then what were they doing? And if Donald Trump would have lost anyway, then why were they bothering to do it?

  1. Imagine if neither Biden nor Trump was the nominee in 2024.

    1. No madder than the fact that both of them were on the ballot last time, I suppose.

  2. Hopefully the Republicans will pick Scourge of the Woke Ron DeSantis.

    1. Let him come, and let him disappoint you when he does. A two-term Governor of Florida is like a two-term Mayor of London.

  3. Oh he’s swept Florida with a far bigger majority than last time. Unlike any of Trump’s candidates…

    He’s been superbly rightwing on everything from immigration, abortion and coal mining to the preposterously misnamed “Don’t Say Gay” bill.

    1. No one ever did better the second in Florida by being like that. I hope you get what you want. You might learn.

  4. He just did. And all the indications are he’s far more popular than Trump, especially among the Latino voters that the Republicans badly need to win over.
