Chris Stirewalt's comments -- and Bernie Goldberg's too -- reveal an integrity and a calm rationality rare in today's polarized America. There seem to be so few of us who find faul -- egregious fault -- in both Donald Trump and Joe Biden: the latter is a pathological liar and hypocrite -- attacking Israel for supposedly not practicing democracy while ignoring the Iranians' shooting protestors in cold blood in the streets of Teheran -- and effectively the leader of a crime family worthy of the Corleon's, while Trump's vicious, baseless insinuation that Ron DeSandis is a gay child molester is just the latest of a series of tweets that in a sane world would disqualify Trump, on purely moral grounds, from holding political office ever again. And his dishonest sychophants at Fox -- Tucker Carlson disparaging female staffers as "c--ts" for rejecting Sidnie Powell's preposterous claims of election fraud while mouthing these claims on the air -- are nearly as reprehensible. What a breath of the proverbial fresh air it is to listen to Chris and Bernie consult the rational component of their minds, rather than their ids, before speaking on issues of genuine public concern.

It seems to me the Democrats are walking a bit of a tightrope. They want to damage Trump but if they damage him too much, they run the risk that he can’t win the nomination. Thoughts?
No. He was yapping before midnight before Arizona closed. The idea is that some may be turned away if they hear this. Would it have made a difference? Who knows..
Good broadcast. Interesting metaphor by Stirewalt regarding news selling Buicks to consumers - given Buicks today exist and are built by the Chinese for mainly the Chinese market. Yes news is now a boutique industry. Demographic specialists. We once had a Sears in every town - now we have a Victoria Secrets in each. Stirewalt, like others, did something the news was criticized for, years ago - calling elections before the polls closed..
