I work as a waiter at Cipriani. I was there on Wednesday for Trump’s speech. They wouldn’t let us go upstairs while he was speaking so I watched the stream on my phone with some other waiters. Most of them were uninformed / undecided voters. They were very confused by the speech but as I broke down each proposal they got more and more angry at trump. I think all of them will vote blue after the speech. I can not stress enough how angering that all was. Also security was very intense. Security checkpoints at every room.

I was done with CNN after their odious hate-rally last year, during which they allowed a rape-victim to be slandered anew while a crowd of losers guffawed. The situation was made worse by the Anderson Cooper's sneering contempt of those of us who took issue with their circus. And the debate was a sickening travesty. Yes, Biden wasn't up to it. But Bash & Tapper, like most media twits, bent over backwards to avoid calling out trump for his nonsense. Even if they abandoned fact-checking, i.e. not calling out his rampant lies, they never took him to task for avoiding numerous questions.

@@ilovebrocoli6068 What good are they if they don't fact check? You can have grade schoolers in their place if all they're doing is asking questions.

Nope, they are worthless in that capacity.

What pissed me off the most is that when Dana asked about Trump questioning vice president Harris’ racial identity, I listened closely. She never asked it in the form of a question. She simply stated the talking point and then waited for Kamala to say something… I remember thinking what the hell going on here? Was there a question anywhere in that? I sure didn’t hear one. So, Kamala rightfully dismissed it and said next question. Then Dana has the gall to ask her, “ is that it?” Yes. That’s it. She’s not going to normalize Donnie’s behavior and address it at length just so you can have a juicy sound bite for your segment! I can’t stand Dana.

You guys understand that interview wasn't for us, or anyone who consumes Pod Save America, right? Like, we get that in the grand scope of media context, this show and platform represent a tiny fraction of both the audience at large and the electorate? If you are on top of it enough to know those are Republican talking points, then the interview wasn't for you. It was for your Aunt and your Granddad and everyone else who still, somehow, primarily gets their news from the TV. Fox lost a lot of viewers over the years. Their ratings say otherwise, because they gained plenty of younger viewers, but those people needed somewhere to go. We can have whatever opinion we want about corporate media, and I encourage the questioning attitude, but they're still one of the biggest players in the game. CNN is seen by conservatives, actual conservatives like the dudes at the Bulwark and the Never Trumpers, as being fairly center/center-left, making it an essential channel to talk to people on. Mayor Pete goes on Fox and speaks the truth to anyone who will give him air time on the basic hope that someone in the room just hasn't heard a reasoned and rationale argument. He's on the right wing platform delivering the left wing agenda in a palatable package. When Bash or Tapper talk to VP Harris about her candidacy, they're doing it from the perspective of a center-right person trying to hear her out. It's actually something of a good-faith conversation. Bash, Tapper, and the rest can't afford even the appearance of bias. They need anyone on the fence, and they do exist, not to have an excuse to start agreeing with Trump. If they are even seen to be "nasty" toward him, it validates his claims and makes the rest of his audacity seem more plausible. Bash's interview gives people an opportunity to listen to the Veep refute the talking points *in her own words*, with her own candor and humility. It answers the questions that those people might have rise in their minds. Most of these folks were convinced a long time ago not to vote for Trump, but they don't currently see their alternative as voting for Harris; they see their alternative as abstention. Informing that part of the electorate is still an important job, even if I personally find it and them exhausting.

This comment was clearly meant for “Floridaman”, but the “@“ got deleted. Their entire purpose on this channel appears to be “owning the libs”. They clearly weren’t asking that question of you in good faith. I was actually *defending* you. But I’ll bite, even if this was all due to a simple click error. In what way, specifically, have I ever “trolled you” in the past? Also, maybe lay off the personal attacks. You resorted to that pretty quickly, without simply asking me to clarify what I meant, or whatnot. I simply told “Floridaman” to do his own research, rather than asking you to do it for him. I don’t know how that’s “creepy” and “weird”. Apologies for the initial confusion. That was my fault. But you took that to a deeply personal place, and resorted to ad hominem attacks on my character, very quickly. I didn’t say anything else to “Floridaman” except that I thought he was a troll, so that sort of came out of nowhere.

Dana's still finding a way to work in Republican talking points even during this interview. "It wasn't our responsibility to moderate, Joe Biden should have been the one to step in and correct Trump." "Joe Biden had some falsehoods, like how many soldiers were killed during the withdrawal in Afghanistan." It's getting tedious watching podcasters bring on Republicans in an attempt to provide balance and then Republicans just take the chance to present bad faith arguments and lies as facts and valid criticism.

She said we decided to go with the traditional model…. Well, that was the wrong call. These are not normal political times, and you can’t just let Trump run on and tell a dozen lies in a minute and treat it like it’s just a normal debate, which is exactly what you did. When Trump tells his first lie of this next debate, you need to stop it immediately and inform him that if he wants to continue with the debate, and he must tell the truth. If he wishes to continue lying, the debate is automatically canceled and we will try another time . We normalize the psycho Don’s behavior when we put him on a format like a formal debate stage and expect him to act like a decent human being for 90 minutes.
