Lmao, how on earth is the loss in faith in news organizations your justification for refusing to endorse a political candidate? It’s like he’s tone deaf as to why people are losing faith in news organizations.
“People no longer trust news organizations because we prop up this false dichotomy of both political sides being “equal” despite one side being clear and dangerous fascism. In order to try and gather faith in my news organization, I’m going to double down on this and refuse to acknowledge this problem.” What a joke.
The goal is to use the word coup often so that the word loses its punch, that way when an actual coup happens people will just shrug when it’s reported and think it’s just a minor occurrence.
