I watched the State of the Union speech tonight on PBS — I’m not sure I’ve ever watched one from beginning to end before. I watch hardly any television. But there’s been an infuriating recent trend of the New York Times, and other leading “legacy media“ outlets, to display an apparent determination to amplify the Republican / Fox News propaganda that Biden is a doddering, senile old man, reminiscent of the tremulous, pathetic disgraced pharmacist Mr. Gower from It’s a Wonderful Life when he walks into Nick’s bar seeking handouts, only to be ridiculed and splashed in the face with soda water by the bartender, as the jeering patrons laugh and he’s tossed out in the snow.

Great essay, and I couldn't agree more. Thank you for sharing....
