The estrangement of young voters provides the most urgent evidence of all that Team Biden and its party need to remind voters aggressively about Trump’s full-spectrum unfitness for another term in the White House.

Aside from his deeply reactionary position on abortion and other cultural issues, and his savage attitude toward immigrants, Trump’s economic-policy history shows him prioritizing tax cuts for higher earners and exhibiting hostility to student-loan-debt relief (which he has called “very unfair to the millions and millions of people who paid their debt through hard work and diligence”).

Smoking out the 45th president on what “Trumponomics” might mean for young and nonwhite Americans should become at least as central to the Biden reelection strategy as improving the reputation of “Bidenomics.”

And without question, Democrats who may be divided on the Israel-Hamas war should stop fighting each other long enough to make it clear that Republicans (including Trump) would lead cheers for the permanent Israeli occupation of Gaza and the West Bank while agitating for war with Iran.

There’s no world in which Donald Trump should be the preferred presidential candidate of young voters. But it will require some serious work by Team Biden not only to turn these voters against the embodiment of their worst nightmares but to get them involved in the effort to keep him away from the power he would abuse.

I’m a sucker for Christmas lights, and the weather is great today, so naturally I had to visit the first night of the Festival of Lights at Van Duden Garden! 😁

I considered getting a new phone today, with the stupid sales and all. My Pixel 4A is 3 years old and it developed a column of dead pixels a few weeks ago. I've already replaced its screen once, so it feels like its time.

Cue me realizing that smallish phones are, yet again, extinct.

Why does the phone industry have to through this giant phone crap all the time???

The one somewhat small phone (yet still bigger than the 4A) is the Asus Zenfone 10 and it's ridiculously expensive

People should be protected in prison and treated like human beings regardless of their crimes, but also, fuck Derek Chauvin
