I honestly think that Tressie McMillan Cottom (who has a semi-regular oped spot at the NYT) is a chaos agent.
And no, it's not just cuz she once sicc'ed her Twitter peeps on me cuz I DARED to contradict her re The Eagles and "The Big Lebowski." And that I was then and remain "a white boy."
More that she seems to take MAGA positions on Momala with some amount of frequency...as she is doing right now in the live NYT oped chat.
Hmmmmm.
Suspicious...
No link cuz she doesn't deserve one.
One example --
Who is this, Jill Stein?
Maybe Megyn Kelly or Tulsi?
Nope.
Tressie "Big Lebowski" McM C.
"People are angry about the unaddressed and unsustainable fundamentals of the American economy. Trump has a better story about that. Harris made some inroads on a better Democratic story, but it’s not perfect yet. Maybe a regular campaign season would have refined it."

It's not perfect yet? What the actual fuck is wrong with her? I can't, I'm at a loss for words here. Maybe I should just go lay down

"I remain surprised — shocked, even — by how many people are nostalgic about Trump’s term in office. You would think that his disastrous stewardship of the Covid crisis would have stuck in people’s minds, along with so many other dark moments. Is it really possible so many people forgot what the country went through, just because they miss lower grocery prices? I’ll never get it."
