Good to read some actual serious, positive analysis. At the end of the day, may the best present man id president man.

I love Jon Biden as much as the next guy but I think Rob’s on a centrist nightmare tip here

He’s a comedian, right? Think he’s reeled you in there!

Not sure which of us has been reeled in :smiley:

Hang on. Surely his “I’m not really into politics…” bit (and the ‘hats off/brave’ bit, too) is a flag that he’s joking here? Isn’t he quite publically a self-declared democratic socialist, with an extensive string of pro-Sanders and pro-Corbyn stuff to his name as well. (Wikicheck: yup.)

I was presuming that Heidecker’s response was him being snared into an earnest reply to an obvious joke by Delaney. And that @wikihock was flagging how Heidecker had fallen for the bait.

Think it’s a 6pm KO on the west coast and seeing as it’s a gosh darn 80 degree day we’ll be at the beach. Probably just watch a bit of CNN whilst making dinner, no way I could sit through it without clawing my eyes out.

anyone legit staying up for this charade?

GUYS SERIOUSLY

I’m pretty sure Tim (I’m on first name terms) is in on it too.

Tim Heidecker is veeeeeeery politically active, and funny and good and dead-pan.

Aye. On looking him up, he’s publically demsoc too, apparently.

What jolly japery we’ve all had.

Gah. I missed the ‘Jon’ Biden bit.

I kinda know TH by name, but not by his hings and whatnot.

How ironic! Reeled by the very person who was (not actually) trying to reel you in!

Think he’s been on Chapo Trap House a couple of times, so this particular brand of “centrist melt” tweets is very much in that vein…

Also he has an album, apparently? And it’s… fine? and not a joke, I don’t think? Unless it’s sufficiently deadpan that he recorded a quite normal Laurel Canyon/Harry Nilsson-esque record as a joke that I don’t understand, but at some point, a record’s just a record.

Who will do the biggest line before the debate tonight

Everyone got their popcorn ready?

I’m off to the beach in twenty minutes for some paddle boarding. I’ve been at the dmv all afternoon. I don’t think my brain can take any more nonsense tbh. I’ll catch the highlights later. Might just read this thread tbh :slight_smile:

Oh dear just being at the DMV all afternoon is enough to drive a man insane, god speed.
