The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Why is it that the NYT opinion editors asked Biden to drop out after a bad debate performance, but they didn't ask Trump to drop out after he was convicted of 34 felonies?

Because Trump's not going to listen to him or care what they say, and Biden might. The same reason why the U.S. is trying to influence the Israeli government more than they're trying to influence Hamas in order to get an end to hostilities.

So the NYT says that no one should vote for Trump because he shouldn't be President, but asks Biden to drop out because he can't effectively do the job of being a candidate any more.
