Trump should have lost in a landslide. The fact that he didn’t speaks volumes
In the lead-up to the 2020 election, Democrats were extremely confident in Joe Biden’s prospects.

Sydney Ember’s Secret Sources
NYT reporter hides corporate ties of Sanders critics she highlights. Ember is supposed to write reported articles, not op-eds, but she consistently paints a negative picture of Sanders’ temperament, history, policies and/or political prospects in the over two dozen pieces she’s done on him.
