Opinion | ‘Joy’ Is Working for Harris, but Can It Close the Deal? - The New York Times

By Charles M. Blow

It must be awesome to be a NYT columnist. You brain shart out any old shitpost every couple weeks to build your brand, go on MSNBC to build your brand, appear in other media (podcasts?) to build your brand, write a book to capitalize on your brand. Repeat.

Honestly, if she offered enough Treats™ (or even just diverted a fraction of the wealth US elites hoard to the masses) she would probably get carte blanche to do anything overseas or even domestically to smaller groups, than she could ever want from the majority. (I might not be very optimistic on settler and even broader assimilated-Anglo society and culture). Yet thankfully they can't fathom doing that either, they have to have their cake and eat it too.
