— Trump has been president for a term. During that time, 1 million Americans died, the largest amount in peace time the country has ever seen. It's like we forgot when one 9/11-worth of people were dying every day, in our country.

— Biden has orchestrated all the policies that have dug us out of that ditch. In addition, he has presided other the most productive reform era since Lyndon Johnson, and arguably since FDR, that included multiple infrastructure and industrial policy investments that Trump has always claimed to be able to do, but never delivered.
Yet, journalists have never given Joe Biden an ounce of the coverage that Donald Trump has ever received until now — and now that they are finally putting him in the headline, it's for some ridiculous shit.
I appreciate your creativity, but we must acknowledge, at some point, that our problems have a lot to do with the attention-deficit disorder of the people reporting and purporting to comment on events.
I will go further and say: Biden has governed as a perfect President, being the tip of the power, and letting his power and money (through laws from Congress) flow to other politicians and States. He doesn't get covered much because he empowers the rest of the country. Donald Trump makes everything about himself.
The latter is the more attractive story, in other words, the media has a strong-man bias, and it needs to understand that. The media likes a story where a Strong Person commands the attention and Orders People Around.
Lol, so you're implying that a reporter might fall asleep before Joe does? I have to admit, I hadn't considered that angle.
.
But don't forget that Biden purposely ran as the soporific, near-invisible candidate four years ago, and it worked. Trump was the perfect foil. Now, not so much.
Plus, no good deed goes unpunished. Churchill was kicked out of office in 1945 for leading Britain to victory over Hitler.
And, as you know, no news is good news. The media always prefers conflict and drama to a quiet day at the office.
But that still leaves Biden as a conductor badly in need of an orchestra.
Seth, I respect and appreciate your creativity.
Journalists are operating on a broken model:

Trump fell asleep at the convention today. Since we are mentioning sleeping candidates.
The real question is which *voters* will be asleep in four months, and why.
