Also, check out the framing. “Elites.” It’s actually the opposite. The tiny handful of American politicians who actually stand with working people (Bernie, Elizabeth Warren, AOC… IDK if any others exist, honestly) are saying Biden should stay. It’s the big donors and like 3 congresspeople I’ve never heard of and the media who are DEMANDING that he has to drop out and be replaced, coincidentally (I am sure) with someone who won’t raise taxes on the rich quite so much and use the money to raise working-class wages.
And yet, it’s always the “elites” who are pushing stuff they don’t want you to support. If it was something they wanted you to support, the media would be finding some other word to use that made the people pushing it sound knowledgeable, savvy, authoritative, and sympathetic.
