It's late in the month and that means it's time for another run through the zeitgeist with America's most crotchety culture critics. On this outing, they praise (well, mostly) Netflix's 3 Body Problem, DC apartments vs. NYC apartments, marvel at that time when Al Pacino worked at Commentary (and his unique appearance at this year's Oscars), the films of Christopher Nolan, the fall of Sam Bankman-Fried, and trigger warning: the Trump Bible and Ronna McDaniel's brief but very strange tenure at NBC.

Maybe people want to support Trump, and they enjoy getting maybe something kinda kitschy for it? See also: golden tennis shoes.
Or is that only acceptable when Ricochet offers a Peter Robinson book for a Reagan membership?

A quick note: The Three Body Problem was done as a movie in China. They didn't include the Cultural Revolution scenes according to a friend that has seen it.

Why doesn't JPod ever talk to an intelligent RT?

The weird part of these guys is that for them it’s all about Trump’s words, not Trump’s deeds. I guess it’s because verbiage is all they produce.
That the world was relatively peaceful under Trump is simply unimportant to them. Perhaps they regard it as no more than an amazing cluster of coincidences or accidents.
It’s like when a different generation of political pundits dismissed Ronald Reagan’s achievements as “Irish luck”. Everything he did in relation to the Soviet Union was wrong, the pundits agreed, and then the Soviet Union mysteriously collapsed of its own accord.
Rather than admit they were wrong, the GLoPers prefer to consign 74 million people to a “personality cult”. More than 74 million, this time, if the polls are any guide.

and yet, they did not get as worked up about Biden's words and deeds.
Biden is a braggart, a demagogue and liar, all the things they complain about Trump, plus his energy, border, monetary policies his canceling of student debt are all things that would have gotten their ire does not seem to register.
Also, they ignore all of the shadiness of "Biden Inc".
