Sam Seder had the best response to the latest Biden black-folk gaffe

I heard poor and superficial spinning on Joe Biden's gaffe with Charlamagne Tha God on “The Breakfast Club” all day. I mostly remained unengaged on the issue until I was pleasantly surprised that Sam Seder, host of The Majority Report, took the appropriate and substantive take on what was actually missing from the context of the exchange.

Never underestimate their hay-making machine - it's big, noisy, and very well-funded.

We're lucky this is May 24th, rather than October 24th. Joe can't let this happen again though.

and might have been determinative in a different year with different circumstances. However, our main concern (imo) is to rid us of trump, so 'best' from a progressive point of view is not as significant as it would be otherwise.
