Welcome, dear readers, to the final TDS column of this election cycle. There will be a lot of meltdowns until the contest is decided, of course, but I won't be writing any more installments until a winner is declared. If Kamala Harris wins, I will obviously need some time to damage my liver and then recover.
Should Donald Trump win, the TDS columns are practically going to be on auto-pilot until 2025.
I'm going to do something different for this one. As I have mentioned many times, I read the Opinion sections of The New York Times and The Washington Post every weekday so that the rest of conservative America doesn't have to. This column highlights a mere fraction of what I see on any given day.
In an effort to provide a birds-eye view of the mentally unwell hyperbole vomit that I witness, I'm just going to share Times and WaPo Opinion headlines from the last ten or so days. I'll link to each paper's Opinion section at the top, but not to the individual articles.
This is what the asylum looks like when you remove the roof and look at it from above.
