Race is close because the news media has a vested interest in it being close, so they are very selective to not report on anything that could crush trump out of the running. because contention and conflict drives viewership and ratings. So does another Trump presidency, and the media has dropped all pretense on who their preferential candidate is for that reason.
Which is why they spent a month harping on the mass hallucination of Bidens supposed mental incompetence, yet havent done so much as very briskly brush by the same topic on trumps very obvious, very public, very recorded decline. or his increasingly nazi-like rhetoric. or him doing anything that would have anyone else out of the race if it was reported on properly
Or because most major news outlets are owned by the billionaires that want those sweet sweet trump tax cuts?
Fox News is the preferred station by older republican audiences. They're also the most consistently voting. So all the propaganda they push gets swallowed due to the lack of journalistic integrity.
