In making it a contest of personalities and about unknowable private feelings, the article not just omits but distracts from what each candidate and their parties would do (and has done) with power.

When abortion rights are wildly popular with the voting public, this sort of coverage muddies the waters such that Biden's stance is made weaker and Trump's stronger.

That makes sense, and (i'm assuming) you're right, because I can't actually read the full article but it probably doesn't get into a whole lot of nuance about what the Ds and Rs have done for abortions rights in this country and how one of the two people is better for abortion rights. And maybe I picked a bad topic (abortion) to try to have this discussion about media coverage of two people in a two party political system especially in today's political climate.

I dunno... I'm still kind of processing the whole thought pattern.

ETA: And to be clear I'm not apologizing for Trump or what he's done to this country. He's a gigantic piece of shit. I think Biden is 1000 times better than Trump.
