Why Troubling News:

The bias in this Politico article is clear and the piece portrays more right wing politicians as the but of a joke. That joke being that no matter how hard they try to emulate Donald Trump's manner of speaking or humor, they fall off short and as a result don't look good to voter. The article points to multiple figure such as JD Vance, Blake Masters and Donald Trump Jr. as examples and seems more interested in making fun of them more than anything. Now this kind of content may have its place on a talk show or some other entertainment outlet, but for a news paper to do it doesn't seem appropriate. Their job is to report not jest. What would've been more constructive would have possibly been a more in depth analysis of how politicians try to mimic each others speech, talking style or rhetoric to gain support rather than just making fun of them.
