    I have a different opinion on this. I applaud for admitting this publicly. It will give those who haven’t been voting encouragement. The point is to expand the electorate, not shame folks — ESPECIALLY black men.

    It's early. But good signs in early vote numbers. AAPI, Black, Latinx, and Native American votes are up across the board. More encouraging, voters that sat out the 2016 Election are engaged (and early) in the 2020 Election.

  4. On this day, 11 years ago, our biggest worry at the Obama White House was blowback we might receive about the president winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Things are different these days.

  5. Made the mistake of responding to a Megyn Kelly tweet during the debate and now, more than 24 hours later, the bots are still fighting with each other in my comments. Let me be a lesson for all of you.

    It is worth noting that even though Kamala was repeatedly interrupted by Pence, she effectively stopped him from talking over her without ever complaining about the rules or looking to the moderator for help.

    I just think the world needs to know that ⁦⁩ used to be a model. This is his best blue steel.

    Flipping between the cables, surprised to see that the most yelling is on CNN.

    I love a lot of things about my friend James Carville - but right now, it’s the fact that he brought his hot pink USMC hoodie to MSNBC this evening.

    Hannity wearing the worst tie for tv I’ve ever seen. (Also his analysis is very bad.)

    Why is Rick Santorum on CNN?

    Pence closing by talking about the Mueller investigation shows the perils of needing to say things that please Trump and not actually trying to win votes

    Women in politics know too well the frustration of being talked over, condescended to, and held to impossible double standards. Even here in the Bay Area, I’ve experienced it. The poise of in the face of Pence’s disrespect is a profound inspiration

    There’s something about these commercial-less debates that makes them the perfect symbol for the Trump administration. It’s just relentless awfulness where some white guy jerk makes everything worse for an interminable amount of time.
