    If you want to know what contemporary racial bias looks like in a nutshell . . .

    Second experiment that we ran was on protests and race. Half the sample got "Americans" half got "Black Americans". Again, check the bottom rows. There's a big race gap here, and check the bottom rows for where it's widest. (Fox News Republicans making another appearance.)

    I am the Governor's Deputy Digital Director. I see everything that is said about and to her online. Every single time the President does this at a rally, the violent rhetoric towards her immediately escalates on social media. It has to stop. It just has to.

    The President mentions the Governor of Michigan, the crowd chants lock her up, and the President says lock them all up

    Presidential communication matters. Trump’s tone and words shape the public’s view of what is acceptable. Its called norm construction. Our norms are currently f’ed up.

    Adding "extreme" to the statement reverses the message.

    ...I do not tolerate ANY extreme violence. Defending ALL Americans, even those who oppose and attack me, is what I will always do as your President! Governor Whitmer—open up your state, open up your schools, and open up your churches!

    A democratic emergency.

    The most alarming thing about that debate: Pence joined Trump in not committing to a peaceful transfer of power should Biden win.

    I know virtually every political scientist who has worked on a decision desk for US networks in the last 4-5 cycles - have trained 1 or 2, been colleagues with 3 or 4 - they are experienced, led-by-data above all else & among our best social scientists.

    This is a disappointing op-ed from past-presidents. Before speaking from a position of gravitas, it would be more productive to reach out to the many political scientists who serve on media decision desks, who are well aware of the challenges

    Reminder: in many states/localities absentee ballots are counted on Election Day & voters are informed if issues arise. Check how local ballots are handled before feeling like you must vote in person in a pandemic.

    Incredibly dangerous. Politicizing this issue risks harming confidence in vaccines, one of the most successful public health interventions in human history, for his re-election.

    I think the biggest story of the night by far is Trump overruling the FDA scientists to rush a vaccine before the election
