    This is disgusting. Kamala Harris and her boss Joe Biden are attacking half of the country. There's no excuse for this. I hope Americans reject it. x.com/gabegutierrez/…

    AZ can't be recounted (Campaigns can't ask for recounts, and Biden's margin is too big for an automatic recount.) AZ gives Biden 270 EVs without PA & GA. In other words, all the litigation in PA & GA can't change the outcome.

    I'm seeing a lot of "cancel the debates" but the next debate is a town hall and Trump should absolutely be subjected to the questions of real voters.

    Democrats after losing by 2 points: Our brand is in ashes. We need a complete overhaul. Republicans after losing by 4.5 points: Let's run the same guy again.

    Senate Republicans have a 6-3 Supreme Court and still act like they've been treated unfairly in the nominations game. Just an amazing commitment to grievance politics.

    For someone oft-derided as past his prime, Biden going off-script and negotiating Social Security and Medicare on live TV is a uniquely agile SOTU moment

    So the anti-DNC protests were a bust and AOC lit up the conventional hall with a unifying speech effusively praising the Democratic nominee. This ain’t 2016.

    2016: Why didn't Hillary Clinton campaign in Wisconsin?! 2024: Why did Kamala Harris campaign in Wisconsin instead of going to a white tie dinner in New York City?!

    I guess you can’t be on a Democratic Presidential ticket and also a Jew in 2024.
