@GovTimWalz OMG. Kamala, here's your running mate. The man is so relatable, so real, so like your favorite uncle. You can hear the pin drop when he speaks. Although I'm completely a Josh guy, I have to say Tim is it. You can't go wrong with Tim, Kamala.

@Johnny_Cage10 @TimRyan Jonathan, in all honesty, your thinking here is similar to what a lot of Democrats said in 2016 about Hillary. Something like: "I'm not voting for her because she's not likable enough." Today we know where that thinking took this country. Please, vote for @TimRyan .

@utdshows @gtconway3d OK, he voted for him in 2016. But since then he's become a one-man demolition squad against Trump, becoming even more effective at that than any one I know, and at the expense of his marriage which has since unraveled on account of that. What else do you want, @utdshows ?

@newrepublic @EllieHotel_ing Mitch McConnell is a coward and a disgrace. The first sentence of his obituary will be: "He was a man who had the power to liberate and save the Republican Party and his country from Trump by voting to convict him, but chose, out of his own cowardice, to let him off the hook."

@MalcolmNance Trump's victory is exactly what these pro-Palestinian protesters want. It's painful to think many of them do not even consider the possibility of Trump deporting them -- regardless of their American citizenship -- and making the Palestinian cause infinitely more difficult.
