When you eat unsalted seaweed snacks you realize you never loved the seaweed at all. You love salt.

@franklinleonard Every time like clockwork. We pivot to the middle and win (Biden) it’s evidence we need to move right. We pivot to the middle and lose (Harris) and its evidence we need to move right again. Coincidentally the donors are rich and we’ve lost the working class. When do we go left?

You can accuse her and the campaign of a lot of things but calling it a woke leftypalooza damn sure ain’t one of them.

I don’t recall Kamala Harris once commenting on this issue. I do, however, have vague recollections of Liz Cheney’s endorsement being front and center of her campaign.

It’s like getting a cancer diagnosis, beating it and then 4 years later having a relapse but now it’s everywhere. Feels like all you can do is move into acceptance.

Bernie Sanders in 2003. Worth the watch.

It was naive to believe that if Kamala Harris avoided discussing her race and gender, that if she evaded so-called identity politics, that she would nullify the liability of being a Black woman seeking the presidency in a country where racism and misogyny are embedded in the culture. This is a country that responded to a multiracial electorate sending the first Black president to the White House with a *minority* of the white vote by electing an openly white racist man over the person who could have become the nation's first woman president.

@bqueener @RadioFreeTom They’re easily duped because both parties let them down — the gap never shrinks no matter who is in office, it just grows less fast.

@RadioFreeTom And then therefore vote against their actual self interests. Bizarro world.

@theashleyray I agree but doubt Biden woulda won, he was just profoundly unpopular and unable to advocate for his record.

@MattGertz That floating pile of garbage is the bus @TonyHinchcliffe was thrown under. These guys support a man that will sell them out on a dime. Dumbasses.

Trump: "Somebody put on a comedian and he joked, he mentioned Puerto Rico... I guess he said some joke, I haven't heard the joke, but he said some joke and he mentioned Puerto Rico... They made this one comedian telling one little joke early in the show, when nobody had even started going into the arena, practically... I have no idea who he is... he mentioned Puerto Rico and they made a big deal."

@KamalaHQ He sounds tired and weak.

Trump appears to be unraveling live on stage “When I say insane asylums, and then I say, Doctor Hannibal Lecter, does anybody know? They go crazy. They say, oh, he brings up these names out of— Well, that's genius. Right. Doctor Hannibal Lecter. There's nobody worse than him. Silence of the Lambs. Who the hell else would even remember that? I have a great memory, but they always hit me. I don't bring it up too much because they have to take such a— he brought up Hannibal Lecter. What does that have to do with this? What is it? It has everything to do with it, right? He was… So I've done something for you for you that I haven't done in 20 speeches. I brought up Doctor Hannibal Lecter and we're allowing him, you watch, you watch these fake people will say again, he brought up Hannibal Lecter has absolutely nothing to do. You know I do the weave, right? The weave. It's genius. You bring up Hannibal Lecter, you mention insane asylum. Hannibal Lecter. You go out, no. There'll be a time in life where the weave won't finish properly at the bottom and then we can talk. But right now it's pure genius. Hey, I have an uncle, my uncle, Uncle John, my father's brother, 41 years at MIT, longest serving professor has so many degrees, he didn't know what the hell to do with them all in the most complicated. I understand a lot of this stuff, you know, I believe in that. Like, I mean, Jack Nicklaus is not gonna produce a bad golfer. Right. You know, that's the way it works. It's just one of those things and it's in the family and it's whatever”

News flash: On Tuesday night, regardless of what the vote tallies say, Trump will declare victory.  He will claim the only reason he may lose is “vote stealing.” Undermining the legitimacy of an election is how demagogues destroy faith in democracy. Kamala for President.

Best ad I’ve seen.

@JohnSaponaro Cmon, guys. Bartman cost the Cubs the game (or at least that was the perception). Thats why he was vilified. Extremely dumb take.

"Garbage"?! Fox News is OUTRAGED by this hateful rhetoric from the president

Had this EXACT thought.

100k foot view of the WaPo situation: I suppose it’s possible that Bezos sincerely formed, in his private thoughts, the principle that presidential endorsements are bad, and the timing of this articulation ~just happened~ to coincide with this principle being *obviously* advantageous to his company Blue Origin. It’s … possible! But, as a general matter, if you come up with a personal principle at the very moment when that principle is most convenient, the price you pay for that convenience is that nobody will trust you. Nor should they. To make a ludicrous but I think sort of helpful comparison: My principle on kitchen hygiene is I don’t think my kitchen countertops need weekly scrubbing. That’s the sort of thing to make clear to my wife when the counters are clean. If I articulate this principle for the first time 0.5 seconds after my wife tells me to scrub the kitchen counters on a day when I'm kind of busy, *of course* she won’t believe me. She *should not* believe me. It would be sort of touchingly hilarious if she did! “We don’t endorse presidential candidates” is a defensible position. Coming up with that principle during the editing process for a Harris endorsement days before your company is scheduled to meet with Donald Trump is not a decision whose timing deserves anybody’s trust. And the media environment is too competitive for news organizations to carelessly set fire to their integrity without enormous consequences.

@RyanGirdusky I can’t go on live tv, racistly accuse my fellow panelist of being a terrorist and joke about his death, without blowback… WE USED TO BE A REAL NATION!!!

You can stay on CNN if you falsely call every Republican a Nazi and have taken money from Qatar-funded media. Apparently you can't go on CNN if you make a joke. I'm glad America gets to see what CNN stands for.

GO AWF Ana Navarro!!!!

Bernie gets it.

@notcapnamerica Not what you think of as a cover. It was written by a songwriter and released by another artist without gaining traction. Basically tried a second time with her.

This was a cover????
