All comforting or hopeful fantasies of bringing Trump to justice on the debate stage — even for just a moment — must be abandoned immediately because they harm our collective judgment as a diverse coalition. We're after a bigger whale: the entire Republican party.#BlueTsunami2020
This is the most devastating debate take-down of Donald Trump from any Democrat that has even the slightest plausibility to happen in real life:
1. Trump rants nonsensically, probably about his penis or his IQ
2. Biden makes a dismissive noise or a facial expression
or maybe genuinely sarcastic disbelief...
3. Trump expresses mild but visible annoyance.
No amount of electoral strength is worth sacrificing in the hope this encounter can become any more enjoyable to watch than the exchange above. Enjoy the fantasy of this exchange for a few minutes. Then move on and never look back. #BlueTsunami2020

OK...so now that Donald Trump has expressly refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power should he lose the election to Joe Biden (𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭), some things now need to be said very clearly.
(thread)
1 First of all, when the sitting US President (chief of the entire military) threatens to not leave office 𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘺 should we vote him out, we're not talking abt a scathing editorial in the NY Times here.
It means people are going to die. 𝘏𝘪𝘴 𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘦𝘴. 𝙐𝙨.
2 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲. I assert this truth not bc of wishful thinking, personal jealousy, nor junkie desire for another hit off the ORANGE MAN BAD pipe.
Far from being "intoxicated with liberal outrage", I have never been more sober in my life.

I’ll just say this for posterity, it won’t be a popular opinion today but there’s no ambiguity here:

I expect @JoeBiden will pick @GovMLG for VP.

1) I’ll be *SURPRISED* if he doesn’t pick her, but
2) I’ll be *DISAPPOINTED IN HIM* if he picks @KamalaHarris.

[Final 7.30.20]
The ultimate strategic electoral contrast between these two:

@GovMLG: “woman of color” to voters who care about that kind of thing; “white woman” to those who don’t.

@KamalaHarris: “woman of color” to voters who don’t care she’s not white; “black woman” to those who do. ImageImage
Part 3 — I will even go a step further:
I expect that IF @JoeBiden selects a black woman for VP, it WILL be @AmbassadorRice.

I’m excited to see in about a week whether these predictions held up, stay tuned! Image

If you’re wearing a mask in public to avoid catching #COVID, your NOSE is more important to cover than your closed mouth if your mask doesn’t cover both.
Obviously, what you should do is get a better mask, but your nose is a hole that is always open. Your mouth has a natural shield that closes, called your lips.
I mean, it’s nice that you’re considerate enough to cover your mouth to show others you don’t want to spread it, but if you really want to avoid contracting it, cover all parts of your face that suck in air.

And now...a VP pitch you haven’t heard before!!
NM Gov Michelle Lujan Grisham would be a very capable & competent chief exec & partner to @JoeBiden. She’d reflect our ethnic/gender diversity as modern Dems & Americans. ... Image
Gov. Lujan Grisham has a demonstrated ability to speak to the entire political spectrum (i.e. all the way from the liberal socialist Dems to conservative anti-Trump Repubs).

She’s a trusted, catastrophe-tested, battle hardened, just plain likable leader of diverse Americans. Image
And most importantly, Gov. Lujan Grisham’s broad appeal, soothing charm, and political skill provides us the real chance to retain the White House & just as importantly, DEFEND THE FRAGILE SENATE MAJORITY THAT WILL ALLOW US TO REMAKE THE ENTIRE FEDERAL JUDICIARY.

I used to think of myself as a strong liberal. But reality is not like that. Now I’m something else.
[thread]
2/ That’s based on what general policy outcomes I would consider ideal if we had unlimited support and resources. In a better world I would have supported Bernie Sanders.
3/ The more time I spent on “liberal” news sites, the more I came to realize that preaching for progress was meaningless if you refused to help actually get anything done.
If outrage was your goal, progress was not.

(thread)There’s clearly a big push at the moment to properly acknowledge people of color in entertainment being passed over for white actors.
I understand the need for characters like Apu (Simpsons) to be retired or recast, as they are, at kindest, a caricature of a race...
but please let’s think about how unhelpful decisions like Kristen Bell’s are, to drop from a production like “Central Park” already a season in, because she is white, voicing a biracial character.
Cynical explanations aside, how is it helpful or inclusive to viewers to say it’s not ok for someone who is (presumably) 95%+ white to earnestly voice a character who is by design approximately 50% white? The character is not Apu. It’s a normal girl, living in New York.
