I'm doing a write up for @nytimes along with colleagues of tonight's #RNC2020. We have 50 words for each section: "Best" and "Worst" Moment. This will be cut/trimmed when it's published, so I'm posting it in full below. This is my submission for the "Best" Moment.

I can't pretend what we witnessed during the 2nd night of the #RNCConvention2020 was in any way normal, routine, or healthy for this nation. I refuse to judge it by a lower standard, rank a "best" moment bc that's what's been asked of me, or choose a "least horrible moment...2/
...from a night of gaslighting, falsehoods and fearmongering. I think this only normalizes vulgarity, dysfunction and harms this country. I can't do it. But, because I'm charitable, at least I didn't laugh out loud this time. 3/3
Correction: I laughed out loud once, during Melania's speech. 4/4
