I was critical of Democrats in 2016 for whining after Trump’s win.

I am critical today of Republicans for whining after Trump’s defeat.
If you opposed Democratic ugliness in 2016, you need to oppose Republican ugliness today.
As @JakeTapper just mentioned:
The President could stop this with just one tweet, but he’s choosing not to.
These are the same people who wave #BackTheBlue flags.
Outside, the crowd has become hostile toward law enforcement.

Kids, watch this video on mute.
Donald Trump needs to tell his supporters to back off and stand down.

I can’t believe this is America.
Trump doesn’t mind lawless disorder when it’s done in his name.
This sign aged poorly.

Both Loeffler and Perdue can win tomorrow’s #Georgia Senate runoffs.

But it’ll require good GOP turnout and minimal meddling from Lin Wood.
Right now in #Georgia, there are election signs everywhere – I’m seeing about 10 Democratic signs for every GOP sign.

Of course, as we saw in November, signs don’t vote. Image
It’s like New Hampshire down here. #Georgia Image

There are 40,000 people arriving in Dubai for their annual @GITEXTechWeek technology conference.

Dubai is becoming the Silicon Valley of the Middle East — except it’s live and in-person.
For the first time at #GITEX2020, Israel is welcome.

I hear Hebrew spoken throughout all the hotels, talking about clean energy, food security, ending poverty. Israelis and Arabs sitting together, working together, solving problems together.

It’s the sound of peace. Image
Israeli companies appearing at Dubai’s #GITEX2020 for the first time ever.

The governments may have had their differences in the past, but the people here are talking like old friends. It’s all so joyful. ImageImageImage

I’m back in Pennsylvania. This time for a Kamala Harris rally in Philadelphia.

One carload of people I interviewed were pleasantly surprised to learn that @JohnLegend will be performing tonight.
These drive-thru interviews are much easier to do now that I’m no longer fat.

The people in this Jeep said they support Joe Biden “because he will unite the country and is prepared to not work with only Democrats.”
First car was full of Elizabeth Warren primary voters who now say they’re enthusiastic to vote for anyone who gets Trump out of office.

Second car included a 13-year-old with a simple message: “We need more love, less hate.”

Here’s a front yard in rural Exton, Pennsylvania.

This was Trump County in 2016. Today, the lawn signs are about 50-50. Image

My focus group’s words to describe Trump tonight:
• “Controlled”
• “Reserved”
• “Poised”
• “Con artist”
• “Surprisingly presidential”

Words to describe Biden tonight:
• “Vague”
• “Unspecific”
• “Elusive”
• “Defensive”
• “Grandfatherly”

👉🏻
“People running for office have to tell you what they plan to do and how they’re going to do it.

I thought Joe Biden would tell us tonight, but there was nothing there.” #Debates2020

👉🏻
Washington Post reporter @MFFisher asks my group of undecideds about character.

Similarly as before, they say Joe Biden is a more decent person, but they side more with Trump’s policies and how they affect their daily lives.

A very smart opening by Biden saying “if you remember nothing else, remember this…”

That’s a great debate technique. #Debates2020
Great Biden line: “He says we’re learning to live it it? We’re learning to die with it.”

Very powerful. #Debates2020
Another great Biden line: “I’m going to shut down the virus, not shut down the country.”

However, my group is already complaining that Biden has great words but no solutions. #Debates2020
