I don’t post here very often anymore because the conversation is so warped, rude, distorted and angry all the time that it feels pointless to me. Fight like hell at the ballot box against policies you disagree with - that’s America. Speak up. But the culture of constant keyboard warrior nastiness is making us worse, not better.

There could not be a more apt metaphor for why outsourcing your field operation is crazy risky than Elon Musk 48 hours from the election getting distracted by a squirrel

Tucker Carlson in GA describes a Trump win as “daddy coming home” Like a “daddy” Trump “loves all his children” Carlson says, but he’s going to tell Dems and the media “you’ve been a bad girl, and you need a spanking”

If your response to Gen John Kelly, gold star father & Trump’s WH chief of staff, confirming that Trump praised Hitler & called members of our military “suckers and losers” is to defend Trump, you need to look in the mirror and realize your dishonor will live forever.

VP Harris did a lot very well last night, but one of the ways she helped herself the most was by looking strong and, crucially, making Trump look weak. She ate away at one of the advantages he has had in this race - the perception that he’s strong. Last night he was defensive and weak and engaging on her terms.
"She didn't overpower him. She played it safe, she played it scripted. But what she did do was she chummed the waters and he took the bait over and over again," @mattgorman says of last night's debate. All the takeaways w/ @kasie @mckkinnon @mattgorman @KBeds @elliotcwilliams

Kamala Harris weaponized Trump against himself more effectively than we have seen anyone do since he came on the national scene. Savvy and impressive performance in every way.

It is a *little* weird that "age concerns" have disappeared as a constant focus of campaign reporting and discussion even though the GOP nominee would be the oldest man ever sworn in to the office and is very obviously sharply declining before our eyes.

She met the moment. She told us her story and she told us what she believes the story of our next four years together can be. It was optimistic, unifying, substantive and expansive. And yet just sounded, in the end, like common sense. Persuasive, powerful and patriotic.
