Chief Purser on the #LoveBoat. Or, I could just be a recovering hotel manager turned PhD that posts about hospitality, politics & life. #BidenHarris #HarrisWalz

@AceElections My first political was my christening, where there is a photo of baby me wearing a campaign button for my uncle who was running for fire commissioner. My first paid gig was at 5 years old passing out buttons on a busy street for a city council and mayoral. I think i got $5!

@masgvir @jonfavs @AJentleson He’s not senile - he’s been stuttering since he was 3. Sorry, try again!

It took a humiliating military defeat, crushing sanctions, and a historic economic collapse to turn Germany fascist. All it took in the United States was the election of one Black president.

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

You know, in all of the postmortems, the media & the party refuse to take responsibility for its own role in pushing @JoeBiden from the ticket & handing Trump the presidency. It’s every excuse but “maybe we shouldn’t have treated one bad debate like it was the end of the world”.

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

Gee, maybe forcing @JoeBiden off the ticket wasn't such a good idea - considering he'd have likely won PA and WI. This was completely avoidable, and completely predictable. He wasn't perfect, but he was a winner against Trump. #election2024

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

I'm wondering if the short vote totals from Gwinett in GA are keeping the @nytimes #Needle in the Trump column and once that vote drops, we'll see that swing a bit more #Election2024

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

@marshallw @RyanDeto @brianbeutler At this rate, she's outperforming Biden by 10 points, so yes.

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

Can they fucking win without bomb threats? The @GOP is the greatest threat to our democracy. They are the damned enemy within. #electionday2024

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

Anyone else happy to say "Former US Senator Joe Fucking Manchin:? #Election2024

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

I'm actually finding myself missing the fucking @NYTNeedle - what does that say about me? #Election2024

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

GA's early vote is good news - Trump is performing his 2020 in his counties, but @KamalaHarris is over performing her counties! Holy shit this data is unreal! #Election2024

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

Eff yeah, Hamilton County! #Election2024

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

I think it'll go one of two ways, but either way, let's do better than this tonight! #HarrisWalz

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

@ShawnInArizona Shitting myself, but ya know, comme ci, comme ça...

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

@AJDelgado13 She needs to move to PA between now and Election Day. That’s the ballgame.

[Gopher Smith @GopherSmith]

@MeghanMcCain Nope. I’d rather remember that he took a corrupt moron, elevated her to the National stage and nearly allowed that to be next in line to the most powerful person in the world. He wasn’t a patriot- he was simply a politician.
