Allow me to introduce you to the most ridiculous yet amazing thing you will see this week.

@csilverandgold I'm a white man and I would be quite happy with her being the VP or POTUS.

@imbernomics @ikuziemko Over in Rockford (just north of Grand Rapids) there are definitely more Biden signs than there were Hillary signs four years ago, but Trump signs still dominate outside of incorporated areas.

I can't imagine not being nervous about this election. In fact, I think I'm terrified.

@Lollardfish @PeterAlexander Well, when you have other people putting out garbage stories like the following, I think it is important to tell people that, yes, irritating agents of some sort were indeed used against the protesters:

@Uptheleft I just took this picture of the dam in Rockford, Michigan. Water flow has basically doubled in the last five days.

@LouSasoll @FiveThirtyEight I agree. I don't really want to live in California, but if I were never allowed to leave a state ever again, then California would be much choice since no other state offers as many varied things places to explore or things to do.

@s_delhommer I still have all of my lecture notes not only from graduate school but also from my junior and senior years of undergrad. I even have a few textbooks from high school and my 7th grade history text.

Upon reflection, I think the thing I most have is a hoarding problem.

@causalinf If you ever make it up to Grand Rapids, I can take you to Founders Brewery. (It is within walking distance of my office and you can even see it from our department windows.) It can be a nice place to go after department seminars.

@sarahcpr Sarah Cooper, you are the hero that we knew we needed!

(In all honesty, there is no way that anyone can watch your video and still think that Trump is sane. Unfortunately, I still know people who like him, but I have quite enjoyed sharing your video with these people.)

[Dan Giedeman @DanGiedeman]

@Jeffrey_Baird @Claudia_Sahm No.

[Dan Giedeman @DanGiedeman]

@nelsonagholor This is a very classy response. Respect to both of you gentlemen.

@Singmaster3 @NateSilver538 What if they counter with acrophobia?

@KevinMKruse If the US signs a mutual defense agreement with Israel and then Israel launches a drone attack on Saudi Arabia, would the US go to war against itself?
