RETWEET to let the American people know what they voted for!
I need one final push to defeat Marjorie Taylor Greene.
She doesn't want people in Georgia to know that she's about to lose.

As we all await the outcome of what feels like a make-or-break election, I want to offer some perspective, if you’ll hand a fellow with eight-plus decades the mic for a moment.
BREAKING: Hundreds of Pennsylvanians have lined up hours early to hear Tim Walz speak. The media may not report it, but Americans are beyond enthusiastic to elect Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Retweet so all Americans, and especially the media, see this
In 2000, Al Gore “lost” Florida and with it, the presidency by 537 votes. I won my Senate seat by 312 votes. The battleground states will be decided by one or two votes per precinct. So volunteer! Phone bank! Door knock! Get out there for Kamala and Tim!!! #DNCConvention2024 https://t.co/WbRnkmzB6p
The greatest example in the last 100 years of making a mountain…out of a mole hill, is the idiocy that occurred…beginning while the debate was still underway. Today, I asked 19 people “Who are you voting for?” 19 times the answer was “President Biden.”
My followup question was “Do you have any concerns about him?” 16 said “No.”
One said, “Sure. At his age something could happen to his health at any time. But, that’s why we have a chain of command.”
One said, “Yes. You bet I am. I’m worried about what the Republicans are willing to do to take him out.”
One said, “Fuck no. Besides…does it really matter? We are down to crunch time, you know what I mean?! I mean…whether people like it or not, 2024 is between Biden and Trump, so what are you going to do, vote for the guy threatening everyone? Huh?! Biden need only win the election. After that, he can retire for all I care. Just win it, and then do what you want. Just beat Trump. Just beat Trump. That’s the only thing he has to do. Huh?! You know what I mean?!”
Yes…I intentionally came to where most people would say they were voting for President Biden. But, asking whether they were voting for him, was merely an entry point for the question I really wanted to know the answer to: “Do you have any concerns about him?”
I’m telling you…the voters I spoke to were NOT focused on “worrying” about Biden. They were focused on the threat Trump represents.
Don’t fall for any bullshit to the contrary. Tomorrow is a new day, and a new location…and I suspect the answers will be much the same.
As we prepare for the George Stephanopoulos Interview of Joe Biden on ABC, I think it's important to come to the realization that every misstep in speaking that Biden has will be placed under the microscope by the media.
Meanwhile Trump is free to parrot whatever lie and conspiracy theory he wants, misspeak, claim he ran against Obama, the election was stolen, that magnets don't work under water, that windmills cause cancer, or that he 100% eliminated ISIS.
Or how about this gem about nuclear weapons?
"Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you're a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible."
This is not Biden's fault, but it will mean that his candidacy is forever tainted and likely will not recover, unfortunately.
