Yes!

But not in writing! 😇

I’ll be the one behind the scenes, pulling the strings, Cheney style.

Heaven help me! That’s way too much drama for me.

Maybe just have me pen the platform.

It’s like the campaign just crossed out Biden’s name off of stuff that they wrote for Trump that he never got to use.

Be glad you got to read it before Kamala could censor him! 🙄

So are we voting for Vance or Walz???

As someone near Appalachia, I would expect that to be the response. 😁

You’ll still be able to buy Hillbilly Elegy and that book Melania wrote that her husband didn’t bother to read.

We’ll induce more people into child care!

(Aunt Lydia has entered the chat)

We’ll have tremendous healthcare, and I’ll make China pay for it!

One of my MAGA-in-laws is in the hospital for a week with a huge sudden medical emergency. (They’re fine now, in recovery)

I’m curious to see if once those bills come in if they start feeling different about healthcare coverage.

But we need to get them out so American citizens can be stuck in the open air encampments on the federal land for not reproducing enough! 😆

It’s very true. Now it’s their other branch, the ILA, I believe it is, which is their legal lobbying branch, that is the core of the organization.

No kids here, but I have many nieces and nephews, and it makes me so depressed to think of a school run like a police state.

I was hoping for a bit more also. JD is definitely coming off more organized. He’s still full of it and dodging a number of things, but he’s much more comfortable than Walz.

I agree. I wasn’t happy they weren’t going to fact check, but it’s going pretty well, moderation-wise.

Went looking for a different quote, but came upon these instead and liked them better:

“[T]he Party member […] tolerates present-day conditions because he has no standards of comparison. He must be cut off from the past, just as he must be cut off from foreign countries, because it is necessary for him to believe that he is better off than his ancestors and that the average level of material comfort is constantly rising.”

And when memory failed and written records were falsified—when that happened, the claim of the Party to have improved the conditions of human life had got to be accepted, because there did not exist, and never again could exist, any standard against which it could be tested.

From 1984 - Orwell

The fact checking of the last debate really made it stand out. It felt like the debate served an actual purpose as opposed to just hearing what amounted to a mini rally for the candidates.

This is a huge disappointment to me, as now there is no need to defend any of their comments. It’s basically just a campaign ad.

Very inspiring article, thank you for sharing!
