From personal experience, calling Tillis and Budd will do absolutely nothing, unfortunately.

Show it to them and ask whether it would’ve changed their minds, then report back. 🤷🏻♀️

Sounds like it. Although, I would be floored if even one of those people you know had never seen a clip of Trump mocking a disabled person, saying he could grab a woman by their pussy, saying that he could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Ave and no one would care, etc. 🤷🏻♀️

Find me one Trump voter who hasn’t seen examples of his hateful speech and decided that was acceptable. There is nothing complex or coded about Trump…he has always told everyone exactly who he is.

Or, your child could! And there’s a special kind of hell in having to fight for your child to be treated with basic human dignity. youtu.be/oRWpPwvTA3M?...

They didn’t vote for the typical Republican candidate. They voted for explicit, unabashed hate, revenge, greed. I don’t wish them extra harm, and I would’ve been fine with them experiencing benefits of a Harris administration, but they are bullies and have come by their consequences honestly.

My great grandmother lived in Wexford and immigrated to the US. Now my son, aged 9, is a Patrick! (And I am starting to consider a possible move back to Ireland. I am a research communication consultant and am very concerned about the Trump/Musk assault on US science funding.)

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Cold open with Tina Fey and real Sarah Palin. Amy Poehler in a bar with real Hillary Clinton as the bartender. Donald Trump does Wordle. Any comment that Jost/Che have made about a Mitch McConnell photo. Maya Rudolph as “fun aunt” Kamala in 2020. Cold open with Kamala in the mirror.

Canadians made such a good choice with Trudeau! ❤️ ~with love from someone who didn't vote for Trump or her state's useless senators but has to live with the consequences
