I will not be able to attend the campaign rally tomorrow morning. I will be getting a rabies vaccine as a precaution after having been bitten by a bat near the start of this campaign tour! I have every intention of participating in the FLAME march and I will deliver remarks at...

following President Trump's address to the nation on immigration
I have zero problem with what Meghan McCain said and think under the circumstances she had the right to say any damn thing she wants. But it is silly to pretend Trump was not the intended target of some of her remarks.
I re-read all the speeches from McCain’s funeral. Nobody attacked Trump. They *praised* honor, decency, character, bipartisanship, and placing country over party. What does it say about Trump that so many people interpreted this as an assault on him personally?
I'm an immigration hawk and we do have to have a vetting system and be careful even with refugees. But we have a moral obligation to let in as many people who helped us in Afghanistan as possible rather than leaving them to be slaughtered.
@BecketAdams
There's an interview Reagan did near the end of his presidency with Brokaw, Jennings, Rather and Shaw, when there were dementia rumors and five years away from an actual Alzheimer's diagnosis, where he is way more articulate than Biden or Trump in any recent interview.
So how many grandmas have died since this tweet? Is it too much to expect any regrets, apologies?

And spare me the usual bad faith arguments and personal attacks ... (if you are capable of that)
Earlier today I was asked if I would have voted for Brett Kavanaugh. On reflection, my answer is whatever you would like it to be. Please let me rule you.
It's dangerous for anyone in MAGA world to assume Kanye West, a high-profile Trump supporter for several years who has most recently been talking about the evils of abortion, would necessarily take votes exclusively from Biden.
One thing Republicans should ponder heading into their own convention: Do they have anyone who can summon the gravity of the moment for many voters as well as Obama did?

Chuck Todd says in this podcast that a cabinet secretary told him two years ago that they barely interact with Biden and doubted he would be able to run for re-election

@PeteButtigieg
receives his first endorsement from a New Hampshire State Senator, Sen. Martha Hennessey.
Hennessey previously endorsed Sen. Cory Booker before he dropped out of the presidential race.
Gore conceded (permanently) on December 13, the day after the Supreme Court closed off his last legal avenue for contesting Florida before Electoral College safe harbor date. Let's see what Trump does if and when legal options are exhausted to truly make comparison.
Max Boot never even pretended to be especially socially conservative, Jen Rubin pretended some but not very convincingly. Bill Kristol devoted 30-plus years to the pro-life cause pre-Trump.
Bill Kristol changing his mind about Roe isn’t surprising, because he’s never had principles. What’s interesting is how many of you changed your minds to embrace Bill Kristol, and not 23 years ago, but just recently.
After Chappaquiddick, Ted Kennedy won 7 more statewide elections, garnering between 58 and 73%. He remained a nat'l star as well and his endorsement was among the most coveted in the 08 Dem race.
I go back and forth over whether he could endure politically if it happened today.
Acosta thinks he is courageously speaking truth to power, but he really plays the same role at Trump press conferences that Jeb! did in the GOP debates.
ben and clay work off logic rather than emotion. It’s much harder to make a living that way because truth is often inconvenient to your audience but living in your feels is incredibly easy.
that’s why rex steals dog videos for likes, while ben/clay deliver actual substance
