What has happened in the last few weeks? The Democrats are making good decisions? A series of them? Is this HOPE? Based on the reaction to Harris in the game–and now her VP pick of Walz, a national treasure I didn’t know existed until a week ago–I think it might be.
Plus, the Midwest Dad jokes were fantastic yesterday:
As were the vibes!
(that is not really an exaggeration! wtf is this shit!)
Finally, Jenn Romolini wrote about hope even before we got America’s Dad on the ticket:
I am not only deep-in-my-bones tired of Trump and his horrifying bullshit, I am genuinely excited to imagine Harris — a tough, smart, energetic female candidate — running game against these pasty, out-of-touch pricks.
[…] I do not want to hear America is not ready for a Black female president. I don’t want any Debbie Downer-opining that this country will never elect a woman to the highest office in the land. In 2016, Hillary won the popular vote by THREE MILLION VOTES — we basically already did! I don’t want to hear that we cannot before we even actually try. There are more of us than there are of them. I want us to remember this.
