So when are we going to acknowledge that Trump is a 78-year-old kindergartener who is terrified outside his safe spaces? Anyone who believes he’s an alpha male isn’t paying any attention at all.

In all my years, and there are a lot of those (I’m a Boomer), I’ve never seen anyone or anything damage our country like Trump and his followers have. Who agrees? (And if you don’t agree, I’d love for you to share why not.)

The good old distraction play. When there is nothing to be said. What else have you got?
I think it's hilarious that the best Republicans have come up with on Tim Walz are things like, "He retired after he served for 24 years", "He was a voluntary assistant coach", "His online recipes aren't that good", "He doesn't trade stocks like other politicians", "He pets other people's dogs at dog parks".
Can they hear themselves? Are they trying to make us like him more? Do they realize they are doing his campaigning for him? 😆

I grew up in a middle-class household. For most of my childhood, we were renters.
My mother saved for well over a decade to buy a home. I was a teenager when the day finally came—and I can still remember how excited she was.
In college, I worked at McDonald’s to earn spending money. Some of the people I worked with were raising families on that paycheck. They worked second or even third jobs to pay rent and buy food.
That only gets harder when the cost of living goes up.
When I am elected President, I will make it a top priority to bring down costs and increase economic security for all Americans.

Formerly enslaved, Anna Julia Cooper earned an MA in mathematics & a PhD from the Sorbonne. Her 1892 book championed women’s rights.
“The cause of freedom is not the cause of a race or a sect, a party or a class, it is the cause of human kind, the very birthright of humanity.”
Those badass suffragists!
On Feb. 3, 1913, a band of hardy hikers reached Princeton, NJ, on their way to the March 3 suffrage parade in DC. University students cheered and jeered them, and one fell in love. It was quite a night! Read about it: princetonianamuseum.org/arti… @NYRBooks @WWNortonLibrary @Princeton
