Imagine for a moment Kamala won and did this but for a Kendrick Lamar concert or even a Taylor Swift show... the yelling from the right would be deafening

Everything great artists predicting and warned us about the last 50 years somehow didn’t prepare us now that’s is actually happenin. Saw your interview about the DC series you tried to write. Back to the drawing board again!

I don’t ever want to hear another right winger use the phrase “the dignity of the office” again. But of course they will.

Strictly speaking he wasn't a second-tier carnival barker. He was a sleazy game show host.

I have a feeling the crowd isn't going to be *quite* that big except maybe in his dreams.
