It would be much more surprising if he *did* say something appropriate in this setting.

He has very severe narcissistic personality disorder. Asking him to be empathic is like asking a snake to ride a bicycle.

This joke is almost too good coming from a copy editor…

No idea why you have to be coerced when your cat is that adorable.

I think about what’s happened to WaPo and I am so grateful that my local paper, the Inquirer, was bought by a non-profit foundation.

I don’t want AOC to be the leader of the Dem Caucus. That would indeed not work.

I just want her to knock Schumer out. She would be doing all of us a tremendous service.

LOL, um, no. Especially not in the current environment.

Yeah he needs to get his confidence and his groove back. He’s been out a long time.

You make very good points.

The upshot is that it’s very hard for us to know who would be a good leader for the Senate Dems because we don’t know the dynamics of the caucus.

That said, I still want AOC to primary him to make sure they get all the message that we will not accept capitulation.

You’re very brave to do exposure therapy on social media.

But also: you look great. And sheesh I don’t know how you do these poses!

He’s horrendous but senators get 6-year terms so there’s nothing we can do for the next 3 years except to locate and support his replacement.

Not sure it matters that much because if he did try to run he'd just get embarrassed in the primary.

I’ve always wondered where that came from…

What is rye gin?!
