“Having a relationship with Israel doesn’t mean saying yes to everything all the time. That’s not what we’re trying to do. I believe Harris can stand up in a way that Trump wouldn’t.”
“My biggest fear is basically that the United States becomes rudderless and caters to division instead of governing.”
“Trump is the only president in the history of our country who didn’t allow a peaceful transfer of power and didn’t attend his successor’s inauguration. So how can you expect him to change?”
“I am kind of mortified that these are the two best candidates that are out there.”
“Trump’s main target was ‘establishment elites,’ not Biden.”
“I believe the vice president puts us in a much better position. You can feel the electricity in the air.”
“Nobody has that bad a night.”
“Obviously, there’s a lot going on, but I don’t think everybody’s particularly engaged right now.”
“We have spending that is essentially recession or depression-level spending, and neither administration has seemed willing to address those issues.”
“I think [both candidates are] lousy. I may not vote for president. I would not vote for Joe Biden. I also don’t think I can vote for Donald Trump.”
“Some of those very far-right-wing Christians really are imagining women in the United States having roughly the same rights as women in Afghanistan or Iran.”
