Democrats hold a super majority in the MA legislature and thus Warren's seat is perfectly safe. They have the power to dictate that her vacancy be filled by another Democrat, and they've changed the rules before to maintain power in moments just like this. When Kerry vacated his seat to run for President in 2004, MA Dems stripped then Governor Romney of the power to fill the seat. When Ted Kennedy died in 2009, MA Dems returned that power to the Democratic Governorship of Deval Patrick and Paul Kirk served until the special election.
But I highly doubt Warren gets the nod. The moment seems to call for Harris, for better or worse.
It's another blunder that will backfire and cost his campaign votes, so I'm taking this as great news. The more his authoritarianism is aired before the election, the more people will wake up. A TT ban will hit some people hard yet will engender no additionally support for him.
Sethi disappoints me- the guy has to be smarter than what he presented. There's a pathway for a far more principled Republican but it seems the party is moving further and further away from it. Every single Republican primary boils down to "I'm the true conservative in this race" or "I supported Donald Trump first". The entirety of Sethi's campaign was wrapped up in those two statements.
So another unenforceable garbage EO being signed only to feed his ego?
I don't know who current generation Kanye appeals to. He's gone full deep end prosperity gospel "church leader" and his recent music is mostly trash.
So your take is probably the most likely take honestly.
My conservative Texas parents literally said the same thing. "Hope he picks a good VP". If they don't have a problem with the VP, they'll find another excuse for not voting for Biden. They're not going to vote for him, they never would vote for him. Pro-choice is a straight up non-starter for them, but they hate Trump. I'm guessing they just won't vote for Prez and will vote down ticket R.
I'm not sure I'm clear on what this EO is banning specifically. What constitutes a "transaction"? Can people still download and use it, ByteDance just can't monetize them (directly)?
Pretty sure Trump doesn't have the ability or power to ban an independent business. Plus, you know, free speech and all that.
This is great news for the simple fact it probably makes Trump shit his pants. He can talk tough about how Covid will go away, but you know he is secretly terrified he will get it being a germaphobe. Now that he sees his little bubble testing isn't 100% accurate I wonder if he scurries back into the bunker? He is already paranoid, I hope this just makes him even more miserable.
Straight fire with an empathy chaser.

Add to that "most likely to make Pence flee the debate stage for his life"
Re Trump "banning TikTok in 45 days", I wonder what authority he has. Because this article I linked the other day suggests he has a lot of power to hurt it, but he can't ban it.

Trump Can’t Ban TikTok, but He Can Hurt It
Banning a free app is probably impossible, but U.S. authorities have a large toolbox.

pence did his best biden impression and just denied everything. i'd imagine harris would have receipts.
Pence is going to have to spend almost the whole time playing defense on Trump's actual awful record, which a majority of voters already disapprove of. It is pretty different terrain for him to fight on than last time. I am pretty sure it will be entertaining, at least.
Yeah, Kaines debate strategy was very odd. I expect Harris to rip him a new one. Warren would also make him look like a fool.
Particularly when attack dog doesn't suit Kaine. Harris on the other hand is well suited to tearing Republican suits down.
I'm very curious as to what Biden's debate strategy will be. I imagine it will depend a ton on how the questions are worded for Trump, because Trump's resume as President and any questions about it should be enough to tear him down on its own without the need for Biden to be completely on the offense. But im guessing the questions won't be hardball enough in Trump's direction.
Anyone got any similar comparisons to where we were this time in 2016?
Just say Kamala so I can get a campaign Biden/Harris shirt already.

Kaine and Biden were announced as running mates on Fridays. I'm not sure what the news value of announcing it on a Friday is, though.
It was reportedly delayed til next week.
Pence is an experienced radio personality, and as mentioned he just shook his head and chucked the whole time and Bidened his way through. Kaine was clearly way out of his element as attack dog and seemed frustrated.
If you've watched any of the hearings with Harris you know she's cool under pressure and a relentless questioner. I feel a head to head against Pence, Trump admin stand-in, is a much better showcase for her than the debates against multiple Democrats. As long as she doesn't try to do anything corny and just attacks like a prosecutor, which is easier as the president's attack dog.
Of course as a 1) black 2) woman, she will be perceived less charitably by some than a white man would pursuing a similar strategy.
At this point in 2016 it was just after the Democratic convention when Hillary was at her highest approval for a short while due to the convention bounce.
She reached about where Biden has been sitting for a few months.
I thought Kamala came off generally pretty capable in the Dem debates, minus one or two egregious flubs. But I agree I think she'll shine more in a one-on-one. The 1v9 format of the primary debates is a really pointless structure because no president or vice president is ever going to operate in that format. Biden generally did ok to poor in those, but delivered his strongest performance in his one-on-one with Bernie. I think Kamala would do quite well, I'm just saying I don't necessarily think it'll be another Biden/Ryan affair.
I'm going to throw up. Why'd I watch this again.Pollsters See Hint Of Landslide In Donald Trump Fade | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC

Wasn't that just an "anonymous insider" thing? I don't think the campaign ever officially backtracked from the first week of August. That was the last official word on the timing.
If it makes you feel any better, polls back then didn't weight for education, which led to the 'big miss' of that year. I put big miss in quotations, as polling wan't that far off in the end. Also, Hillary.
