I was so happy to see Bill Clinton and his old mannerisms … but the critics are right saying the speech was a little slow. Especially the first half. And I can’t believe they made him say “President of Joy.” https://t.co/EDwGe2FzsD

Clinton also said Harris/Walz would “bring in this breath of fresh air” to government. … As opposed to the stale old Biden air of the last 3.5 years? (Alternatively, it’s stale Trump air, because the Biden presidency has simply been erased like a bad dream.) https://t.co/yHpjGMCLma

I admit I don’t like the guy. Strikes me as nasty, not nice. But the only real bit of nastiness in this speech was the ridiculous Yale thing.

I admit, Walz’s speech wasn’t as bad as I’d hoped. But the idea that it was some great triumph seems absurd. Nothing striking or original. Do swing voters want a pep talk directed at Dem volunteers? It was an OK football pep talk, though going “one inch at a time” isn’t going to… https://t.co/l1hHbbRrl4

Good lord–never trust @NoahCRothman on immigration. The bill was a Mayorkas dream bill. It didn’t end “catch and release.” It created a whole new catch & release program (unless you think being released with a cell phone or an ankle bracelet isn’t being released.)… https://t.co/YdtEaIzdwY https://t.co/WyjtNjD0Tn
