Bent Knees
The Republican Nation convention is underway, and every former critic still in the party, from Donald Trump’s new veep JD Vance to Nikki, is bending the knee in a show of unity. Plus, the Biden campaign continues to go after critics in the part who think he should step aside, even as the map to victory continues to shrink.

Blue MAGA
In some concerning ways, President Biden has taken a page out of Donald Trump’s book some in his party pressure him to leave the ticket, and a few of his supporters are attacking anyone opposed to his place atop the Democratic ticket.
At the same time, some Democrats who publicly, and accurately, call another Trump term a serious threat to democracy don’t really think that’s the case, and their actions show it.
Plus, Sarah gives some focus group insights on how Black voters feel about Vice President Harris leading the ticket, as well as how swing voters are viewing the election post-debate.

Customer Reviews
Part 1 - sent a couple weeks ago before things had changed )I absolutely gasped
I’m with you , TRUTH . I’m a lifelong Dem . I’ll listen next to Tim and Ezra. LEAD- I’m following you 3 . THANK YOU!)
Part 2- 7/24/24
I hear you 3 ! Anger , hurt , loss…
You were out front , in harmony w Pod Save. As far as I’m concerned YOU cut the new path we all needed !
I’m truly sorry you have suffered for it .
You misunderstand
There was no reason for people to be hateful in comments to you guys, but Tim and Sarah were so harsh in attitude from the get go after the debate.
I understand your passion, but Some of us love and respect President Biden. He is not an idiot for not getting out in 5 minutes or selfish. He’s a good and decent man that made the right decision without your harshness. He is a hero to many of us who have struggled to get people elected for decades. A consequential president.
JVL or Tom Nichols felt the same way, but were not so glaringly mean.
Do unto others.
PS I’m in my sixties and wasn’t probably as measured in my 30s, so I understand that too.
Tim is wrong
Again! President Biden calling into Kamala Harris first address was excellent and well done. Kamala keeping everyone on is brilliant.
JVL and Sarah are spot on - dump Tim
