America will be introduced tonight to a man they’re not familiar with — the Donald Trump of Mike Pence’s imagination. That, and other things I’m watching for night three: https://t.co/DqYUTurWUX — PolitiTweet.org

I often dwell on what Joe Biden told me a few years back. What if we treated everyone as if we know them personally—their struggles, heartaches, insecurities? How much healthier would society be? Not everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt. But most ppl do. Let's act like it. https://t.co/r75XFb3ZLw — PolitiTweet.org

@perrybaconjr What sentiment? That respectful criticism is welcomed but disrespectful harassment is not? (Pretending we can't tell one from the other is absurd.) — PolitiTweet.org

Media elites are human beings. They have disabled kids, friends with cancer, problems with mental health -- and really hard jobs to boot. A little decency goes a long way. — PolitiTweet.org

@ChrisConwayDC take a look at my inbox some day. there's quite a difference between the two. — PolitiTweet.org

If you want to respectfully hold reporters accountable, you're playing a vital role in civic society. If you want to take cheap shots, make bad-faith readings, harass us for mistakes & score points for your Twitter metrics, you're doing as much damage to civic society as Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

Is #1 relevant to reporting on #2? Yes. But sometimes they don't mix—b/c of editorial plans, or b/c of an oversight, or b/c we're tired & sloppy. (Happened to me last night; meant to note unprecedented use of Rose Garden in write-up of Melania.) Show some grace. We're all trying. — PolitiTweet.org

Sigh. As usual, two things can both be true: 1) Republicans are coloring way outside legal lines w this convention (Pompeo was egregious) and outlets are covering that 2) This is a TV show for 15-20m Americans and same outlets are covering what those voters are seeing/hearing — PolitiTweet.org

Social media is doing serious damage to Americans' mental health & sense of perspective. The stuff I see on Facebook and Twitter every day makes me as pessimistic about our future as anything I've witnessed on Capitol Hill. — PolitiTweet.org

His presence was immediate. His cadence was impeccable. His innate abilities as an orator were evident from the jump. Political phenoms don’t come around often — but you know them when you see them. Daniel Cameron: A star is born. https://t.co/E7k8fE5RWN — PolitiTweet.org

Puzzled at Tiffany & Eric's failure to humanize their dad. He's family! Tell us something we don't know! Make him three-dimensional! The most memorable line of Eric's speech—"Dad, let’s make Uncle Robert proud"—only accentuated the missed opportunity. https://t.co/E7k8fE5RWN — PolitiTweet.org

There can be no real recovery without first containing the virus. Every time someone like Larry Kudlow pretends that we’ve turned the corner—when we clearly have not—he’s doing a disservice not only to his boss but to the American public. https://t.co/E7k8fE5RWN — PolitiTweet.org

It just came to me. Tiffany Trump is Tara Reid circa "Van Wilder." — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Alberta @TimAlberta

Don't confuse Trump with Bush (whose "compassionate conservatism" prioritized prisoner re-entry). Still, 45 was smart to deliver a feel-good, made-for-social-media-sharing moment for a Christian Right base that needs some energizing at the moment. https://t.co/E7k8fE5RWN — PolitiTweet.org
