@marymcnamara Didn’t say get rid of the whole thing. Just the bad hot takes from political reporters who aren’t on the ground reporting. — PolitiTweet.org

Trying to understand what the last 48 hours mean for the November election is like understanding how a cake will taste when the only ingredient in the bowl is the flour. Yes, it matters. But throw some rotten eggs in at the last minute and it won’t make a difference. — PolitiTweet.org

Imagine what Twitter would look like if for one day only journalists who were on the ground reporting live news used it and everyone else stayed silent. The world would suddenly have a deficit of bad takes about what everything means for the election. — PolitiTweet.org

This is abhorrent. I’ve worked a protest with Rod before and there is no one I can think of who is safer and cautious in the face of upheaval. There is zero chance they were confused for anything other than working journalists. — PolitiTweet.org

Woke up to feed the baby and scrolled through Twitter to try to see what is happening. Let me just set the bottle down and say: Journalists, don’t assume to know the why it happened when you’re still figuring out the what happened. Twitter is an echo chamber of shaky hot takes. — PolitiTweet.org

As someone who normally consumes every drop of news but is in the newborn forest so I’m currently dropping in and out like regular people watch news, opening Twitter is completely disorienting. I can’t imagine how voters are making sense of it all. — PolitiTweet.org

@jmsummers @DJJudd @reidepstein I don’t think it ever says to cover Obama. And I’m pretty sure @reidepstein was married by then. So I’m operating under the assumption that it’s a depiction of @jmsummers or I circa 2012. — PolitiTweet.org

If you’re wondering what happened to real-life Augie, after the campaign was over, two days later he meets someone new in DC, they fall in love, get married in 2017 and have a baby (during a pandemic in 2020). So it works out for him. — PolitiTweet.org

So the first episode @AnnaKendrick47 dates a @politico reporter who is leaving to cover the 2012 campaign. Which in real life is me. I was the Politico reporter who left the NY area to cover the campaign (and whose relationship subsequently fell apart.)... — PolitiTweet.org

@Free_Radical1 I got some this weekend. Sliced, into a bowl, sprinkled with sugar, left in fridge for a couple of hours and then eaten. The best way to have strawberries in my opinion. — PolitiTweet.org
