Why isn't someone making an extraordinary Christmas speech, perhaps on the steps of the Capitol or some other attention-getting space, making a case our grandchildren will learn about in schools? Where is it? I will donate free sentences to you. Just someone do it. — PolitiTweet.org

I have no illusions about this, or any other individual thing, getting it done. But I don't understand where the fervor is, where that "passionate intensity" is, where the case is being made as loudly and unforgettably as possible, to make the issue winnable. — PolitiTweet.org

I understand the practical difficulties. But message matters. Rhetoric matters. Moving the public matters. Why is there not a thundering, historic, down-through-the-ages speech being given every day by someone right now? That doesn't require Mitch's consent. — PolitiTweet.org

Let us be absolutely, 100 percent clear about who is causing this problem: Republicans. But that does not mean the Democratic Party, as presently constituted, is adequate to this fight. This is the fight. We need a party that knows how to win it. — PolitiTweet.org

You don't need to be a game theory expert to predict where round after round of "I want to harm people, and I have no shame in doing it" vs. "I want to help people, but I don't want to go too far, and I'm not sure that's allowed, and I want to be polite" will land us all. — PolitiTweet.org

It is simply unsustainable that so many of the leaders who wish Americans ill have no dearth of confidence about their authority, while so many of the leaders who wish Americans well are full of insecurity about their power. — PolitiTweet.org

@BruneAlison "Around" led him naturally to rhyme of "playground," and then I said, But you have to broaden playground to apply to adults also. And he was like, "spirit's playground!" Kids are hilarious/wise. — PolitiTweet.org

When the pandemic began, my little boy and I took to writing poems together. Then the ritual slipped away. Today we did one more, to send you and your families into the holidays with some hope. Happy holidays from all of us. We will come through this. https://t.co/gzJZQap8iG — PolitiTweet.org

The thing Democrats should copy from Republicans is believing there is nothing they lack the authority to do. The thing where Democrats should go in a different way is in using that authority to make people’s lives better. — PolitiTweet.org
