As I predicted (cc @patrickrhone). Now everyone shut up! LET’S GO
@pratik I was wondering if this is strategy or lethargy. Your prediction implies the former, which is nice. Also, you said Monday, so @patrickrhone may win over a technicality ;-)
@samgrover Well, if he had to do it, he would’ve to do it before Aug.7th when the Dems do the official (but virtual) roll call to nominate a President. Doing it a day before would’ve caused chaos. Doing it just after the GOP Convention is basically to steal their thunder and neutralize their attacks. No one will be talking about the GOP Convention next week (Sunday-Monday same difference).
@stupendousman Maybe I should quit my job tomorrow and join the campaign full-time. A desi at the top of the ticket! I thought I would never see the day 😍
@stupendousman We already had the conversation. Sorry, son, you can’t be the first Indian-American President. His instant retort was, I can be the first male Indian-American President. I genuinely LOLed.
@pratik Yep. You get the bragging rights.
Now, I think anyone asking for this should be required now to work on getting behind whoever is at the top of the ticket.
@patrickrhone Especially those big donors. Double those amounts on those checks now. I want all those who were vociferously asking Biden should step down must now bend the knee and kiss Kamala’s ring.
Anyone else now asking to keep politics off the timeline can go to hell.

I can’t believe there are people who say this! Nope! Now more than ever is the time for politics on the timeline!
@DaveyCraney The ones with privilege. The ones whose lives will not change drastically regardless of who wins. They may suffer from the occasional bouts of guilt while sipping their wines but they'll get over it quickly as they usually do. But they are always more than happy to jump on the bandwagon of progress and joy if things go well.
