"I've laid every bit of [my health] record out, I haven't hidden a thing. You should go ask Tr.u.mp for his...I'm surrounded by great doctors all the time and I'll do whatever they tell me...I'm not opposed, if they say, hey, you should have an exam" I appreciated him saying he's gonna get shit regardless of WHAT his answer is. Did I have two exams? Ten? It's always going to be wrong.

Feisty Joe came out on the question of whether his delegates can vote their conscience at the convention "Delaware...it was a red state when I started...I understand the self interest of every candidate. If they think [running with Biden] is going to hurt them, they're going to run away...how accurate does anybody think the polls are these days?....The campaign hasn't started in earnest yet...a lot can happen. But I believe Im the best qualified to govern...I think I can win, too....we talk about money raised---we're not doing bad!...we're doing well! With that, you got anything you want to follow up on, you want to ask me?" :Reporters all laugh: "Unless they say, 'there's no way you can win.' But nobody says that. No poll says that."

That sounds like Peter Alexander yelling something at him as he leaves the room but I couldn't quite hear it, but POTUS' response was, "Listen to him" So I assume it has something to do with TFG

I just spent a sweaty hour outside while my girls chalked the driveway. Now they're in their bath (late, because summer) and I can join back in and it seems like he's had some mistakes but is very much holding his own. So Imma gonna need everyone in the media to take a huge step back and get it together because wtf are we doing right now? How is this the main thing when Trump is not only a convicted criminal but also an (alleged) pedophile? Who is meeting with *not our allies* on the regular? Wtf man.

ok that was a long time to be the only person on stage and a wide range of policy to speak to, IMO. It felt like a totally normal POTUS presser that sould barely be news worthy. I am not trying to influence anyone's opinion. I definitely encourage everyone to watch for themselves but for the purposes of real-time updates I try to be as close to a stenographer with context as I can. I'm counting on you all to discuss this with me so I can process my thoughts

And now CNN is being stupid. This narrative is not over and we are just going to have to ignore it.

Some good news this morning. I do not feel this. Not one bit. All my utilities have gone up this month. Insurance is going up. And my "raise" was a messy $300 for the whole year. A whopping 11.54 a pay I was responding to this in a pile of kids earlier and I just realized how robotic my response to you sounded. I meant to convey how much I empathize with everyone being squeezed by rising prices and instead I think i just yelled a fact at you. Truly, it is rough out there and I imagine it must be extra difficult as a single parent <3

"I've got to finish this job. I've got to finish this job." In response to a question about why he hasn't stepped aside for the younger generation. After mentioning P25 and the most conservative court.

This is such a fucking a mess.
It’s really triggering a lot of my 2020 feels and I hate that. Why did we have to run so scared then. And I know - because of TFG being the actual guy. But argh.

My H and I do that one too, but I had forgotten the others. Another favorite is "(Americans) are working hard to put food on their family." 🫠😆

Oh I wasn't trying to be cute, everyone I know is battling illness or the lingering effects of one right now Sorry if that came out snotty, that's not at all what I meant. Only that everyone seems to be sick with some kind of crud right now while covid wastewater is through the roof. 🫤 Oh lord, you meant everyone with a "cold" actually has covid. I didn't 100% pick that up, I was focused on the tv. Sorry elle LOL

So weird! State Farm is pretty much the only one who will insure mine and I LOATHE them. Did you have to pay for the anti-theft upgrade? I love my car but this has been beyond frustrating. I did not pay for the upgrade. I got a notice and took it to my dealership (who I take it to for all maintenance) and they upgraded it at no cost to me. I drive out of my way for this dealership though. It's not easy to find good mechanics. My husband is a mechanic but their shop only does a small amount of warranty work. He's got to call the dealership about something else that needs to be warrantied, so I'm going to get him to ask. Thank you!!
