My second favorite comment:
I felt such incredible pride watching her concede—never have I admired her more than her confronting the greatest wall of adversity any of us has ever faced in public life. She was truly presidential through each oncoming wave of adversity and malice, starting 18 months ago. She WAS the president during her speech, leading us as only a true statesman can.
On a side note: Thank you, Wolf Blitzer and other male commentator on CNN, for undermining her speech’s strength and power by literally saying before anything else, she “was choking back tears” or “tears were flowing last night”. She was strength personified and she did not choke back tears. And even if she had, you wouldn’t have cared if a man got teary. You are part of the problem, CNN. Let women be strong and don’t comment on their “feelings” as you read them as if that has political value after they win the popular vote in the world’s largest democracy.
Our champion deserved better.
How do these people go through life being so deferential to authority? How could anyone write that about any politician? Like, how is your default position not, "even if I agree with this person, they are likely a borderline sociopath"? It's the one thing about politics I will never understand. Grow up and stop idolizing celebrities like a touching 8 year old.
