CNN will host 5 town halls next week with 2020 Democratic candidates:
• Kirsten Gillibrand on April 9
• Jay Inslee on April 10
• Julián Castro on April 11
• Marianne Williamson on April 14
• Andrew Yang on April 14 https://t.co/hvnUVlRiPx pic.twitter.com/O4sPXgphww— CNN (@CNN) April 2, 2019
Give CNN credit: They are committed to the bit.
My personal bet: Third or fourth questioner at Yang’s event brings up the Great Foreskin Controversy. Viral video of the evening will be how the moderator (or the unfortunate CNN staffers) manage this, hopefully before the show&tell portion of the evening begins.
Meanwhile, Marianne Williamson, or her handlers, decides that she can’t participate because the aura in the hall is wrong, or she remembers that’s the night she’s supposed to be spiritually harmonizing her jade vaginal egg. She goes back to her safe space, and bumps up her speaking fees to reflect her new ‘presidential candidate’ status. (I am no doubt being very unfair to these candidates; blame it on the hay fever.)

On the brighter side:
Serious offer: I will write a colum that analyzes Cillizza’s terrible analysis. In lieu of a salary, the organization needs to fund scholarships for students who are struggling financially. Dm with serious offers only. https://t.co/d64ZgO9hDD

5400 RTs, 3 serious offers with next steps meetings, and we’re now searching for a title. This has been a fun day! https://t.co/ffeURkzGB1

Can one of the conditions be that she gets to smack Cillizza upside the head with a large, dead fish? Because IMO, that’s the only kind of correction the Mad Bitcher might be able to understand…
