This is so dumb.
We need to be working on saving rural healthcare, getting veterans their benefits & helping make life easier for folks who are worrying at their kitchen tables. We should hit a political reset button & get to work for folks who need us.pic.twitter.com/8Ila9Ko8MD— Doug Jones (@DougJones) July 23, 2019
The video was all over political twitter last night because Donny Jr. thought it proved something very sinister about that Jones fella…
My favorite parts of this video, in order:
1) The tracker gasping for breath;
2) The tracker’s inability to ask a well-formed question
2) @SenDougJones being so cool about the whole thing that his ice-cream sandwich didn’t melt.— Daniel W. Drezner (@dandrezner) July 22, 2019
This is very funny.
Doug Jones… seems to really know what he’s doing.
I especially like the detail that the person asking the guy from Alabama who was elected by Alabama voters this pretend self-righteous question about Alabamians is from “Colorado Rising Action.”

Lol … Let me clarify that my initial claim was complete horseshit. pic.twitter.com/ATbyYIZohE

Okay, yes, that seems like some very relevant context that ought to be included.
And thank you very much for explaining it because I had never heard that term before.

This video manages to make a fairly nerdy senator look like Steve McQueen if he had starred in a commercial for ice cream sandwiches.
If I were Jones, I’d be sending links to it in my fundraising emails. https://t.co/BmmcoRpviF
