It is a great place to start. Especially given the Vice President ial debate that we all watched. It is entitled, this is why maga loves j. D. Vance. And you wrote in part quote, weve seen all this before. In 2016 and 2020, Mike Pence was the gentleman debater. He was less polished and less effective than vance, but he had a similar, softening effect on the ticket. In 2016, his Earnest Faith and apparent kindness might have reassured voters that Trump Couldnt be that bad, not if he had chosen pence. We know exactly how that turned out. In choosing advanced and discarding pence, trump traded actual decency for a man who could simulate decency, and thats exactly what advanced did on tuesday night. But he couldnt keep it together for the entire evening. At the very end, the mask slipped. On tuesday night, walters learned exactly why maga loves vance so much. Hes a talented communicator.

[ applause ] vice president harris has dedicated her life to public service. I know, i know that she loves our country. And i know that she will be a president for all americans. As a conservative, as a patriot, as a mother, as someone who reveres our constitution, i am honored to join her in this urgent cause. And there you have it. The democrats doing their coalition building with maybe the most unlikely pairing in recent history. Vice president kamala harris and liz cheney, even dick cheney, father of liz cheney, the man still vilified by democrats for his bullish defense of the iraq war as vice president. He, too, will vote for kamala harris. Meaning liz cheney, dick cheney, and aoc are all voting for the same presidential candidate. These are bizarre times, folks, just to say the least. But maybe just maybe this is the avenger style coalition needed to defeat the american thanos that is donald trump. Joining me now is jelani cobb, staff writer for the new yorker and dean of the co
