A live tweet #teamrhetoric analysis of @JoeBiden #DemConvention speech: 1/x #DemConvention2020
The biographical video was well done 2/x
Biden voice at start seems empty, in an open space. He jumps into the bright line of the election - dark and light. He has some teleprompter reading issues. And his pauses and hands work well 3/x

i get the @AOC endorsement of Bernie for president but, & as much as i support her, this just causes more divisiveness at a time when we need unification behind the nominee who actually stands a chance of beating Trump - why give them ANY reason?!

#DemConvention2020
turns out i didn’t fully ‘get’ the @AOC Bernie endorsement tonight.. that’s on me, & i apologise for speaking out of turn. the last thing i want is to create discord between those of us who ultimately want the same thing.

thanks for setting me straight.
rather than deleting my initial tweet & pretending i wasn't 'that' idiot with a twitter acc, is it not more beneficial to use this conversation as a means to educate those of us (myself included) who may not have been fully aware of #DNC procedure?

I went on @CBSN earlier today to talk about the Democratic Party's attitude toward progressives at the #DemConvention.

Full video:
Re progressive issues like Medicare for All: "We have to start asking: if it's politically expedient to do the right thing, if it's the right thing to do, why are so many of these Democrats rejecting the policy platform that Americans overwhelmingly prefer." #DemConvention2020
"As often as Democrats have been saying 'Beating Trump is not the only issue,' just saying 'beating Trump is not the only issue' isn't enough to not enough to explain to voters what issue IS on the table that will actually meaningfully change their lives." #DemConvention

In 8 minutes of remarks, @BernieSanders thanks his supporters. "our movement continues and it's getting stronger everyday. Many of the ideas we fought for that just a few years ago were considered radical are now mainstream.
@BernieSanders But, @BernieSanders warns: "If Donald Trump is reelected, all the progress we have made will be in jeopardy." #DemConvention2020

Watching #DemConvention2020 and want to shout out @SenDougJones . He has REALLY gone hard for HBCUs during his term. Folks in Alabama need to send him back to the Senate. He hosts an annual HBCU summit 1/

Republican @JohnKasich says America is at a crossroads, and continuing to follow the same path as the last four years "will have terrible consequences for America's soul"

"We're being taken down the wrong road by a president who has pitted one against the other" #demconvention
.@JohnKasich acknowledges potential GOP backlash for his support of @JoeBiden:

"I'm sure there are Republicans and Independents who couldn't imagine crossing over to support a Democrat. They fear Joe may turn sharp left and leave them behind. I don't believe that" #DemConvention
Former @GOP chair @Reince tells @NorahODonnell @JohnKasich supporting @JoeBiden at #DemConvention2020 isn't surprising, citing his repeated attacks on Trump

"If the Dems want to try to portray a group of Republicans as defectors...they'll probably have to do better than Kasich"

I bet all that time wasted, refusing to plan a virtual convention until a couple of weeks ago while Biden and the Democrats have been planning ours for months is looking prettttty stupid to Trump and the Republicans right now.
