part of the reason i beat up so hard on democratic weakness is we need people who are tough on the monsters that continue to allow childrens brains to be splattered on the walls by gunshots. i dont want to make nice with these people. they're not "good friends" and "colleagues" on the other side.

How he talked about Kamala after the debate I think it was, he was so 100% behind her, just talking about her strengths he seemed to really admire her. He is opportunistic but he seemed perfectly comfortable playing second third fourth fiddle to a black woman. That has stuck with me about him.
