Don’t vote for a party, vote for what’s best for this country.

"Worry less. Do more." Wise words to live by between now and November

[loping]

As somebody who is not from the US, I am amazed at the state of the media there. Every media is politically biased and leaning, it's like an echo chamber for thought.

Rachel, no more debates without fact checking...shame on CNN.

[Jack-yfef]

Focus on the policies not the person or his age.

The moderators sucked. Every time they asked a questions to Trump, he started with "Let me go back to the topic before" and they should've immediately cut him off and said, "We aren't on that topic anymore. Here's the question we asked just now"

‘’Worry less and do more’’ great words to live by in all aspects of life!

***I’m not choosing a criminal dictator & THAT’S what MUST BE SOLD to the American people*** I’m still voting 💙 NO MATTER WHO!

I was so very upset about the way some of the MSNBC reporters turned their back on Joe Biden after the debate. Please look at what you're doing. Thank you Governor Newsome.

RACHEL! we can stop buying into the idea that "stamina" and lies shouted is what we want in a PResident. That we want the wisdom and compassion and the ability to make good decision that are a quality of a leader.

" . . . daylight and darkness" Sums it up perfectly.

[WilliamsSupport]

I can not understand what media like MSNBC and CNN want. They seem to be concerned about the future of things like democracy but at the same time talk down the prospects of the only candidate who can keep this fight going.

" It was daylight and darkness".. You better preach Gavin!! That's exactly what it is...good versus pure evil!

[grannygrimson]

Thank you Gavin Newsom!!💙💙💙 If I had to listen to those moderators continuously refer to trump as President, I would be thrown off my game too! I am so sick and frustrated by the lies that trump spews. The fact that this has been normalized and is becoming acceptable is pure BS!

[forevermusiclover]

Go back and listen to President Biden. He was not feeling well tonight but he was spot on with his answers.

[jt.]

Well said, Gavin....democracy is truly what's on the line.. not imagery or stamina...

[michelef]

Old school! Awesome to hear Mr. Newsom.

[loubliss]

How come no one talks about the things Joe wanted to do but the Republicans in the house stopped everything on every level, student loans and boarder control are 2 big ones that come to mind.

[Fionabren]

Vote for the Good Man who works for his country. Ignore the Con Man who works for himself and spews only lies.
