Thank you Stephen for having Doug on so that we can get to know him. I feel like the media these days only want to showcase the loudest and most obnoxious. Seeing this wonderful man supporting his wife and speaking out about hate is what we all need so much more of in the media. Thank you Late Show 😊🙏👍💙

I don't think I've ever heard him speak before. It's smart to bring him out to show a working partnership that resembles more and more relationships right now. Smart, kind men supporting their spouse in a traditionally female role. It's so much more common now than just a couple decades ago! 👏👏✨🙏❤

You can tell he's not a politician. He speaks from the heart. So refreshing.

Please have Doug back on the show! He is a graceful and thoughtful speaker. A true gentlemen! I love how he adores VP Harris and is very protective of her. He stands behind her and President Biden. She is a lucky lady to have such a wonderful and supportive husband! Please people, vote blue to save our democracy! Biden/Harris 2024 🇺🇸

This is the first time I feel like a guest is speaking directly to me! Must come from all those speeches, but you can tell he is being his real authentic self and it’s such a breath of fresh air! Four more years!❤😊
