Got a feeling that this dude might be the non-politician highlight of the night, like the woman who lost her dad to Trump's COVID bullshit.

What's Jill Biden's RateMyProfessor score

Edit: Just checked, 3.7, that's actually not great all things considered

Yeah I can see that, most of her low scores are for difficulty, which I could see as a badge of honor

Honestly been surprised at how little anyone has talked about the convention today. I think the endless cascade of trash from the first 2 days has burnt a fair number of people out on continuing to show up.

There is this, though:

There really hasn't been much to discuss. It's been fine; it's done what it was meant to do so far.

Did a bunch of the more moderate/liberal/neo-liberal posters leave with the great Lowtax scandal exodus and all the self-bans when Trump won? I feel like there were a lot more of them around here, but none of them are posting. WAY less cheerleading than, say, in 2016.

I was just talking to a friend of mine about this. Where is everyone? Things are quiet, too quiet, and it’s making me nervous. Someone page Arzy.

I'm probably a liberal by current SA standards, I just don't like arguing on the internet and if someone says anything positive about Democrats here it seems like everyone piles on to try and own the lib.

Like, I supported Buttigieg in the primary. I just didn't advertise it because it wasn't worth the insults.

I am convinced the only reason Kerry is here is because she played Olivia Pope on Scandal.

Seeing someone who played a character in which she had an affair with the GOP President for years and helped rig an election for him is emceeing the Convention is making me lol

Obama can give a loving speech, yeah. It makes me forget all the bad poo poo his administration did momentarily.

Would definitely vote for him over anyone else (but Bernie) that was running this year.

Obama going for the soft, “Tom Hanks as America’s Dad” speech. I was hoping he would draw some blood after Bill broke Presidential Decorum to fire shots last night.

I guess that sort of vengeful take no prisoners attitude is more of a Clinton family thing.
