But of course this just proves there IS a conspiracy!  

Donald Trump, aided and abetted by Stephen Miller, Jeff Sessions, and Rod Rosenstein, ripped thousands of children, including infants and toddlers, from their parents. Then they put them in cages. Over a hundred are still alone. At least six have died. #VOTE #BidenHarris2020

“We have now heard of us taking breastfeeding defendant moms away from their infants,” one government prosecutor wrote to his superiors. “I did not believe this until I looked at the duty log.”

Margaret Sullivan has never been so right: The defining media story of this era is mainstream journalism’s refusal to deny [Donny] a giant megaphone whenever he holds out his hand 

The President has now lost this *five times* (district court, 2d Circuit, Supreme Court, district court again, 2d Circuit again).

He's got one shot left, the Supreme Court (again), which earlier ruled against him 7-2. Not clear if they'll even take it.https://t.co/BAjQGXysE2

Ah yes, some of the most indelible moments in VP debate history.

George H. W. Bush had a terrible performance against Geraldine Ferraro.
