Katy Tur and Stephanie Ruhle's coverage of the wedding

Is positively frenetic. I guess I get it but holy moly. I haven’t seen this kind of screaming adulation since 1964 and the Beatles.

Gayle King's pairing on CBS was pretty ludicrous, Michael Strahan on ABC could not STOP with the inane questions/comments, NBC was ok, mainly because they had quite a few Brits on.

But yeah,the fawning idiocy is tough to watch.

I think they are hilarious. When the carriage passed by I thought Stephanie was going to run down there!

I have been so down lately, this wedding was a nice reprieve.

Been invited.

They had fun, everyone needs a break from the Trump shit show.

Back to the sad reality of lost democracy tomorrow.

.... the idea of royalty is made up crap. We don't have fire breathing dragons,
flying carpets, pixies, or Dorthy riding her house inside a tornado and landing
on the wicked witch of the west.

Still happening as I type and they are expressing what millions are feeling.

Meanwhile, here on DU there is a whole lot of unappreciated mansplainin' going on.

I love Stephanie. I’m her “biggest fan”.

Just kidding. Love to watch her, I’ll say that much.
