I think we're winning this one in the court of public opinion [View all]

I’m anxious to see what polling shows and I hope that there is some polling out next week, but based solely on what I’m seeing online and the people that I’m speaking to — the majority of Americans know what they saw in Minnesota. Now, the administration is desperately spinning a fake narrative. And oh my God, have they deployed their bots and their trolls on social media. But when you look at the numbers, those bots and trolls are vastly outnumbered by people who are outraged by what happened. My suggestion? Don’t read comments on social media and don’t look at 😆 as a measure of anything. 95% of them aren’t even real people and they’re not even in this country.
