Barack Obama knows a lot about a lot of things.

Republicans fighting back against changes Obama made means those changes are important, as with most of the major progress in American history.

The Republicans' response to Obama confused a lot of people. I really think there's been a measure of clarity at the end, with Trump's election, that was not present during the Obama presidency.

I don't think the Democrats need a silver bullet.

We're not going to be living in a world where white identity politics is the basis for a major political party.

Trump has a lot of authoritarian tendencies that need to be a serious concern.

The story of the Republican Party is of a far-right that has moved from the fringes of the party to a complete domination of the party. The moderate, mainstream and pragmatic leaders of the party have been pushed out or died off.
