Monday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Dana Bash, Oprah Winfrey, Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, and more.

Theater of the Absurd

“[Democrats] are … trying to put forward male figures — Tim Walz being one of them, Doug Emhoff last night — who can speak to men out there who might not be the sort of testosterone-laden, you know, gun-toting kind of guy who wants to listen to Hulk Hogan and the kind of players that came out of the RNC.” —CNN’s Dana Bash

Sexism Bait

“It’s okay in 2024 to be a man comfortable in his own skin who supports a woman.” —Dana Bash

Non Compos Mentis

“If you cannot control when and how you choose to bring your children into this world … there is no American Dream.” —Oprah Winfrey

Projection

“[Trump] encouraged Putin to invade our allies.” —Kamala Harris

The BIG Lies

“I know the importance of safety and security, especially at our border.” —Kamala Harris

“We will pass a middle-class tax cut.” —Kamala Harris

Village Idiot

“Kamala Harris’s proposed price-gouging ban might irritate academics, but it makes sense to everyone else.” —law professor Zephyr Teachout in an Atlantic op-ed titled, “Sometimes You Just Have to Ignore the Economists.”

For the Record

“The last time Harris vowed to help fix inflation, she was the ‘tie-breaking vote’ on the effort to pump hundreds of billions of dollars into an overheated economy.” —David Harsanyi

Political Futures

“The 2023-2024 campaign season is not just the strangest on record, it’s also arguably the most anti-democratic. … Have those who lectured us about democracy in danger now decided to save it by destroying it?” —Victor Davis Hanson

“If voters truly understood the policies the Harris/Walz ticket intends to impose on the country, this election would already be over.” —Laura Hollis

Belly Laugh of the Day

“[Harris has] been in office for the last three and a half years so she has a record of accomplishments.” —California Governor Gavin Newsom
