Description

“We have to believe in things that we have not seen before in order to bring them about.” Rebecca Traister, New York Magazine writer-at-large and author of “Good and Mad,” and Brittney Cooper, Rutgers University professor and author of “Eloquent Rage,” join Desi Lydic to discuss channeling anger as well as faith surrounding the election to motivate action. They talk about the unreasonable expectations that come with Kamala Harris breaking down firsts in her presidential campaign, how the Right portrayed their views of women at the RNC, and how Tim Walz can solve America’s daddy issues. #DailyShow #Election #KamalaHarris #TimWalz Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshow Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/?ftag=PPM-05-10aei0b Follow Comedy Central: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentral Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentral Watch full episodes of The Daily Show: https://www.cc.com/shows/the-daily-show About The Daily Show: Jon Stewart and The Best F**king News Team host The Daily Show, an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program analyzing the biggest stories in news, politics, and culture through a sharp, satirical lens.

Loved what Britney Cooper said at the end. People on the margins can't be afford to be cynical. Vote for your life because that is what this election is about.

My father, who died in 2016, always said, ‘when women run the world, it will be a much better place” - I have been waiting my entire life (I am 72) to see a FEMALE PRESIDENT, in my lifetime. I. Now. Have. Hope. That I will see this in November!!!! I am working hard doing political campaigning, writing postcards, and will work the election again to ensure democracy prevails!!!
