A kid told me that when you hold hands with someone with fingers flat that’s “pancaking” and not very serious, but when you lock fingers that’s “waffling,” and way more serious. Has anyone else ever heard this lore?

Every four years I promise myself not to get in the bag for this stuff but then I’m streaming the DNC on the bus home and thinking, “Oh hell yeah, rules committee needs to pass a motion, let’s go, also this Mickey Guyton song should be played at baseball games.”

I promise myself I’m not going to think about politics for one day and then my brain goes “Beyoncé and Taylor Swift duet on Blackbird at the DNC then Paul McCartney joins for the final verse” and I hate myself for even being able to think thoughts like that.

This is such next level fundraising. It’s just a whole other world. The subject line is “A giant bag of Doritos.” I’ve never seen anyone nail it at this level.
Paul, do you remember how you felt the day after Donald Trump was elected?

I do. It was election night for me as well.

It was incredibly bittersweet. When I took the stage for my acceptance speech -- to represent California in the Senate -- I tore up my notes. I just said, “We will fight.”

Then I went home and I sat on the couch with a family-sized bag of nacho Doritos. I did not share one chip with anybody. Not even Doug. I just watched the TV with utter shock and dismay.

Two things are true eight years later: I still love Doritos and we still have not stopped fighting.
