EXCERPT
Even though they clashed on big issues – including the economy and abortion rights – the debate felt strangely substance-free.
It is the hollowness of the contest that means such thin fare as childless cat ladies and cat-eating immigrants can dominate the headlines.
My advice to the candidates: get off the internet. Worry less about what will get you likes from people who haven’t seen sunlight in months, and more about what America’s hard-working families want and need. Forget cat-eating immigrants and cat-loving billionaires, and talk to real people, in the real world, most of whom have dogs anyway, and children. From the economy to housing to the border, America has many crises, and the people deserve a vision for how to fix them. There are 55 days left – up your game.
