What Went Down On Night 3 Of The DNC

Yes, Sarah! The shots in the climate change video without masks stood out to me the most.

These videos have been very powerful, and as has been said, are designed perfectly for the social media world we all increasingly inhabit, but one thing that is a little off to me is how all of these videos feel like they were shot in a pre-pandemic world. I realize the Democrats probably don’t want to focus on that each night, but I wonder if they shouldn’t be leaning into the state of the coronavirus more. What do others think?

Perhaps the most consequential reason COVID-19 makes me more optimistic about tackling climate change is that it significantly increased the chances that Biden will win in 2020, and Democrats will control the Senate, which significantly increases the chances of the U.S. passing major climate legislation and making major commitments to the EPA.
