- A number of big nameshighlighted night one

He has had more than enough time

to prove that he can do the job,

but he is clearly in over his head.

He cannot meet this moment.

He simply cannot be whowe need him to be for us.

It is what it is.

- [Eric] It was a speechmeant to appeal to humanity,

while making the caseit's a necessary quality

missing from the current Oval Office.

- Whenever we look to this White House

for some leadership, or consolation,

or any semblance of steadiness,

what we get instead is chaos,

division, and a total andutter lack of empathy.
