I may have left NBC last year, but I keep popping up on their news sites for hard-hitting investigations like, "What Time Does the Super Bowl Actually Start?" 🙃

Fear the conversation this year at your holiday gatherings?

🧵Time for my annual thread of table-safe topics Dems & GOP actually agree on!

1) Per @today.yougov.com - Should the gov't require all phone manufacturers to use a common charging cord?
D - 81% yes
R - 64% yes

10) Our election results weren't really a reflection of Trump or Harris.

They were merely part of a global trend of "throwing out the bums" in hope for something better - regardless of party.

According to 538, more than 80% of incumbent parties around the world lost seats or vote share in 2024.

7) Social media is:

- how most voters now get their information (see below)

- not incentivized to educate you on all of candidates' policies

- incentivized to share only the most enraging policies and cultural flashpoints

3) This biz model is why you don't get chronological posts from your friends...but instead get inflammatory content from ppl you're not close to.

It's locked us into a pattern of constant frustration, regardless of:
- which party is in charge;
- unemployment figures;
- the cost of groceries.
