I don't know whether splitting GD had something to do with it, but until late at night, all the posts were full of happiness and pride and celebrations. Not a single word criticizing the President or, for that matter, other Democrats. And the wonderful, heart stopping photos of the rainbowed White House, Little Rock and Niagara Falls were the top.
Thank you all.

(44,228 posts)And yesterday was spectacular.
Between the Supreme Court decision, and related celebrations, and the Pinckney funeral and eulogy, yesterday was an emotional roller-coaster at DU unlike any other day in recent memory.
And to have all of that, in GD, without the primary sniping and nastiness, was truly glorious.
