3. Good. He's engaged as he always is.

The thing that bothered me about the NRN incident (for lack of a better word — seriously — it happened and it needed to happen IMO) was that so many in the MSM tossed Sanders and O'Malley into a pool of something that was a mess.

O'Malley really was the one that was caught off guard. HE wasn't really at his best moment.

HE was also very quick to make it clear that he didn't mean to dismiss the BLM movement. It bothers me that people are willing to dismiss that he came back to Baltimore when the riots were happening. He knows BLM.

I do not expect the greater forums to see that, but it bugs me that this isn't generally acknowledged.
