  1. Public endorsement of Clinton on Wednesday, public takedown of Trump on Fallon on Thursday. I like it!

  2. Sounds to me like endorsement time! Hillary will have wrapped up the nomination on Tuesday, this will enable Obama to get behind her publicly and, what better place than a young, late night TV audience

  3. A Thursday Two-fer!

  4. Obama would do the Jimmy Kimmel show but Trump won’t let anyone else in the Green Room.

    Now the real campaigning starts. I’m getting really excited just thinking about it.
