I love this woman. I think she'll be President some day.

[Cousin Dupree]

[onecaliberal]

1. Me too! She is brilliant.

[blm]

26. Top notch. My favorite new congressperson.

[Lochloosa]

2. ?

[whistler162]

35. The HORROR you don't know who that is....

neither did I until the next entry.

[link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katie_Porter|

[asiliveandbreathe]

3. Yes, yes yes.....Katie Porter - a champion in her own right..a rising star...n/t

[calimary]

13. Definitely! I've been extremely impressed with her.

Definitely a rising star!

[tblue37]

4. I sure hope so! nt

[Faux pas]

5. She is

impressive for sure. Ms Warren taught her well.

[jcgoldie]

7. She's great

And I loved her responses to Maher's bullshit comparing Warren to George McGovern. She brought up her own experience winning as a progressive in conservative Orange County.

[Faux pas]

8. Maybe

next time she'll be on Bill's panel.

[blm]

27. In 2016 Maher was begging Warren to run.

He offered a $1,000,000.00 donation to start up a presidential bid.

[smirkymonkey]

6. Very impressive person!

I am glad Bill Maher has had her on a few times so that we can get to know more about her.

[FakeNoose]

9. The times I've seen her on TV she has been impressive

I'll bet she was an awesome professor, but don't dare show up to her class unprepared.

[hlthe2b]

10. She reminds me of a young Angela Merkel...

[madaboutharry]

11. Absolutely.

She is brilliant, grounded, and street smart. I love her too.

[riversedge]

12. Maybe. Would be grand for all of America.

[Runningdawg]

14. She's fantastic - I love watching her work!

[HAB911]

15. I hope so

[yonder]

16. Same here. She is bright, knowledgeable and just plain fabulous.

If she chooses to remain in politics, she'll be a force to reckon with.

[TNNurse]

17. She is able to point out the ignorance and incompetence of those she questions,

while remaining calm and polite. My respect for her is immense.

[SayItLoud]

18. x 10 nt.

[UniteFightBack]

19. She is extremely effective. nt

[ancianita]

20. Definitely! I'll support her from day one! Biden/Porter 2020!

[Magoo48]

41. She is my Rep. We'd like to keep her here where she's relevant.

I’d hate to see her languishing in the suspended animation that is the Vice Presidency.

[ancianita]

46. You are part right. But she's not one to waste that job, but will learn presidential work and be IN

with the most important executive meetings and decisionmaking. It's not just sitting in the Senate.

She'll be traveling to meet foreign leaders, learn geopolitical politics in a way that will use her brilliant mind for the good of the US.

You can't suppose, given the past experience of Biden, that he was in suspended animation, know what I mean?

To elevate yer fast so that we have a wise decision maker after Biden would be the best thing we could do for our country, imo.

(I sent a check to her campaign back when, and was SO happy to see OC go blue.)

[JaneQPublic]

21. Her interview with Bill Maher Friday

Must see--->

[Totally Tunsie]

22. Katie is definately the Democratic rising star!

She's bright, charming, effective, and is one to watch and support along her way.

[usaf-vet]

23. She impressed me with this interview with Bill Maher.

See it here:

and here:

I will continue to watch her. She has a national future IMO.

[democrank]

24. Terrific

[Karadeniz]

25. Fingers crossed! We always make sure we sit down and listen to her gems!

[pnwmom]

28. Agreed! n/t

[Polly Hennessey]

29. Please, let it be so.

[SCVDem]

30. Lawrence loves Katie.

She is on a lot.

[bdamomma]

55. Oh

Lawrence is very impressed with her right from the beginning.

[DangerousRhythm]

31. Smart, funny and fabulous.

I love me some Katie Porter and I’d be proud to vote for her someday.

[Pepsidog]

32. I agree.

[sellitman]

33. She is charming.

I'll be watching her rising star.

[Hulk]

34. Uh oh...get ready for the reichwing attack machine...

She isn't afraid to speak out on issues, and she has a good handle on reality. The "perfect ingredients" to piss off the gop cult and fox propaganda network. We will be hearing a LOT about her soon. "Be afraid...be very afraid". She's not Muslim? She is Caucasian, but they will find some BS besides her ethnicity and religion to attack with a vengeance.

[Yavin4]

36. You must listen to Chris Hayes' podcast interview with her. I must warn you though.

After listening to this interview, your love may turn into an obsession.

Did you know she took bankruptcy law at Harvard law school from Elizabeth Warren?

[Rhiannon12866]

40. She also named her daughter Elizabeth - after her mentor

She said so on Friday's interview with Bill Maher. And thanks for the link.

[donkeypoofed]

37. She is awesome sauce !!!

So so smart. Washington NEEDS her and her incredible brains and passion.

[PandoraAwakened]

38. Rethugs cringe when they find out she is cross-examining them at Congressional hearings.

Love Katie! Like her mentor, Elizabeth Warren, she's a smart, badass, female teacher---Can you say "antidote" to Rump?

[Glimmer of Hope]

39. She is all that.

Her older Maher appearance is hillarious!

[kimbutgar]

42. Senator Potter who will replace Feinstein who retires in 2024

[CTyankee]

43. Sweet Jesus, YES! Please let it be. I love her!

(um, Porter not Potter...)

[kimbutgar]

44. Dog gone auto correct got me

I would love Senator Porter.

[CTyankee]

45. We've really got a powerhouse of females in Congress ready to lead!

I've got three granddaughters and I can see a brighter future for them...

[Brother Buzz]

49. Snap! By all my measures, she's a shoo-in for Feinstein's seat

[blm]

53. No one can beat her on a debate stage

[Kahuna7]

47. Yep!

[unitedwethrive]

48. Love her!

We need more dedicated, brilliant women!

[Dagstead Bumwood]

50. Can she start tomorrow?

Had heard her name mentioned in passing on here but was mostly unfamiliar with her. She did a great job with Maher.

[Gothmog]

51. I would love to see another law professor as POTUS

President Obama is such a great example of how well law professors do as POTUS

[underthematrix]

52. Oh I love love Katie Porter

[bdamomma]

54. I like her.

She's brilliant, something that has been lacking for some time now. Smart woman. I saw her on Bill Maher she's right on target.
