The day after the election, the President made a surprise visit to campaign HQ in Chicago to thank staff and volunteers. Here’s what he said.

#we cried #he cried #it was a big crying thing

YOU SHOULD WATCH THIS. It’s so moving. He talks about how he started out working with communities in Chicago, and how inspired he is by the young people in his campaign who are so much better now than he was back then, and how he’s certain that young progressives will go on to do much greater things beyond the next four years. I was sobbing by the end, because I’m so fucking grateful this man is still my President. He’s an actual human being, with actual empathy for all people, not just the people who can serve his best interests. Beautiful.
