    So nice to see someone who supports and isn't threatened by his wife's success.
  • @egalitarian-rex
    He’s a very personable man who honors his wife, his president, and the people of the United States with decency and integrity. How refreshing.
  • @bartleg81
    I can totally see him as the first First Gentleman.
  • @magayusog
    It's the way he speaks about her that is so heartwarming.
  • @johnadams9136
    Love how he talks to Stephen and the crowd by looking at everyone as he talks, so professional and empathetic to everyone listening
  • He's a perfect first Second Gentleman. Really insightful and supportive, which seems to be who he really is as a person. What a good guy. And a great couple.
  • @jhehir
    I like how he speaks directly to the audience.

  • @donnaharper5940
    Awesome. Glad to see him... he's a true Gentleman in addition to being a supportive husband, intelligent, & kind human being.
  • @CaptEoNinja83
    He's set SUCH a high bar for future Second Gentlemen. It is so awesome to have a Second Gentleman who is so darn nice and productive in his duties and so supportive and clearly loving of his wife. A Gentleman in every sense of the word!

    Wow - Doug seems like such a genuine guy - so darn refreshing!
  • @cornfloats7004
    Such a gracious man! He and the VP make such a fine couple!
  • @itspersonal3351
    Wow! It’s so refreshing to listen to this man of genuine integrity and compassion. The difference in lawyers associated with republicans compared to lawyers surrounding democrats is night and day. A true professional! I love him! 🇺🇸💙⚖️
  • I admire his strength of character, his love for his wife and his enthusiasm for supporting her dream and the country.
  • Look how he always addresses the audience. He is cute, funny, self deprecating and very supportative and second fiddle to his vice president wife. He ties to be a normal person and be authentic😀
  • Seems like a very nice guy, well spoken, and is a great support to V.P. Harris! He would do GREAT in the White House!
