    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.
  • @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.
  • @magayusog
    It's the way he speaks about her that is so heartwarming.
  • @donnaharper5940
    Awesome. Glad to see him... he's a true Gentleman in addition to being a supportive husband, intelligent, & kind human being.

    I like how he speaks directly to the audience.
  • @cornfloats7004
    Such a gracious man! He and the VP make such a fine couple!
  • @bethfraser7518
    Wow - Doug seems like such a genuine guy - so darn refreshing!
  • 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😀
  • @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.
  • @marvinmartin4692
    It’s just so refreshing to see and hear a man with humility and humbleness. If only the other side could possess a 10th of that!

    The first husband married to our first female Aussie Prime Minister ( kinda equivalent ) Julia Gillard, was known as the ' First Bloke ' here - it was sooooo Aussie ❤️❤️ & he was great - just like Dougie 🤣❤️❤️
  • @toonlyrics
    Can't help but like and respect this guy. A good role model for all men.
  • I really enjoy his down to earth and intelligent personality.
