The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) announced on October 8 that the second presidential debate,scheduled for October 15 in Miami that this fight will not be an easy one for Trump to win. "We saw this coming, and it’s not a surprise," Keisling said. "But the Trump administration is a mess. They take on the people they perceive as the weakest first. I don’t think they understand how strong we are."Related: And this is what Maitreyi is doing for brown girls everywhere, and one reason why I’m so excited to have her on this cover: she’s allowing us to see ourselves in a way that hasn’t really been depicted before. The burden of representation is not an easy one; there’s a lot of unrealistic and unfair pressure to be wholly inclusive when that’s just not possible, given the wide range of South Asian identities and experiences out there (something that applies to all communities). But Maitreyi shoulders that burden with aplomb and thoughtful awareness, something that comes through clearly in our cover story, written by Aamina Khan, a Pakistani American writer. One of my favorite quotes from Maitreyi in the interview: “We can't just keep relying on Mindy Kaling to keep making all these shows. I want her to keep making more. But I need more people with her.” Betty doesn’t seem all that worried about it (though I am — worried about Kevin’s broken heart!), though she does head to the Blue & Gold office…on a weekend…where Veronica shows up with breakfast. Betty giggles and says, “the last time you brought me baked goods was because you kissed Archie.” Veronica just looks slightly uncomfortable and changes the subject. She tells Betty about the deal her dad and Jughead’s dad had concerning the drive-in, and that she wants to help with Betty’s investigation. And when she gets home, there’s a package waiting for her: a new strand of pearls, with a thank you note from daddy dearest.
