Democratic Convention - who is watching?

[feralkid]

Oh great, another member of the Joe Biden cult. Just what we need.

It almost seemed like that was tonight's actual theme at the DNC.

As it should be. The man defeated fascism. Got more done with less compared to most other presidents in our lifetimes. Then had the humility and honor to step down when it became apparent that there might be a better option. Zero Republicans and probably not many other Democrats would have done the same in his shoes.

They put Hillary on stage? Bad choice for a party that is supposed to be looking forward. I think Hillary would have been okay as President but she is the past.

Younger than Trump, she can't be that far past.

I see the WaPo fact checkers are really losing the plot here. Saw a few other examples that were just made you go "really!?" (In the incredulous way). After the fire hose of lies at the RNC, it's now important that we balance our fact checking. Facts and context be damned.

Jill Stein - a cicada of a candidate. Appearing a few months every few years to make some noise and try and screw us all by splitting the electorate.

 

[Stokely]

F her, and f the "Green Party". All they did was help elect the absolute worst-for-the-environment party.

Trump went apeshit on rolling back environmental protections, especially those put in by that "Hussein" guy

Don’t forget the current court who will roll back even more for potentially decades.

Should be posted in the F this guy thread too.

Then why the hell did you bother watching?

Because these loony tunes run our country lmao

What a weird post

You're constantly saying dumb shit, congrats! <3

You are not going to be able to turn the weird thing around. Not while the other side are literally waving pots of their candidates cum around.

I know, we're in bizarro world now.

Weird projection on your part but ok you do you.

People who can remember where they were and what they were doing when they heard that McKinley had been shot shouldn't be in modern politics.

Nobody mentioning the tan suit?

Kamala Harris wore a tan suit to day one of the DNC – what does it mean?

Some argued the suit was actually camel, while others online speculated Harris was trolling Republicans – or simply wearing her off duty suit

www.theguardian.com

(I only understood that article because of hearing about that suit so often on here).

It was amazing the things that republicans got (really, really) upset about (wrong kind of mustard, wrong colour suit, wrong colour president...) and the things that they are absolutely fine about on their side!

 

[VashHT]

Did anyone see the pathetic right wing trolls going around asking idiotic questions and getting shut down? Just straight up asking stupid shit like walking up to women and asking them how many abortions they had today. Compare that with people like Klepper asking people real questions and being polite and letting them twist themselves into knots.

I watched Biden's speech, but that was all

 

[MrSquished]

Warnock was great. I would put that on if I wanted to watch highlights.

Charles Booker (@booker4ky) on Threads

If you don’t watch anything else tonight, please watch this. Thank you, Senator.

I watched most of Biden's soeech as well as Hillary's speech on a news feed. I thought Joe did a GREAT job. Hillary came across like she was trying to sell a point..."WOMAN PRESIDENT!" but overall, she did dam ed good. I still think she'd have been a much better president than the orange plague we got instead.

LoL. So true.

Got to give the factions their bones.

Will the Hillary hate never end? Wow.

Will the Hillary hate never end? Wow.

That wasn't hate, just facts. There are different factions, they all need recognized.

His daughter Ashley was superb in setting the table for POTUS.

I'll be honest, Joe Biden never truly resonated with me on an emotional level; but it was awesome to hear that crowd chanting "We love Joe."

Will the Hillary hate never end? Wow.

That'll be a nope.

There was a bit of that on the radio as I was driving to work. He sounded great.

 

[balloonshark]

AOC had a great speech. She's a natural.

 

[MrSquished]

She was great. In 2018 she was at a sit-in in Pelosi's office. Six years later she is a prime-time speaker at the DNC. I see her going places.

 

[iRONic]

Im way more sleepier than Sleepy Joe right now.

Came here to post the same thing about last nights speech.
