Sorry for the late post, had a bunch of stuff going on today!
That’s a wrap for this cycle! Thanks for taking part everybody! See you in 2028! ;)
Democrats name their favorite Kamala policies at the DNC
“She’s not Trump. Who needs policy?”
Massachusetts stronk.
Don Lemon says George W. Bush might be a speaker tonight.
Jesus, can you imagine?
I mean, it would be on brand for the Dems. They’ve already forgiven all his war crimes and atrocious presidency.
Its about creating permission structures for Republicans who don’t recognize their party to defect with their vote.
You don’t have to condone dude A to let him tell the right audience that dude B is way bad.
Dems shifting to the right? The ratchet effect.
Thanks for self-identifying. Saved me some time.
Glad to catch it now considering the BS that account pushes…
Fighting to stop genocide is BS?
Wow fuck all those people! She hugged someone!
They are so bad! You make such a point! She’s so shitty because of that photo! [BRANDED!]
Dare we say “mission accomplished” despite the fact that it’s totally off and has nothing to to do with anything? How far off the point is necessary?
How many photos do you need to keep up the appearance of being so far off?
Why Do Democrats Keep Embracing George W. Bush?
Lest we forget, Bush was an incredibly divisive president. He brought the country together for a fleeting moment after 9/11—then promptly frittered away all that goodwill by trusting his stupid gut and going his own way. He won reelection by slandering his war-hero opponent and stoking conservative fears about gay marriage. His line about being “a uniter, not a divider” was a long-standing joke. And his successor—who, for better and often for worse, seemed to genuinely believe in the ideal of national unity—rode a wave of anti-Bush fervor into the White House.

So bush is bad and you keep shitting on democrats why?
You’re getting pitiful at this point.
EDIT to add this is pitiful shit and you should feel pitiful.
You’re defending GWB?
They’re defending GWB.
Hell no! I’m attacking your shitty logic based off a photo! You really are that dense?
How dense do you have to be to see that photo as evidence of anything?
hope so; harris getting supported by all of the living former (and present) presidents over trump would be quite the feat. some people in the thread need to understand not everything is for them; it’s about appealing to moderates and potential republican voters too.
Beyonce performing tonight?https://x.com/Phil_Lewis_/status/1826729624924987431
Edit: Beyonce and Jay-Z showed up at the 2016 Get Out The Vote concert so definitely a possibility.

Great job by Madam Vice President soon to be President.
She killed it! That was spectacular!
The only thing progressive about the speech was the abortion issue. She kept talking about war, the most lethal military on the planet, went right wing on the border issue, etc.
Well rebel progressive scum, take comfort in the fact that she promised a “new way forward” which I assume no more of Bidens “red lines” on the war crimes we participate in that are ignored when they are crossed, and make no mistake, Henceforrth we will have “magenta lines” that we will all be very consternated at. She will have a new, stronger, grumpier way of readng Netenyahu the riot act! she might carry the pallets of bombs herself and slam them down meaningfully as they are delivered. (I mean, not too hard, we dont want the donors to notice) Watch out! Things are changing! Kamala knows us and will be the voice for *ALL Americans! Not just the donors!
(*rules and restrictions apply. )
/s
Seriously though, about 60% of the US doesnt support Israels actions in this war and consider war crimes a top tier issue. the dems ignore that at their peril. Trump is not so far behind and they are rolling the dice on something that should be a slam dunk.
I like how the democrats are taking back our flag, USA chants, and the idea of freedom.
Fuck those MAGA assholes. We need to take back the snek flag, too.
I want a red hat with white Harris/Walz text on it.
Those MAGA fuckers dont own red hats either!
not just that; democrats are taking back morning in america.
Holy shit! Luke Skywalker is in the house!!
They give a Republican a platform to speak by not the actual Uncommitted delegates who have a right to be there.
This has been a pretty remarkable piece of marketing, and communication of Democratic ideals from a party who has seemed to struggle with that pretty much as far back as I can remember.
I watched the entire DNC, all 4 nights. I didn’t explicitly mean to, but it was so engrossing and informative. The old guard has finally passed the torch and there were so many killer moments that my enthusiasm has surpassed even Obama 08 levels. I am signing up to do some phone banking at least. I’ve not done it before but the website said they will train us so I’m stepping out of my comfort zone. I’m in a red state but nothing is impossible unless we just don’t try.
I did phone banking for Obama and it was… interesting. We’re a vote by mail state and they had us calling the reddest part of the state after the mailing deadline to remind people “Hey, it’s too late to mail your ballot, if you still want to vote, we can tell you where your local drop off location is.”
People were REALLY angry! Legally, we had to open with “I’m calling on behalf of the Barack Obama campaign…”
“I AINT VOTIN’ FOR OBAMA!”
“That’s fine, that’s not why I’m calling. It looks like you haven’t turned in your ballot yet and we just wanted to remind you, if you still want to vote, it’s too late to mail it. Do you need a list of ballot drop off locations?”
“Oh.”
Harris promises the “most lethal” military on earth, to chants of “USA! USA!”
Jesus.
Babe, wake up. We’re going to war.
What she’s doing is disabling all of Trump’s talking points.
Kamala is weak on the military. Yeah no.
Kamala wants to defund the police. Nope.
Kamala wants an open border. Um, actually…He’s got nothing he can attack her with, because the remaining issues, like Israel, he’s actually worse on.
This speech was a strategic takedown of everything Trump would or could say, which leaves him with:
