The 2024 Democratic National Convention - August 19th thru 22nd in Chicago.

Don’t be nervous. lol.

Donald the doomslinger is trying to figure out how to get out of the debate now.

It was great acceptance speech when not viewed through tangerine colored glasses.
She looked very comfortable and confident.
Hope 45 has retirement plans squared away.

Independent analyst Derek Hunter accurately observed...

Harris still does not seem ready to be the Democratic Party’s nominee, let alone president. She is an empty pantsuit, basking in the glow of positive media coverage and unburdened by accountability.

Her acceptance speech confirmed that.

Harris has now officially accepted the Democratic Party’s nomination. Her nomination was “historic,” as liberals like to say, but not because of her ethnicity.

Rather, she is the first nominee of either party who did not have to secure a single vote in the primaries. She is “historic” in that it is highly unlikely that she could have secured that nomination, had there been any sort of competition for the job.

In keeping with how VP Harris got the nomination, her acceptance speech was all sizzle and no steak. It will be billed as containing her “vision” for America, but it contained no such thing.

It wasn’t much different from the stump speech she’s been reading off the teleprompter since Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Democratic Party power elite knifed Biden last month and tossed his body into the dumpster earlier this week.

With the convention "bump" already behind her, Kamala will resume falling further behind in the all-important Electoral College poll: www.realclearpolling.com...

You already confessed you didn’t watch.
Seems you are allowing others to make up your mind for
You!
The article reads like it was written before the speech was given.

Silly boy.

Trump's definitely scared. He had like 50 posts during Harris' speech and called into whatever show would take his call. Although he seemed to forget how his phone worked since he kept pushing buttons.

He also clearly thinks he's losing in Georgia since he now only has good things to say about Gov. Kemp after spending weeks insulting him and his wife.

Now that the curated part is over comes the hard part for the Harris campaign. Their track record todate of not supplying policy positions and keeping Harris locked away will need to come to an end if they want to put daylight between them and the Trump campaign.... it's not good to be neck and neck with your opponent; especially when he's a 100% known quantity and your riding a wave of irrational exuberance.

‘The honeymoon’s inevitably going to end’: Harris dives into a critical stretch of the election

After a boisterous four days in Chicago, the vice president faces a series of looming tests: her first sit-down media interview that she said would come by the end of the month, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of attack ads from her opponent and, perhaps most importantly, her Sept. 10 debate with former President Donald Trump.

For all the newfound enthusiasm around Harris, who has revived her party’s fading White House hopes, and all her strategists’ optimism about her campaign’s superior infrastructure and organization, Democrats recognize that the election remains far too close for comfort.

“I’ve been telling Democrats everywhere I go this week: Don’t get high on your own supply and think everyone is as energetic as you are,” said Rep. Elissa Slotkin, the Democrats’ Senate nominee in Michigan. “If you do, you obviously haven’t been to a swing state in awhile.”

And as an added bonus; what Democrats really think about swing voters...

A number of Democrats disagree that Harris needs to better define her policy positions, asserting that swing voters aren’t likely to make their decisions based on fully developed policy platforms.

Democrats think swing voters don't care about policy platforms; which explains why the Harris campaign hasn't been putting any meaningful effort into having any ... they are trying to run a high-school popularity contest... the Democrats are the "Mean Girls" ... that actually explains a lot.

It was feel good platitudes without any substance and no explanation on how to make the feel good platitudes actually work.

If you are going for feelings and getting votes ... she did it right.

If you were going for grown up substance ... she failed.

She presented a more substantive policy position than Trump has been able to articulate. Remember the other day he was asked what his plan was to tackle inflation and his response was that he'll have people look into it and come up with solutions? It's his healthcare plan all over again.

Disagree.

Feel good platitudes.
Personal stories ... who the hell cares ... I care about what effects me, POLICY!
Lots of 'free stuff' promised without acknowledging who would be paying for it.

Trump is no prize.
He bloviates, goes off topic, rambles ... but his policy is clear.
Hers ... all platitude, all free stuff promises, and no acknowledgement of who is paying.

What's Trump's policy to tackle inflation?

So the Beyoncé thing was a typical hoax. Sure made Kamala look good. 🤣🤣

Kamala stuck to script. Promised all those things Democrats have failed to do since Jan 2021 and she is still part of. 😃

Democrats already passed legislation that they claimed to be inflation solutions. Those are all failing as we now know from the liar fake jobs and mass price skyrocketing 😀

🤣🤣🤣🤣 get atta here. They're faking it like the jobs bullsh1t 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Inflation is still multiplying like 8 rabbits instead of 10 rabbits. An old BS trick like Democrats are using is exposed. 😃

Clearly the Democrats put on a better show - no denying that.
No riots and just small protests.
The rumors of Taylor Swift helped with the ratings.
So yeah, the people who handled the convention did an amazing job

But.........................
Kamala will have to be interviewed sometime.

Do I think the convention made anyone switch parties - probably not.

THAT is the reality.

That is soo true, Kamala got to be in the position she is in within the democrat party without a single vote.

No due process at all, biden was ousted and she was prop without voters say soo.

And I agree she is not presidential candidate in any way or form, she does not have the skills.

But that is what democrat voters are stuck with, they will vote because of the party, no because her doing a job.

As we have learned with incapacitated Joe, during his presidency, he was not the one running the nation, is obvious that under the democrat's regime, America have some shady entities no chosen by the people running America. These entities have their own agenda and we the people are not part of it.

With kamala or without kamala or biden the job has to be finished that is an omen I rather do not want to contemplate for too long.

Because soo far that have been disastrous to our nation.

And what's Trump's plan to deal with that?

It's been posted many times and this thread is about Harris. I'm not going off topic. Harris gave no policy, no explanations of the policies as to how they would work. Just platitudes. The CON-vention was all about feelings instead of substance. It'll get votes, because the lemmings will suck it up and be willingly led by the nose to their own destruction.

and what is Harris' plan to deal with that? Failed socialism?
And why isn't it already implemented, since she's been in office 4 years?
The thread is about her. Not Trump.
His plans for the economy have already been posted on threads about him.
I'm not going off topic.

I try to understand why you keep posting that Trump is scare, a man that had an attempt on his life and was persecuted and harassed for years is no longer afraid of anything, Kamala is no contender, she is pawn.

You know that, but you have an agenda to do. right?
