Part V -The Democratic National Convention

The Chicks are singing the National Anthem

So who's this mysterious "special guest" that's supposed to show up??

I'm so curious!

Mike Pence, Rose

In such close proximity to the homosexualists?

Mother would NEVER allow THAT, r3.

I’d be happy to never hear from Bill Clinton or Oprah again.

GWB?

What time is Adam Kinzinger on?

I want to see his tattoo.

And his butt shot.

GWB is persona non grata in both parties, especially the Democratic party. His endorsement would be a negative.

I'm a married man, R7 you CUNT!

Glen Powell?

Wow, Kinzinger's wife sure did get marry up in the looks department.

I doubt if the DNC's idea of "special guest" is the same as mine. I have been totally unimpressed with their "hosts" so far (other than Ana Navarro or whatever her name is - she could actually speak to what Democrats are running against). And Keenan Thompson was just...no.

If it's not a big Republican like Romney, it's going to be Beyonce or Taylor Swift.

Here is what the insider said exactly, not that there's much here to parse:

[quote]"I’ve been sworn to secrecy, but you don’t want to miss the DNC tonight. If you thought the Oprah surprise was big, just wait."

But still -- bigger than Oprah seems to me to imply celebrity, not some dumb Republican.

My husband's MAGA sister told him she's been watching the DNC, but it in no way has it swayed her to not vote for Trump. She also said she thought the men (Obama, Walz, Emhoff. etc) are all cucks because they let the wives have more power and they should be subservient to their husbands.

She's such a delight.

But Oprah wasnt exactly a surprise, we all knew she was speaking.

And speaking of Oprah, I used to like her -- I wasnt a huge fan who watched her show every day, but I liked her. But her fucking "JOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" etc were really fucking annoying.

Queen Camilla?

r15, send her a poisoned fruitcake

It's Ivana Trump's corpse!

Does she have a husband r15? Is she subservient to him? If either answer is no, denounce her to the Village Elders!

[quote] But still -- bigger than Oprah seems to me to imply celebrity, not some dumb Republican.

It's gotta be Taylor Swift.

She's the only one who would bring this much hype.

It's me!

some football player?

Oprah wasn't a surprise, just a disappointment. But she delivered a few wine mom votes, I guess.

She had a radical transformation from small town Ohio school teacher to retired Floridian Trumper a few years ago when she met her MAGAt husband. We don't understand it and i don't know why my husband still talks to her.

The "surprise" is obviously going to be Beyonce since her song is Kamala's theme.

I think it was one of these DNC threads where someone posted a screenshot of Flightracker showing Taylor's private jet flighpath from Europe to Chicago last night.

Nobody wants to see Beyonce's fat, old ass R26.

She's pushing 50 and over weight.

Blech.

[quote] But still -- bigger than Oprah seems to me to imply celebrity, not some dumb Republican.

Maybe they meant physically bigger.

[quote] I think it was one of these DNC threads where someone posted a screenshot of Flightracker showing Taylor's private jet flighpath from Europe to Chicago last night.

Like they do with Santa Claus on Christmas Eve???

r29 = Dump

Short and sweet and powerful and inspiring is the mantra for the best speeches at this and every convention.

Let's hope Kamala takes note and doesn't ramble on. 30 minutes max would be the most productive and influential.

Melania?

Well, neither do I and I didn't want to see any of the other musical acts they had either, R29. But it's gotta be her.

I don't know, I have a feeling it won't be Beyonce or Swift, that would really take the spotlight away from Kamala on her special, historic night.

Bill Clinton and Nancy Pelosi put me to sleep last night. Walz and Buttigieg were definitely the best speakers of the night.

R14 is more likely correct. But it won’t be Taylor or Beyonce as either would pull focus from the main event. It is someone who will excite folks, but not detract from the message that Kamala is sending.

Springsteen doesn’t seem a good fit for her night. I doubt Jimmy is on any shaped to be rolled out, based on how he looked at his wife’s service.

[quote] Let's hope Kamala takes note and doesn't ramble on. 30 minutes max would be the most productive and influential.

Agreed R33.

Hillary's acceptance speech in 2016 lasted over an hour!

[quote] I doubt Jimmy is on any shaped to be rolled out

Maybe Lady Gaga will roll out Liza like she did at the Oscars.

Keep it tight and snappy, people!

Pickles Bush?

It's going to be Beyonce and Taylor Swift singing a duet of Dancing Queen.

Oh, you laugh, but mark my wordsch.

A really big star wouldn't take any attention away from Kamala, I don't think. I think it would just enhance her appearance. And Trump would be so jealous.

But then the only one *I* would be impressed with is Taylor Swift and it's not going to be her. It would be great if Trump pissed her off so much by using fake images of her and implying she'd endorsed him that she decided to endorse Kamala in person though.

Didn’t Marcia Fudge speak already?

Not the most impressive lineup of speakers, other than Kamala of course. Surprised they are featuring Kinzinger right behind Kamala; let's face it he was only a Representative for a couple of terms.

It's going to be LIZA.

Dolly Parton?

Swift isn't scheduled to perform again until October, FWIW.

Pretty sure it's Charlene.

A really big star wouldn't take any attention away from Kamala, I don't think.

Ok, then.

I honestly hope there isn't some big celebrity there to steal Kamala's thunder. This is her night.

Don't worry. Amy Klobuchar will be backstage with a big hook.

[quote] But still -- bigger than Oprah seems to me to imply celebrity, not some dumb Republican.

[quote] Maybe they meant physically bigger.

Well, hey, I fulfill both roles!

Marla Maples will sing I'll Plant My Own Tree.

Using 9 to 5 for the the TN role call when they had an embarrassment of ground breaking black artists to choose from did make me go hmmm A subtle clue?

Matthew Gertz @MattGertz The secret DNC guest is the late, great, Dr. Hannibal Lecter.

Greta Thunberg?

R56 ypu mean aside from Dolly Parton being universally beloved by all generations, races, etc?

Dolly has made it clear she keeps her political beliefs to herself, which is smart.

R57, it actually would've been funny had they brought on Anthony Hopkins to endorse Kamala.

Kitara Ravache doing a fabulous lip-sync!

Maybe it is Taylor Swift. Kamala is playing the long game -whatever it takes to win the White House. She's doing a superlative job.

Betty Boo

Going overtime may not matter in digital age:

Jabbawockeez will perform interpretive dance honoring the victims of mass shootings in the US from 1999 to present.

R41 I'm going to schedule my bathroom break during Elizabeth Warren.

[quote]Using 9 to 5 for the the TN role call when they had an embarrassment of ground breaking black artists to choose from did make me go hmmm A subtle clue?

DJ Cassidy said that he wanted a variety of artists represented ( don't you think there were enough black artists represented?) . If he really wanted a better intro song to represent Tennessee, he should have played " Rocky Top," which would have stirred up the crowd much more.

The special surprise guest will be the Cockgobbler.

Dolly might have allowed them to use it, but she’d never appear. While I’m reasonably sure she’s on the liberal end of things, and I am damned sure that even if she’s conservative, she would be a never-Trumper, but actually endorsing a candidate is bridge too far for her.

That said, if she was ever going to do it, this is the time.

I don't really care who the guest is -as long as they bring some new voters to our side. Winning is everything.

And given how Joe Biden set aside his ego for the good of the country, Kamala should get whomever will bring in votes, with no worries about being overshadowed.

It'll be Beyonce and Taylor in a "Get Happy" and Happy Days Are Here Again" duet.

I don't really believe that.

I just wanted to jump in on the outrageous celebrity appearances predictions bandwagon.

I hope the Tennessee Three walk out onstage holding hands in their air.

'That said, if she was ever going to do it, this is the time.' - that's my thought. She's an unlikely one but it certainly would blow the roof off.

^^^^.

R65 is MY LIFE. I love you. ROTFLMAO

I hope it is Beyoncé or Taylor because it will make the pugs implode.

DL fave Sydney Sweeney and her giant bazoomas will be the surprise.

George Clooney?

Clooney? They would throw tomatoes at him.

Beyoncé, Taylor and Madonna recreating that famous kiss from the VMA Awards.

The cast of Abbott Elementary should have a little skit. It would have been cute

Tonight’s surprise guest is Jimmy Carter.

^ as part of a chorus line.

[quote] ^ as part of a chorus line.

Maybe something like this?

Ivanka

I can't wait to see P!NK sling-shotting through the air over all those joyful voters!

It’s Beyoncé. They let it slip on msnbc.

It's really getting to the #1 snowflake in the country.

We were talking about how Jake Tapper let JD Vance run rough roughshod all over the place, but I enjoyed the 1 2 punch of him asking about RFK Jr's new roll in the campaign followed immediately by an ominous sounding "Okay, safe travels".

[quote] It’s Beyoncé. They let it slip on msnbc.

Ugh.

*sound of balloon deflating*

She's tired.

Going personal in the debate? Yes, please. Please let out every sexist and racist insult possible. The visual of a competent woman answering articulately while that big bully rants and raves and all but calls her the c word and the n word will be a gift.

I'm been watching MSNBC all afternoon, when did they let it slip?

Anthony Hopkins as Lecter will be wheeled across the stage saying he endorses Trump's liver with a lovely Merlot. That a lily liver needs a chewy red.

And that is how I would write a surprise guest.

About 20 mins on Nicole’s show. Forget the person’s name who said it, but she was like “it’s all just a guess”

Morning Joe: "This is a new Democratic Party"

Coach and Doug will be backing Bey on Single Ladies.

Something we haven't heard is, "WHO ORGANIZED THIS CONVENTION?"

It is so well run, and like Joe said at R96, everything has just been set up so nicely, night after night after night.

From the themes to the speakers to the music.

This convention has run so seamlessly.

And unlike the Convention Chairs who would grandstand for themselves in the past, I don't even know who the current Chair of the Democratic Party is right now!

But surely, they're responsible for this wonderful convention.

I have the hots for Hakeem Jeffries

Oof, he’s cute

The Senatrice gets a tingling sensation in her pussy when Jeffries speaks to her in a stern manner.

R41, no Gavin??

Somebody who works at the WH tweeted an icon of a bee.

I'm just catching up with last night. I just watched Amanda Gorman who is the youngest inaugural poet in U.S. history, It's fair to say that personality-wise. She definitely peaked in 8th grade and has decided to stay there.

[quote] Somebody who works at the WH tweeted an icon of a bee.

So it's Marie Osmond?

r98 I saw the answer to that on Twitter:

"Hat’s off to the television producer of the Democratic National Convention, Ricky Kirshner

Even if you don’t recognize his name, you’ve probably already seen his work at a little event called the Super Bowl."

OMFG! They've resurrected Bea Arthur! Clearly going after the eldergay vote.

Al Sharpton is speaking tonight. Ugh.

I can assure everyone it is NOT Taylor Swift. My friend's brother-in-law works security detail at her home in Watch Hill, RI - and he was called in last night because her plane had landed. He is due on detail for the next seven nights, while Taylor stays at home.

Here is the bee emoji tweet, from Emmy Ruiz, the White House Political Director:

[quote] "Hats off to the television producer of the Democratic National Convention, Ricky Kirshner

[quote] Even if you don’t recognize his name, you’ve probably already seen his work at a little event called the "Super Bowl."

Thank you, R105.

The guy is a freakin' genius.

When you need a job done right, you MUST call in a professional.

I've had enough of Beyonce to last a lifetime.

Get some new acts out there, to promote Democrats.

Beyonce is SO 2008.

R64 - it doesn't matter. All these fools squawking about the late nights (Meggy McCain for instance) are showing their age and/or how out-of-touch or resistant they are about media and entertainment tech. A good chunk of the younger generations (and those in the older generations who don't bemoan changing times and still keep up) will watch what they want the next day or in the following days. They can choose their moments instead of sitting through the entire convention. How is this concept difficult for others to grasp?

The bee tweet--It's Ruth Buzzi!

I personally think it will be fitting with the house party theme that they've cultivated all week, for Beyonce to show up, and I think if handled right it won't overshadow Kamala. She just performs the "Freedom" song and then Kamala comes out, Beyonce exit stage right. It would get the crowd GOING and I'm not even a Beyonce fan.

Ben Ingman is the sexy former student of Walz who gave the speech after Amy K. He said Walz helped pull him out of a snowbank many times - I would like to fuck that Ben Ingam in a snowbank. What a sexy man.

Hakeem Jeffries met with Willie Geist on Morning Joe.

He did a great job.

Me too, R115!

R114 It would be more of a surprise if a hologram of George Michael took the stage and sang his song "Freedom".

I'd prefer if it was Maya Rudolph as Beyonce.

[quote]I personally think it will be fitting with the house party theme that they've cultivated all week, for Beyonce to show up, and I think if handled right it won't overshadow Kamala.

I agree with this. Taylor Swift isn't exactly somber, but if they're keeping this vibe going, it points to Beyonce way more than Taylor.

As an aside, I will likely never forgive Joe Scarborough for the free ride he gave Trump in 2015-16, but I've got to say, he's been one of the only people on MSNBC who's been even-handed with their coverage of the Democrats (Biden included) this entire time. I watched some of his commentary, and it's clear he's impressed by all of this. It's nice.

To the person on Part IV who responded to my "Well, maybe I missed a lot" (re: praise for Biden specifics) with "Yeah": I've essentially watched every minute, mostly on C-Span because the MSNBC team likes to hear their own voices. I said what I said thinking maybe I would get something SPECIFIC in reply. But alas; whoever did reply offered only hot air.

I just don't understand some of the K/W strategy.

Why stress "joy," a short-lived emotion at best, lasting as long as tonight's balloons? Why not "comfort," or, yes, "hope"? Even "relief" seems more what people want: from crippling medical bills; from crushing usurious student loans; from pandemics; from the destruction of rights; from homelessness....you get the picture.

For another thing, what would be harmful about some slogan about "Continue the Good Fight"? "Build the Legacy"? (Hey, I don't get paid to think of these things.) The only reason for NOT making this Biden-->Harris continuation a theme is to distance the ticket from the current Administration, maybe to ignore inflation? IDK. I just know I'm not copacetic with it.

But they didn't ask me.

If there is any "Surprise Guest" tonight pray that it is not President Carter. God love him always, but no. Taylor Swift would be awesome, put those fake "Swifties for Trump" in their place. Please no Beyonce! She's too identified with the Obamas, for one thing. But in any case, we've got Pink signed up, so the "Famous Female Pop Star" slot is filled.

Maybe it'll be Joe Biden! 😈

[quote] Get some new acts out there, to promote Democrats. Beyonce is SO 2008.

Hey, it could be Lee Greenwood and Kid Rock. Quit yer bitching!

There's video of Pink with the Chicks rehearsing her song "What About Us."

Shit, even when they're only giving about 60% because they're saving it for tonight...it's powerful.

It’s Joan Rivers and she’ll be selling her bee pins afterwards in the lobby.

If she voted for Dump when she was dead, she came come to this!!

The Twitter is saying the band is practising Beyonce songs. I don't think they're gonna troll people on this. Nor do I think it's particularly surprising Beyonce would appear. I would guess she sings right before Harris accepts. They want viewers. They want to troll Trump.

Meantime, enjoy the fuck out of this... it is kind of hilarious.

Everyone, Taylor Swift will not be at the DNC tonight. How do I know for sure ?

My friend's brother-in-law works security for Taylor when she's home in Watch Hill (RI). He was called in late last night, as her plane had landed, and he's working each night on the property (with dozens of others) through early next week. Unless she 'zooms in', she will not be in Chicago at the DNC.

Bee emoji. No, it's not Joan from the grave. It's Melissa. After all, her name means honeybee.

Please NOT BeeYonsay.

Ratings for Night 3:

R15, So you're saying your sister-in-law, by definition a woman, advocates for women's subservience to men? That's not ringing the credibility bell with me. But it was a way for you to post "her" "cuck" noise....

Guys, I was the DNC volunteer that posted in one of the earlier threads--IT'S BEYONCE. One of the housing liason queens who was involved in handling her accommodations let it slip on Sunday and it spread like wildfire. I can see NO other reason for her to be staying in Chicago right now or for the DNC to be overseeing her hotel accommodations unless she was performing.

Love the “Rose” comment about Marie Osmond. But seriously a bee 🐝 could mean Romney.

A word about “Joy” - many Christians understand it to mean a deep seated feeling of well-being regardless of circumstances. It is contrasted with happiness which is temporary and situational.

A reminder that Ann Coulter say’s outrageous things because that’s how she makes money and her lifestyle exceeds her income.

This photo made me a little misty eyed. Kamala sitting backstage watching Tim speak. She looks so proud of him. They make politics looks so wholesome even though they both busted some balls to get where they are.

R130 your belief in my credibility is none of my business.

Indian American voters weigh in on the 2024 race....

"Lotus for POTUS"

Kamala means Lotus.

Cute.

I'm re-playing Walz speech - full of emotion, energy, compassion and love. Love for his country, his family, and public service. I could listen to him all night. They didn't need other speakers.

What a difference between his speech and JD Vance's. What a smart choice Kamala made.

Kamala's brother in law makes 10 million per year. He's fine af too. Mia married well!

I'm glad Elissa Slotkin is speaking. She's very intelligent, but is also down to earth. She is future POTUS material.

^ Peppermint Patty POTUS!

New Rule: Adam Kinzinger must always speak shirtless.

[quote] Adam Kinzinger must always speak shirtless

As long as he hasn't acquired a dad-bod that'll take the focus off his butterface.

Tim Walz is proof that dad-bods can be sexy.

There's nothing wrong with his face, R141. You must be blind.

I’m going to try and watch the whole thing. I’m going to cut out to get a workout in a bit, but I just want to watch history.

Best convention ever.

Lizzo!

And the high stepping.

We're on!

[quote]Why stress "joy," a short-lived emotion at best

Damn, what a bitter old queen.

And your suggestions for slogans? What are you? Trapped in the 80s. All that shit is tired.

Who's narrating this film? He sounds familiar, like Morgan Freeman, but not quite.

[quote] ^ Peppermint Patty POTUS!

Slotkin should get on a Ozempic. I guess the weight gain started after she got out of the CIA.

LIVE with no commentary!!

It’s sort of like Obama. We’re voting for a truly good human.

Fixed It

Are we gonna get the Macarena? If so, NOW is the time, if only the DJ has the courage!!

A lot of rhythmically challenged people in the audience...

The white man's overbite is unifying the party!

Why do speakers yell?

Fuck it. Let's just have Kinzinger on the stage, fully nude. We'll parade Republicans across the stage and see which ones spring a boner.

They have played "Walking on Sunshine" as the walk out music A LOT these past four nights. And don't it feel good.

"Former HUD Secretary"? Why did Marcia step down?

Ted Lieu is goofy, but he came out swinging.

Tammy Baldwin needs a hair makeover.

I can't believe no one has mentioned the obligatory Morgan Freeman narration of the short Kamala film about a half hour ago

WHET Stacey Abrams? Is it odd that she doesn't seem involved in the DNC? Or have I missed her?

I'm salivating in anticipation over Colin Allred's appearance tonight! Anyone else?

Was that DL fave Cathy Mitchell in the SS/Medicare video?!

The speeches seem tightly timed tonight.

FINALLY! THANK YOU, Tammy Baldwin!

After 3-1/2 days filled with "What about the CHILDREN!!!" at last someone mentioned caregivers for elderly loved ones.

We who do it all day, every day feel so fucking... INVISIBLE.

That message needs to be on prime time every bit as much as bearing and rearing children. We caregivers for elders get NO tax break, no subsidy, no nothing.

And honestly it makes me FURIOUS.

The Dems certainly have the moves.

MAJA Make America Joyous Again

Leonardo is cute! I'm not usually a fan of a gap in the teeth, but it's good on him <3.

R150 THANK YOU for that link. I've been so frustrated with MSNBC and CNN (and even PBS!) and all their talking heads.

R173: Most welcome. Welcome to the Pundit Free Zone!

I'm watching it on NBC Chicago—also completely pundit-free, but it seems to be a minute behind the link at R150 (and also doesn't have the subtitles, which I find distracting).

Bob Casey talks like Steve Martin. Or maybe it's David Letterman.

I can’t believe how emotional I am at this. I’ve been having a rough time, but there’s something about this that makes me think things are going to be okay, both for the country and for me.

The best thing I ever read about Michelle Obama said “she has that thing like Mr Rogers where she’s talking to you, and telling you that you matter, and you believe her.” Kamala gives me a lot of this energy.

Thank you, Joe Biden. Thank you.

R175: My link on YouTube is directly from the Democratic Convention account. So I think it's the most up to the minute feed.

LIZ WARREN!!! The Senator Professor!!! YES!!!

I think Bob Casey is a sexy guy, in his category. But shut up and fuck.

I loves me some Lizzy. I'm so sad she didn't get to be the first woman president. She would have been a great one.

Did Liz Warren pay for this ovation? Jesus.

Huge standing o for Elizabeth Warren

They are loving Liz Warren. Her ovation lasted longer than Casey’s speech.

Oh, no, r180. Justin Pearson was so good during Tennessee's roll call.

Not a fan of Warren. But I'm glad she's supporting the Harris/Walz ticket.

[quote]WHET Stacey Abrams? Is it odd that she doesn't seem involved in the DNC? Or have I missed her?

She's been hanging around the convention; maybe she'll speak tonight.

I always thought Warren should be running some great agency or department, maybe Treasury. She's not really a politician, although she did get to be Senator. But she would be ideal to take on some big complicated agency and make it work.

I love Elizabeth! The tears in the eyes got me.

Curious what happens today. I enjoyed the Walz stuff yesterday a lot. All the football talk though...I thought the delegates were all going to start shotgunning beers or something.

She went there!

Omg soooo thrilled the crowd gave Warren the reception she so deserved!

What's the female version of a "mensch"? Well, she's it.

Warren couch reference FTW!

If they didn’t need every vote in the Senate, Biden would have appointed her to Treasury.

Damn, go Liz!

R19, Bob Casey and Katherine Clark are both speaking tonight. They pushed for better cover for elder care in the American Families Plan. But Republicans.

Zing-I wouldn’t trust those guys to move my couch!

Liz makes a couch joke!

I absolutely love that there are so many black and other nonwhite people here at the convention. It makes me feel such unity and pride to be a Democrat. And so happy that finally there's good representation of people everyone can look up to.

[bold]I wouldn’t trust those guys to move my couch! 😂😂😂😂

Joy Reid's on the floor of the convention and said Warren's loud, sustained, rapturous reception was on par with that of Bill Clinton and Tim Walz.

The crowd looks more like America! There's cute guys too.

Forgive me for being a dum dum but who are the squares with laptops behind the DJ tonight? Are they doing the PBS thing and taking pledges?

Watching the crowd dance and having a great time really makes me wish I was there!!!!

More couch jokes! I love how this ridiculous, blatantly made-up story about Vance destroyed him almost before he hit the stage.

Knowa tweeted that Rishi Sunak is there! Maybe he is the big surprise.

"We do not retreat. We are the damn UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. WE LEAD!"

Elissa Slotkin killed it.

Just donated to Elissa!

Agree, R207

These speeches are moving quickly. They are making sure Kamala gives her speech during primetime.

Awwwwww, did you see the old white VFW man whispering to the old black VFW man? While former Ranger Rep. Crow spoke.

*tears*

Lazy-Boy Vance is a self parody.

I think it is lovely every time an Incel marries outside their race.

Jason Crow's beard is a great decision for him.

Are they just trolling everyone by playing TSwift?

Elissa Slotkin has MASSIVE balls. You can tell she doesn't suffer fools, and she ain't playing around.

Love her.

Misha Collins is at the convention, and he's going to watch Kamala speak tonight, in person!

Lucky Castiel.

Fuck it: Al Sharpton has his problems, but he can bring it.

Al’s got the Central Park 5!

TMZ confirms it is Beyonce.

What a stroke of genius having these guys on.

The Central. Park. Five!!!!

Somewhere, an orange ape is flinging poo at the walls...

10 to 1 the Republicans will be all over twitter outraged that the DNC would bring on the Central Park Five, still insisting that they're guilty.

Here's hoping Dump spends more time in prison than the Exonerated Five.

Dump can never admit he was wrong nor apologize for ANYTHING. He's fucking insane.

We’re watching the Old Guard exit the stage. They were younger in 2016 and 2020 was in the midst of Covid. Most of these luminaries will not be around in 2028 and 2032.

R225: Reminds me for your nightly reminder:

LOCK THE FAT ORANGE BITCH UP!!!!!

I love that these men are being given this opportunity.

You've been warned:

"Free at last" is exactly how I'll feel when we're finally rid of the orange turd.

r227 MARY!!!!

Does anyone have tonight's schedule of speakers and performances?

This is like a miracle. God, why didn’t we do this in 2016?

Hello there Tristan

R233: Here you go.

Here you go, R233.

I think the CSPAN feed is lagging. I feel like I’m a few seconds behind.

Did I miss Elissa Slotkin??

I’m shaking and moaning

What was Ralph Fiennes doing there?

Thanks 236/237!

R239: Yes. You might be able to go back on the live link up at R150.

[quote] I’m shaking and moaning

It's "shaking and crying."

r238 is this better?

I love your enthusiasm, TheVoiceoftheNight / R234. I've been right there with ya the past few nights. Have had the hardest two years of my life both logistically and psychoemotionally. This Kamala stuff and the convention has coincided with a reprieve/improvement in other parts of my life. I feel like it's this crazy moment where things are shifting for the better personally and nationally, and it just feels so good. Phew.

R238 the Wall Street Journal live stream is very good.

My personal stuff is still on going, but this is somehow keeping me going.

I've been watching it on The Democrats channel on YouTube for four nights.

R247: No clicks for Murdoch. Down with Murdoch media!

Be yon ce

BeYawnCe

Tonight is outstanding so far. They are tearing the fucker to shreds. Bringing out the CP5 was genius. Ditto the victim of Trump university. This would never have happened with Biden at the top of the ticket. THIS is how we win.

Deb!!

Love her!

She’s impressive. I’m sure at home Trump is referring to her as Minnie-Ha-Ha.

I cannot believe that they put this together in only a month.

Is she dot or feather?

Lots of power and money behind it.

Dana Bash is crushing on Josh Shapiro.

This union spot is fantastic, devastating for Trump.

Folks, keep contributing money to the campaogn, it will allow commercial spots like this to flood the airways.

Wow, a mullet.

Tennessee Valley Authority!!

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

Wow, John Russell, who he? He's terrific!

This is what needs to be made clear to the Midwest/Rust Belt.

DEMOCRATS ARE BRINGING THE JOBS TO YOU.

Republicans are just talking about it, but they do nothing.

Will John Russell bring back the mullet? He’s single, girls.

This is them making damned sure not to repeat Hillary’s mistakes. If this is Kamala’s people’s doing, goddamn.

I wish she’d run this campaign in 2020. We might be working on reelecting her.

Teamster's President Sean O'Brien should be ASHAMED of himself for speaking at the Republican Convention.

I'm glad he wasn't invited to speak at the DNC.

Russell had a sexy swagger.

R261, a WV, blue collar MULLET.

Go fuck an Ottoman, JD.

Ohio is in play

Maxwell Frost looks like he'd be a great kisser.

Just an observation. If my name were Mark Twain, you'd be writing this shit down!!!!

Maxwell Frost — now THAT is a future President.

I must say, Kamala and her team are killing the "messaging" game.

The speaker who said earlier this week that Kamala will "bring back abortions" understands -- stop pussyfooting around trying to find a more "palatable" way of saying it.

Maxwell Frost 2036

Good job, Maxwell Frost!

This DJ sucks!!!

Lol

His music is all screwed up.

Frost is a superstar.

Steph Curry is phony baloney NIMBY asshole.

Mmmmm ... Shomari Figures is hot.

Ooh, hello Mr. Shomari Figures -- where have you been hiding? (see what I did there?)

Why Eva Longoria to speak? I would have liked Denzel.

God damn, this man needs to kick out that asshole Cruz

These young southern Democratic politicians are adorable! They give me hope! And a little buzzing in my panties!

A renown, diapered, poo and ketchup flinger is hurling HIMSELF against the walls tonight.

Hope they're not padded. Ouch!

I wish they could have invited Lucas Kunce too

What is this, Hotties on Parade?

Lots of twitching mussys and falling panties in this thread this evening.....YOU WHORES!!!

Denzel is a Republican

Beat Ted Cruz!

Beat Ted Cruz!

Beat Ted Cruz!

Yes I would love to see Lucas Kunce there.

I have donated to Collin Allred, Lucas Kunce, Elissa Slotkin and Katrina Christiansen so far today. Who next??

Oh, shit -- they brought out the parents of the Capitol officer killed by rabid Jan. 6 MAGAts.

Oh wow. Officer Sicknick's parents.

Did I see Elaine Wynn, former wife of Steve and one of Trump's big supporters behind Rob Reiner?

Are Ashlii Babbit's parents speaking?

Carter is gonna be a heartbreaker.

Tired of the hate!

Exactly!!

I’m going to be a goddamn mess when she speaks.

Yes, Gail! Those medication prices are capped because of President Joe Biden and Vice president Kamala Harris!

And Project 2025 will reverse that and give Big Pharma the ability to hack the prices up as high as they want. Cunts!

Wasn't Kerry Washington going to be one of the hosts tonight?

Ooh, please please bring out those two poor election workers Dump and Ghouliani sicced their dogs on!

Why is this drumline bullshit necessary? WHY?

*jack the prices

This is the most hype political convention I've ever seen.

She's up as host in the next segment, R299.

DAMNIT!!! That was only supposed to post the 8PM opening hour!!!

I apologize and condole you all.

Officer Sicknick's family makes a nice juxtaposition with the disgusting news that Trump is organizing a fundraising "awards gala" for the Jan. 6 insurgents.

Damn! This drumline!

Sean O’Brien is the scab.

I think the Teamsters rank and file know how to handle scabs.

Thanks for posting that, R306.

I missed the earlier part, so it was interesting to see who spoke earlier.

Was Kevin Richardson, the Kevin Richardson from Backstreet Boys?

[quote] Officer Sicknick's family makes a nice juxtaposition with the disgusting news that Trump is organizing a fundraising "awards gala" for the Jan. 6 insurgents.

I’m surprised they didn’t mention it.

It's kind of boring tonight.

R266 in 2020, with so many candidates, everyone had to pick a lane. She picked wrong lane. or was advised to use the wrong lane. She ran as something other than what she was—which is why it seemed inauthentic…it was. A mistake she’s corrected for this moment in time.

We can do without the celebrities. Who cares what they think?

[quote] I think the Teamsters rank and file know how to handle scabs.

Are there any stadiums being built?

Do we get music filler for the next 5 minutes?

The Prime Time program starts at 8pm EDT.

R280 Eva Longoria is an attention whore who is probably hoping Biden or possibly Harris (if she wins) will giver her a Presidential Medal of Freedom. The Biden White House hosted a screening of that bullshit Hot Cheetos movie Longoria directed.

I'm surprised Longoria hasn't started licking AOC's ass.

At least 50% of the rank and file Teamsters support Trump, R310. It's a trash union for trash people.

What y'all may not be aware of is the savage scrambling and elbowing for position that has occurred over the past few weeks to get on the program. That's why we're seeing a lot of randoms. Although I have to say if ever there was a chance to beat Ted Cruz this is it!

R311: One of the Central Park Five.

[quote] DL fave Sydney Sweeney and her giant bazoomas will be the surprise.

She's MAGA.

I REPEAT: Now is the time for the Macarena, if only this DJ has the COURAGE to do the right thing!!

2 more minutes of filler....

Why is Kerry Washington on the stage? I can't stand her. She is such a snob.

Coach!

GUS is in the house!!!!

He looks so happy!

GUS!!

Tim Walz rockin' out to Springsteen!

We Democrats sure know how to party! The music has been great. This is the best DNC convention I have ever seen, bar none!

I love how popular Gus has become.

Using Born in the USA as a rousing patriotic song is such a boomer mistake, though. Gen X, I though we knew better when Reagan tried to use it.

I'm ready, R323!

Gus is a national treasure who must be protected.

I love seeing all of the American flags in the crowd. 🇺🇸

Well, R332, Kamala and Tim are boomers, after all, though barely (1964).

r318, she also attacked her husband, per her tia Lupe.

[quote]Do we get music filler for the next 5 minutes? The Prime Time program starts at 8pm EDT.

It seems things started an hour late for some reason.

Everything goes full circle.

The Chicks sound great! 😊

Still think our crowds are AI-generated, Dump? Ha!

I am saddened that the DNC has clearly told Walz to stop kicking like a Rockette and knock off the Jazz Hands. Why can't he be his true self?

Is Gwen there?

Dougie 😍🥵

I thought she had gone away for good.

🤨

That's some forehead on Ms Kerry.

Please stop shouting. :(

She needs bangs

That’s exactly what my mom said. Massive forehead!

I like Kerry's top.

Tony G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tony is sex on a stick

Didn’t she get caught saying some homophobic religious shit a few years ago? Or am I thinking of someone else?

The Chicks took a tough song, did it a cappella, and with some striking, unusual harmonies and no weird flourishes. Well done.

I'm surprised I haven't seen America Ferrara yet. Usually the Washington/Longoria/Ferrara trinity shows up in lockstep at every DNC function.

I’d lick Tony G’s shitter!

[quote]It seems things started an hour late for some reason

Tay Tay is on the way.

That was odd.

I'd rather have Tony than Kerry.

Kerry is bossy and annoying.

Kerry is doing a BRILLIANT job!!

Can we have only black presidents forever moving forward please? They bring the funk!!!! I loved 2008 and I am LOVING this! The hope, the exhilaration, it's a tonic!

Whose going to tell Kerry Washington to grow up and stop acting like a TikToker.?

Aww, Kamala's nieces are so adorable!

Love the niece in the little pink Kamala pantsuit!

I really hope that tonight’s “big surprise” isn’t just Hasbeenyoncé performing her latest flop song. They need Taylor Swift to come out and introduce Kamala, let her give a little speech; no singing, just a tight 3-minute spiel. Harris needs to persuade dumb white women to vote for her, and Taylor Swift has them especially on my out of her hand.

Cute kids.

Very cute moment/idea. Comma-Lah!

Tragic tattoos on Ella.

I’m sorry but those tats are trashy as hell.

Ella’s voice is……unexpected!

Tony and Kerry were the hottest TV couple in at least the last 20 years.

Elle did a much better job than I expected.

I’m amazed at what a great job all these friends and family members have done the past four days.

Honestly, she just looks like a lot of young hipster urban girls these days. And you want that demo to show up.

Elle sure is...interesting looking.

The niece reminds me of Barbara Hershey.

Ugh, whose idea was DL Hughley. Isn't he a homophobe?

[quote]Honestly, she just looks like a lot of young hipster urban girls these days. And you want that demo to show up.

The Trader Joe's workers' caucus.

“Kamala’s been black a lot longer than Trump’s been a Republican.”

DL Hughley an unforced error. Surprised that so many amateur speakers performed better than a professional comedian.

DL's daughter is a lesbian.

I loved when he ripped Clooney last month.

Ok DL landed 3 zingers!!

R373 - yep, exactly. Some DLers should stop expecting people to conform, especially the younger generations. Nothing reveals a fossilized mentality than that type of judgmental bullshit.

Admits he wasn’t a fan but that he hadn’t done any research

Kerry needs a forehead reduction

Some odd choices for speakers tonight.

And why does it feel like I'm being lectured to by Kerry Washington?

I really don't like her.

Horrible choice to emcee this final night.

What a shrill harpy.

Chris Swanson is cute

[quote]Tony is sex on a stick

Hell, yes.

Woof!

I found Mindy Kaling more annoying.

Hubba hubba Officer Chris Swanson! He's like something straight out of central casting!

Hello, Sheriff!

R382 Speaking of fossils, Nancy Pelosi (and her "breath" mints) have been rambling non stop on CBS for about 15 minutes. ugh. Poor Gayle.

Officer Hunkahunk is straight out of Central Casting.

Sheriff Chris Swanson - wow ! Can he fuck me, please ?

Handcuff me, Deputy Swanson!

Sheriff Hottie. 😍

Emphasizing her law enforcement background is such a good move.

Does Deputy Swanson have an OnlyFans?

That rockin' bod is bursting out of his uniform!

[quote]Officer Hunkahunk is straight out of Central Casting.

Does his movie need a top?

Officer Swanson is tanned and impressive. I think she’s doing a great job!

THAT WAS THE SURPRISE - a megahunk cop!

Why did they switch to a long shot as he left the stage, I wanted to see his ass.

That type often likes a little man sex now and then.

I’d lick Sheriff Swanson’s shitter!

Kamala didn’t do herself any favors having Liz Warren and Maura Healy speaking earlier on her behalf. They can’t get out of their own political or common-sense way.

These poor people 😢🥺

These moms are making me cry.

Oh gosh shit just got real. Sandy Hook.

Run this as an ad. It is so powerful.

Lucy McBath is an inspiration.

Spank me Sheriff. I've been a bad boy!

I wanna see Swanson and Goldwyn naked and having some hot mansex.

Those poor families. 🥺

Sorry but these gun victims are bringing down the energy. Save this for after people are asleep.

[quote]Kamala didn’t do herself any favors having Liz Warren and Maura Healy speaking earlier on her behalf. They can’t get out of their own political or common-sense way.

Yes, the thunderous applause for Warren proved that.

Who's the little gay boy?

The sheriff in suit and tie and the biggest goddamned chin this side of Kirk Douglas.

I think he went to the same school as David Hogg, R419.

Where's David Hogg? I want to see the Hogg

I'm actually crying. This is all so awful.

Swanson has beautiful eyes.

Oh, Gabby 🥹🥹🥹

What a head shot, r420!

Luke Skywalker in the audience!

Thanks, R422. Usually the kids who speak become well known like Hogg but I didn't recognize him.

Did anyone else see Octavia Spencer in the crowd?

Awww Gabby

R428 was for R421, Thanks.

I wish I had an iota of Giffords' gumption.

I'm not even joking when I say that this particular election cycle and this convention makes me want to get into politics or volunteer, something. Just be involved, not on the sidelines. This DNC in particular has been enormously eye and heart opening. I want to participate in positive, enduring change on this planet.

I saw Octavia plus the lady from Abbott Elementary.

Sheryl Lee Ralph.

What’s up with her speech though? They need better talkers at this thing.

I love Gabby!

....

Giffords was plucky and dear and touching.

Someone else for that cunt Ann Coulter to make fun of tomorrow.

.....

LOVE Pink!

Pink Jr. is very lezzby.

Do it, r432.

Michelle O already personally asked you to. Contact your local Democratic group and volunteer.

It's that easy. They will have something you can do, whether it's phone/text bank, write postcards, canvass, bring food for the volunteers or just answer the office phone, you can get involved!

Also, see if your county needs poll workers!

Oh god, please don’t tell me we’re about to do a trans segment.

I’m crying again. 🥹🥹🥹

Pink and company!

Is that pink’s kid?

ST!NK

Swanson was supposed to strip for us before he left the stage. WTF went wrong ?

R442: Just die already you miserable bitch.

Wowza, r438!

Yes, R444

Does that scare you, r442?

Good.

I think that is Pinks kid

Too much focus on celebrities and not enough on actual policy and everyday citizens.

The Obama convention was so much better, This is coming off like an upscale awards show, save a few heartwarming earnest moments like Walzs son and Gifford.

Gorgeous song.

Yes, it scares me that it’s going to turn off a bunch of voters.

It’s Pink’s daughter Willow.

So you’re saying at one time she was in the Pink?

Chris Swanson is there???? Fuck, I missed him. I’ve been following him since he became a sort of police hero during the George Floyd uprising.

Your concern is duly noted Mrs Collins @R454.

The Honorable Mark Kelly

United States Senator, Arizona

Remarks

The Honorable Leon E. Panetta

Former United States Secretary of Defense

Remarks

The Honorable Ruben Gallego

Coming Up Next:

Member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Arizona

Remarks

The Honorable Gretchen Whitmer

Governor of Michigan

You really missed it, R457, he was glorious! I am still drooling.

Great job by Pink and daughter and the gang.

Her daughter has a great voice!

Pink has a wonderful voice and her hair always looks great.

Pink looks like Tabatha Coffey who starred in 'Tabitha's Salon Takeover' in the 2000s. She needs a new look - hers is outdated.

I know, right R418? Such a wonderful giveaway that they don’t live anywhere in or near Massachusetts and enjoy being brainwashed. ;)

When is Deacon Phillippe singing?

[quote] Yes, it scares me that it’s going to turn off a bunch of voters.

I don’t get that vibe at all 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you doll at R441! On it.

Leon Panetta is sure to bring down the house.

Imagine Kelly last night instead of Walz...

No way Harris shows up before 10:30 at the earliest. Why so many speakers especially tonight?

[quote]Yes, it scares me that it’s going to turn off a bunch of voters.

Who are these voters you think will be turned off?

Can he use those ears to fly? 🙂

When is Nenah Cherry performing?

Kelly is awful.

R454 also thinks JD Vance is very smart, R471.

R466: Cause it's not true. Every time the GOP campaigns on the trans issue, they've lost. Voters are not anti-trans.

They must have promised every rejected VP candidate a spot in prime time.

[quote]Using Born in the USA as a rousing patriotic song is such a boomer mistake, though. Gen X, I though we knew better when Reagan tried to use it.

Not tonight, Satan Child; peddle your chaos elsewhere, tonight is all about joy and unity.

Kamala picked the right VP candidate! Tim Walz, baby.

Senator Mark Kelly's ears look like Dr Spock ears.

R460, I just restarted it and FFd it to see him. Drool worthy indeed!

Okay, I like Mark Kelly, but I'm glad he wasn't Kamala's running mate.

And we now know why Mark Kelly, as decent and accomplished as he is, was not selected for the VP slot.

Hips don’t lie!

[quote]I don’t get that vibe at all

Neither did the poster you’re quoting — he’s just trolling.

Do you mean “Mr. Spock,” R480? 😆

Is that Nosferatu?

Gabby is always so damned inspiring!

Walz > Buttigieg > Shapiro > Kelly

Kelly can pick up satelite TV with those dish antennas.

Leon Panetta looks like Ed Wynn.

Leon, oh Leon…zzzzzzzzzzz.

Coming up at 9PM Central/10PM Eastern:

Remarks

Eva Longoria

American actress and film producer

Remarks

The Honorable Adam Kinzinger

Former Member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Illinois

Remarks

Maya Harris

Remarks

The Honorable Roy Cooper

Governor of North Carolina

Remarks

The Honorable Kamala Harris

Vice President of the United States

Tony Braxton was there

Kelly kept it short, at least

Anyone watching CBS? They just ran an anti-Kamala ad, lol.

Leon Panetta you in trouble, Girl!

You left out the Commander-in-Chief Obama.

What you should have said is, "When I received the order from President Obama I directed ....."

Honey, dump don’t CARE

R496: Sheri Redstone is a bitch.

So Kamala won’t actually speak until ~11PM eastern?

I just nodded off

[quote]Anyone watching CBS? They just ran an anti-Kamala ad, lol.

I saw an anti-Kamala ad on MSNBC last night.

Who allowed Joe control of the remote?

Tonight's speakers are SOOOOOOOOO boring!

I understand that they didn't want anyone to upstage Kamala, but they at least needed some speakers to liven up the crowd.

After 3 nights of amazing speeches, tonight is kind of a let down.

Wake me when Kamala walks on.

Yeah, I wasn’t that impressed with Shapiro. I’m sure he’s a good, capable politician but he didn’t connect like Doug Emhoff and Tim Walz.

This convention has done everything it needed to do. Every single thing.

Get the hook, Leon’s put everyone asleep.

[quote]Eva Longoria

How many times do we need to see and hear from her? Enough.

[quote] Kelly can pick up satelite TV with those dish antennas.

Well, there was probably a reason why he and his twin brother were selected for the astronaut p program.

Someone went long. They are running behind schedule.

Are we gonna need a new thread soon?

Yaya, Rubén!

Beat that uber crazy loon. Whatever her name is.

[quote] I doubt if the DNC's idea of "special guest" is the same as mine.

Is yours like Vikki Carr or Lainie Kazan?

Ruben is such a cutie.

Oh it’s going to be Beyoncé

So boring

I didn't think Leon was boring. I totally expected him to be, but thought he made important points that nobody else had made yet

Bring on Kamala already! ☹️

[quote]Yeah, I wasn’t that impressed with Shapiro. I’m sure he’s a good, capable politician but he didn’t connect like Doug Emhoff and Tim Walz.

Shapiro gave a great speech. He mission was different. Emhoff and Walz's job was to connect with you. Shapiro was the attack dog to take down Trump. All of them did great jobs.

Yes yes yes more of this.

Great moment!!

Tammy!

Damn. This has all been so powerful.

Here's part 6 for when this thread gets full

Ted!

Love him as well

Dump is getting steamrolled! Called out on zero action on gun laws, demeaning our military, praising dictators and failing our people. He is a POS and will Lose.

Why are they running so far behind? People have to get up and go to work.

Big Gretch!

Gretchen is pretty.

I didn't know what she looked like before this.

This has really been an amazing convention.

The Whitmer jugs are carefully nestled in that dress. Fabulous look.

Sometimes the cameramen or the person who calls the shots pisses me off.

I have a crush on Big Gretch

Quite big tits!

Gretchen Whitmer is a dish.

Whitmer's plastic surgeon is outstanding!

Loving the one earring look!

Gretchen's face has settled nicely. She was on The View a few months ago and she looked like a cartoon character.

R526 Dumo is running out of gas. I think they will be forced to pull him from the ticket.

Meghan MyFather McCain is going to sue because they invoked her father's name without her permission or proper licensing from the McCain estate.

Is she, in fact, “big”?

Is that you Pats r534?

I’m watching the DNC YouTube channel and the ASL guy is getting into this.

"It's ten o'clock. Do you know where your children are, Comrades?"

Running amok through the DNC threads. Put some leashes on your untrained puppies! They are why we can't have nice things.

Maybe no Beyonce after all?

I’m watching C-SPAN on YouTube. Gavel to gavel coverage with zero commentators.

I first knew who she was when she was standing up against what I can only describe as a pro-bullying bill when she was the minority leader in the Michigan Senate. She was so blatantly disgusted by it, I fell for her instantly. It’s been so great watching her rise.

Back on schedule

Gretchen will be the new spokesperson for relaunch of the Playtex 'cross your heart' bra.

Philanthropist?

R545: IT WAS EVA ALL ALONG!!!!!

Okay I see why you guys were throwing her name out for President. Impressive.

Oh, god. Eva Longoria.

Pass.

Ok, if they have a “special guest” then she/he better get on stage PDQ!

She se puede!!!!

Awesome!!

She se puede!

Hey. It's Ava Mongoria. She was on that show 20 years ago. Ava! Ava! Ava!

Link for you all looking to get involved.

Just popped up on the DNC channel.

Also, official merch

I’m very happy getting commentary from MSNBC, I don’t need an “unmediated feed.”

ADAM!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting how Eva Longoria doesn't give credit to Dolores Huerta for "Si se puedes". She's a fucking cunt and I hope Dolores calls her out.

Get off the stage, Eva.

Cute Adam. You know he curses while you’re fucking him.

Here’s Adam. Not as cute as Chris Swanson

Adam! God he sacrificed everything for that committee.

Adam's suit looks too tight for him.

And I love it!

He's still hot

I dunno, he’s real cute.

I love how Adam likes him some low-key side dick.

I wonder if his jock strap is the same color as his tie.

Yes, you’re right r520. I might listen to that again.

Kizinger is great at speeches.

Adam would be a fool not to come back to politics as a Democrat.

I mean, what's stopping him?

Adam's suit looks tight because he's wearing a harness underneath.

His politics

R573: He doesn't align with the party on many issues. If we had a more proportional voting system for Congress, he could launch his own party and win seats.

I’d love to lick that big jaw. So my type. Ugh.

Adam's suit is hideous.

Adam is still a conservative, that won't swing in a Democratic primary.

[quote]Adam would be a fool not to come back to politics as a Democrat.

His continued belief in bedrock conservative principles, one would imagine.

Adam is smokin Trump and what's left of the GOP.

Because he's a Republican who hates Trump, R573. They really should start their own party. The GOP has become unrecognizable under Trump.

I don’t even know what conservatives stand for anymore. They have completely lost their way

I love his green tie.

Fox isn’t airing Adam.

God I wish he'd get a Grindr message during his speech and the mic would pick up on that brrrp! sound.

He’s hoping that post-Trump the Republican party will moderate enough for him to come back.

He may have to suck many cocks though.

He's a conservative, but it is important to the two-party system to have a functioning center-right party. He's sacrificed his career in politics for the truth. That takes a lot. And he's cute as hell.

Some of you gals are hard up.

This is going to play really, really well.

But will it play in Peoria?

No, R587, that’s not happening & Adam has no future in his old party.

The Democrats are the center-right party. The Republicans are a far-right party.

Any Intel on why Gavin didn't get a speaking slot?

Haha Nancy gives zero fucks about Adam.

I love her half clap.

She's like, "whatever."

I don't think she likes him.

Adam is adorable. Scrumtious.

His eyes are awfully shiny.

That sound you hear, is a 1000 gay panties dropping to the floor!!!

He hates Trump, he's good with me.

I'd give him a blowjob for every cock he has to suck.

Part 6

Where the fuck is Kamala?

yada, yada, yada.

Get to the surprise guest and Kamala already.

I like Maya's suit.

Kamala got the looks didn't she.

Beautiful suit color on Maya.

It has to be hell planning these conventions. All the egos they have to deal with.

I feel history repeating itself. I hate to say it. I am heartbroken. I have seen this show before.

Fox News is not even having a serious critique of the convention, it's 5 people sitting around making jokes about CNN and how men in the Democratic party are "Low T".

No R809 you have not seen this before Slavana, don't you have some street walking to do to supplement your Trolling income?
