Useless pieces of chit all of them. If they're all that's standing between us and communism we might as well start practicing our "Good morning Comrades".

It was sad that they forced Ashleigh Biden* to get jacked up and speak. They desperately want the Biden* family to appear normal and not the f*cked up, drugged up, pedos that they are.
AOC's speech about Trump selling the country out to his wall st friends for one dollar was especially stupid, even for her. Especially because A) Trump literally has no friends on wall st and B) Biden* was just found to have sold the country out for $27million.
They had way too many open seats. Earlier on, the convention are was about 90% empty. The DNC live feed was apparently pumping in applause and people yelling, because on the actual feed it wasnt happening. SOme of the earlier speakers would mention TIm Walz's name, and wait for the crowd reaction, which akwardly never came.
The DNC had a rule that DNC staff had to be smiling on the grounds. If you were caught not smiling, you received a verbal warning, followed by a sit down, followed by being fired if you were caught the 3rd time not smiling. They apparently failed to mention this to Tim Walz and his wife, who had scouls on their faces most of the night.
Harris was on stage for like 2-3 minutes, so that had little bearing on overall length. And most likely, that was not some last minute change.
Her name is Ashley. And I'll take a family with issues and tragedy over that ghoulish trump clan any day. Did you see the video of trump ignoring Tiffany. Great dad there!
And yeah, newsflash, political conventions are choreographed.
But yes, at 5:30 central time, there was some empty seats in a place that seats close to 23k. But by all means, keep harping on crowd sizes all the way through mid-November when you realize a cackling black woman will be your president for four years.
Really? I can’t imagine what’s going on in your family if think Joe’s a great dad.
Dude, you have a overhead view from the equivalent of the ISS. Dude lost a wife, a kid, and had another kid with a severe substance use disorder. You come off as not having clue one how a parent navigates all that.

There are thousands of parents who deal with the loss of children due to substance abuse or overdosing on fentanyl.
You would think some like Biden would understand this and try to close the border and drugs from pouring in from day one.

I know how hard it sucks when that happens.
It does and now I gotta go have a beer before noon.

Quote:"Because of the raucous applause interrupting speaker after speaker, we ultimately skipped elements of our program to ensure we could get to President Biden as quickly as possible so that he could speak directly to the American people. We are proud of the electric atmosphere in our convention hall and proud that our convention is showcasing the broad and diverse coalition behind the Harris-Walz ticket throughout the week on and off the stage."

I could see going to sit in on peace talks between ISR/Hamas or RUS/UKR, but vacation over party convention?
Is this a microcosm of the last 3.5 years of 'Biden leadership': he's a figurehead and others really running the show.

You obviously never learned how to watch TV for anything but exciting stuff like Memphis in a bowl game or the NCAAT. Or in your case, any soccer match in the world.
I rarely watch any TV program. What I do is keep it on the most interesting program possible (often a hard ask) and muted, look up now and then, and when something is interesting, I turn on the sound. If it's REALLY interesting, I'll run it back and watch whatever I missed. Otherwise, I'm in the room doing anything else but watching TV.
Last night the Braves were off, so the convention was about the only live thing on. I almost never watch taped TV shows, b/c they always edit out the goofs and flubs and funny stuff.
I didn't listen to a word of the daughter, or AOC, or Hillary, or most of the other stuff. But I did listen to Biden b/c I figured that was his swan song.
So that's how you watch a convention, lol.

He apparently navigated it by showering with his daughter and selling out the country for 27million.

Pretty ridiculous statement. And not very well thought out as the majority of the fentanyl comes across guarded border crossings.
Quote:This data indicates most smuggling of illicit drug substances into the U.S. happens at ports of entry, not between. Hidden in compartments in vehicles and cargo, smuggling is often quicker and more expedient at POEs compared to traveling through rough terrain between ports. While it might appear easier to smuggle illicit fentanyl between POEs, there are tools that detect the movement of illicit drugs between ports that likely make it a more difficult option. These tools include the heightened presence of Border Patrol agents along the border and detection technology, including Integrated Surveillance Towers (ISTs), Land Interdiction Multi-Role Enforcement Aircraft (MEA), tunnel detection programs, and other radar and remote surveillance technology.
Further, seizures are increasing. That is a good thing, and that's happening under Biden. I still don't understand this as a flex for Biden being bad when they are catching the shipments more frequently.
Lastly, Hunter is still alive. He didn't die of an OD.
