The festival of fakery that was the DNC finally wrapped on Thursday night.
They’re trying to sell that you have to vote for them to save democracy — even as they attacked democracy, shoving the guy who got more than 14 million votes in the primary off the ballot for one who didn’t even get one primary vote for the position. They also tried to shove former President Donald Trump off the ballot, as well as some of the third-party candidates.
They also tried to say they were about joy — while spending all the time attacking their opponent and millions of his supporters, while not spending much time at all talking about the things that they would do to serve the people. Of course, the problem is that they really can’t talk about that because they’ve been in office for three-plus years and have produced a failed record. So they’re in sort of a conundrum of having to paint Kamala as a change agent despite the fact that she was in charge with Joe Biden for the last few years. That’s a hard thing to sell. Then she’s not even talking about policy or doing any interviews, just doing recited speeches off a teleprompter.
Meanwhile, Trump is open to talking with anyone about his plans. He managed to upstage her by running down the lies that she told as he posted on Truth Social. He also did an interview with Bret Baier and Martha McCallum on Fox.
