Isn't the Dem party in bed with Hollywood and media elite? How did this convention turn into such an awkward flop?

Consider the contrast today. President Donald Trump was in the heartland, speaking to American strivers.

The DNC? It’s at a Hollywood studio.

Heartland > Hollywood

DC mayor blasts Trump at Democratic convention for handling of protests

Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser (D) blasted President Trump during the Democratic National Convention on Monday for his handling of the George Floyd protests in front of the White House.

“It was here that just weeks ago Americans donned face masks and safely and peacefully protested the death of George Floyd,” she said. “But while we were peacefully protesting, Donald Trump was plotting.”

“I knew if he did this to D.C., he would do it to your city or your town, and that’s when I said enough,” she added. “I said enough for every Black and brown American who has experienced injustice enough, for every American who believes in justice.”


Law enforcement used tear gas to disperse a crowd of protesters in front of the White House on June 1, before curfew and shortly before the president crossed Lafayette Square and posed for photos in front of St. John’s Church with a Bible.

Bowser said she created Black Lives Matter plaza along 16th Street in D.C., near the White House, “as a place where we could come together to say enough” and elect presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden as president.

The Democrat Convention is a very angry toned, bitter, anti-American celebration of domestic terrorism.

Wow. DNC kicked off with the preamble to the Constitution, then Pledge of Allegiance, then opening verse of America The Beautiful before a stirring, red white & blue rendition of The Star Spangled Banner & an openly Christian prayer by a pastor. Did not expect that

The DNC just touted Biden’s “Pandemic Playbook” that he supposedly left.

I read that so-called “playbook” from cover to cover.

Here was the plan —> rely on China’s WHO. Corrupt WHO mentioned dozens of time.

Clearly, China was the PROBLEM, not the answer!

Joe Biden and the Democrats abandoned Wisconsin.

Their solution? Let celebrities host from Hollywood.

They could not be more out of touch if they tried!

Despite some awkward moments, it’s clear this format has some big advantages:

1) endless variety of settings/backdrops
2) no unruly delegates to contend with
3) keeping it short

Just had a phone chat with other people who have to watch this and mostly we all just screamed at each other about how bad this pre-produced show is.

OAN chose not to cover the Kasich speech, delivered in a field with a gravel 'Y' fork.  Another network mentioned that he was literally standing in a field at the crossroads, obviously with zero idea what a 'crossroads' actually was.  (Hint:  it starts with 'cross')

Who didn’t expect the rats to be cynically & nauseatingly disingenuous.

so I don't need to watch that circus!

I watched Tombstone for the upteenth time this evening.  Much better use of my time.

“We’re going to fight for the survival of our nation.” -@realDonaldTrump


“If Biden and Harris get into power they pledge to raise your taxes by $4 trillion, which put in very simple terms means many of you have to pay double and triple the taxes that you are paying right now.”— @realDonaldTrump


“78 days we are going to win this state. We are going to take back the White House. We are going to have an election that’s all about the survival of our nation.”— @realDonaldTrump

President Trump raises an essential question:

"If left-wing Democrats can't run a city, why on earth would you let them run your country?"
