Democratic National Convention Thread

[ChumpDumper]

The first three nights of the D.N.C. reveal that the Democratic Party is employing the same strategy that was used in 2016—building an anti-Trump coalition, rather than offering an agenda of change for America.

They really only need 70,000 more votes than last time.

The biggest tragedy of the Holocaust is that the Shapiro gene pool managed to survive.

Can you imagine how many times they practiced that, and he still messes it up? God help us if there is some international emergency and he's president - it'll be "What country is that again and who's the leader?"

They’re starting to talk about taking the public option out of their platform too.

As Barry said “Never under estimate Joe’s ability to things up”

Deciding to tighten the belt in a depression is Hoover-like. It's political and economic malpractice.

Where are you getting this from? The public option thing has been a Biden selling point for years.

Yeah I have no idea why Kaufman would say that. Even if it’s true (which it isn’t, they just don’t want to increase taxes on rich people), keep it to yourself before the election is over.

Meh, President Biden would pass whatever spending Congress sends him.

I don't think it's going to be that simple, he's gonna need to get his hands dirty with congress.

If he's able to end the pandemic, get a public option through congress, raise the cap gains tax rate up to the ordinary income tax rate and get a Dem elected in 2024, IMO his presidency will be a major win.

Political malpractice, like I said.

And Trump does it even bother and gives us a laugh a day. We have to look forward to Joe because he actually takes care to not totally embarrass himself like trump does every day.
in this way Trump is very honest because he absolutely has no problem lying and then repeating it. willful deception is part of the red platform. hopefully they write that in during the convention.

The knee jerk reaction from some here is strong.

1 guy from a transition team says something and it’s taken as gospel. The chances he won’t be there past helping Biden and his team transition into the WH are high. This Kauffman guy is even older than Biden.

Didn’t you make an entire thread about this and it backfired on you? He said Jill’s husband.

Reading the tea leaves, like we must. Biden/Harris can clear this up with a quickness if it's an error or a misrepresentation, have they?

Then get rid of him. Biden already says enough dumb , he doesn't need another one.

Bill Maher says it best, the rules are rigged against the Dems. Wyoming gets as many senators as California, voter suppression, the electoral college, etc. They don't have room for error.
