The closing night of the Democratic National Convention on Thursday drew about 26.2 million TV viewers, narrowly outpacing the Republican National Convention’s final night, according to data from the media measurement company Nielsen.
The convention’s final night aired across 15 television networks and drew about 820,000 more viewers than the estimated 25.4 million people who watched the final night of the Republican event, Nielsen reported.
Her speech was 100% Nuremberg rally and they cheered her on. They cheered for more cops, harsher immigration, defiant imperialism.
Well, you have two options. The scenario you made up about Harris, or the scramble-butt roundabout happening in trumps head.
Trump won’t do anything to alleviate suffering in Gaza. He loves it. Also fuck AIPAC.
Vote for Kamala! The harm REDUCTION candidate!
Did she say it would make the “desert” bloom by donating money to plant trees in Israel? Wow what an uninformed prick who was bought into Zionist propaganda :/
At the end of the day, what really happens is that Israel burns orchards and trees of Palestinians so some politician like her (whose two main strenthas now are ‘knowing how to meme’ and the mandatory ‘not being trump’) can come and say crap like that.
I feel sorry for Americans who are forced to vote for this genocide-driving politician with fake compassion because the alternative is more horrendous. I feel sorry for them because even though they may oppose the genocide, they have absolutely no way to pressure their candidate of choice to stop funding it with weapons.
Kamala, take those fucking trees and put them up your ass.
✊🏿🇵🇸
why did you inflict that on me. no, i appreciate that, because I want to be fully aware of what carnage and horror i’m voting for. but if you go vote for Jill Stein or whomever, you’re voting for Trump. you are wasting your vote.
But how can Americans pressure their candidate into not committing literal war crimes? It seems almost impossible to do that a year before the election (when things matter the most and candidates can make promises).
i do not know. I know that supporting Stein will not change anything. if you have an obscene amount of money, you might get an audience with the right person to say, “Hey! stop the genocide!”. and they will ask, “how much?”
You have two options I’m not voting for either one of them. By the time the next inauguration comes around, there’s not likely to be many left in Gaza.
So what’s your alternative? Gonna angrily be a dick online?
My ballot is my business.
So why are you bitching about it on the internet? Either it is your private business, or you want a discussion about it, both can’t be true at the same time.
I didn’t bring up my ballot, someone else did
Guess what, you did:
“There he goes, off to write his hit song, ‘Alone In My Principles’…”
I’m guessing Trump’s policies wouldn’t affect you directly. People with that kind of privilege can choose not to vote because nothing about their daily lives will change much regardless of which candidate gets elected. But for many of us, whose lives and well being are at stake, we’re forced to go with the lesser of two evils because a Trump presidency really would have a major impact on my life.
The duopoly in of itself is evil. There is no lesser evil, only evil
The mental gymnastics you are performing are gold medal worthy
I’ll bet $10 you’re either not even American, and/or not even of voting age lol.
And that’s a bet you would lose.
Big doubt. But no matter what, I’m either correct, or it’s sad.
You are neither
Spot on. All the excitement of Biden dropping and Harris making some savvy choices (like Walz) got me timidly peeking out from the cocoon of cynicism I’ve build up from decades of incompetent and evil leadership. Then Harris welt full tilt Palpatine/DNC pandering campaign cop and all that good will and energy just evaporated. In addition to shying away from all this vaunted joy-infused leadership-ness I heard Democrats crow about for four days, she’s hurting her electability with yet another Democratic shift to the right. And, if we’re lucky enough to get her in, and finally boot the orange shitgibbon to the curb, we have every reason to believe she will run yet another, timid, milquetoast administration that continues to Overton window us further toward Republican-style fascism.
I desperately hate the Democratic Party for being such a comprehensively ineffective opposition to creeping fascism. She had a chance to demonstrate real leadership here, but chose DC campaign consultant maneuvering instead. Such a deep let down.
this is the cynicism that is killing us. you can yourself affect that Overton window by applying your writing skills.
It wasn’t just a mild shift to the right. It was a jolt.
