Convention chaos already: DNC chair out, protesters storm Philly
nypost ^

Posted on 07/25/2016 7:31:43 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Chaos reigned Sunday ahead of the Democratic National Convention, as the party’s head was forced to quit, thousands of protesters took to the streets and delegates threatened a walk-out over Hillary Clinton’s vice-presidential pick.

On the eve of the four-day convention to nominate the county’s first female presidential candidate, Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz resigned in disgrace over the hack of emails that showed DNC staffers favoring Clinton over her then rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Meanwhile, throngs of Sanders supporters marched and pounded on drums, chanting “Hell no, DNC — we won’t vote for Hillary” in the sweltering heat during the first in an expected series of protests in Philadelphia.

A leading Sanders supporter, Norman Solomon, also said a “vast majority” of the socialist’s delegates were considering turning their backs — or even walking out of the Wells Fargo Center — during Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine’s acceptance speech to run as Clinton’s second-in-command.

Hahaha…can you imagine the panic in the Democrat media ranks as they try to put lipstick on this pig? Unless they set the NYT and CNN suites on fire in the convention hall, they will refuse to acknowledge the uprising in the streets of Philly.

DNC is built on lies, deceit, division. Their house of cards is collapsing from within.
Nothing could make me happier.

This just goes to show everyone that while Hillary and her lap dog DNC may have control over the media, pundits, and poltroons, she (they) don’t have control over the typical Democrat voter.

MILES of 8 ft. fences, dissention in the ranks. Dissention in their internal meetings, dissention in everything except the unified fairy tale she’s having media portray. All it is gonna take is one more match in the haystack.

Deliciously entertaining.

There were 10x as many pro Bernie protesters today as the crowd on any day in CLE. And maybe 1/10 the media.”

Doesn’t matter what happens, only what the media shows.

LOL! The Black Panther/BLM/OWS recreational riot artists are smarting after their pitiful showing in Cleveland. They need to repair their "street cred" in Philly.

Bern, Philly, Bern!
