Why Democrats’ convention set them up to lose in November (all icing and no cake)
NY Post ^ | 8/23/24 | Joe Concha

All icing and no cake.

That’s the only way to describe the Democratic National Convention that mercifully ended Thursday night with Kamala Harris’s acceptance speech as the party’s improbable nominee.

The icing, of course, was all the joy shoved down America’s collective throats from Chicago, a city where more than two dozen have been shot since the convention began, all without a care in the world about the state of the country.

On Night Three alone, the word “joy” was said 30 times by various speakers.

But that wasn’t close to the word uttered most from podium.

Instead, the gold medal goes to a name:

Trump.

Night One speakers somehow said it 160 times.

On Night Two, which featured Barack and Michelle Obama, Trump got a break; he name was broached only 60 times.

The number shot back up to 94 on Night Three.

And on the final night, Harris alone hit him 15 times.

But surely Dems would move past the icing and get to the cake, right?

Guess again: On Night One, the border, a prime issue for voters, got mentioned all of eight times — and then to blame Trump for the crisis Biden and Harris and the party created all on their own.

Here’s the facts: Trump’s final year in office saw just 400,651 illegals encountered at the border. In 2023, that number jumped to about 2.4 million, not counting so-called gotaways.

OK, so how about inflation, the No. 1 issue for the public?

That was mentioned exactly three times.

Forget about cake, that isn’t even a crumb.

I hear that “Big Gulp” Harris was pretty good at “Joyful Endings” back in the day...

Trump was supposed to be shot, last month.

This has all been sort-of rushed.

I guess the best that they can say for Kommie-la is that she isn’t Trump.

Sad

Good point.

I also wonder if the failure to kill Trump was the reason The Demented One was forced out.

Biden’s cattle; seems that with talking to students from the local college driving very nice cars, all the student loan forgiveness went to mostly Red States for the vote. Since the students with large loans, spent their extra money on new cars or late model used cars that taxpayers are paying for. Since the students are first time buyers they get very low down payments and low monthly payments guaranteed by the U.S. gov’t. Thank you dems.

Harris, in her calm, potential leader of the most powerful country on earth said “thank you” 27 times before starting her speech. So smart. So polished. So stupid.

According to some theorists, you should never mention your opponent by name. That give him free exposure and name recognition.
So, I guess, thanks Democrats!

I was appalled that they trotted out a line of crime victims all saying the loss of their loved ones was due to Republicans’ opposition to 2nd Amendment restrictions when those tragedies occurred from Democrats not enforcing law and allowing criminals to cross our border.

That illustrated how far they’ve gone to reshape reality in the minds of their thralls...and succeeded. “How many fingers?”
