C-SPAN cameras captured the dissatisfaction among members after the motion passed.

Each time, the no votes got louder and louder. Another embarrassment for the DNC.

Is this a last-minute attempt by the Dems to save face after it leaked that both God and Israel had originally been stricken from the platform?
Hilarious that it took so long to “deem” passed by a 2/3 majority. It sounded more like half and half to me.

“Took three attempts.”
No way was there a 2/3 vote for inclusion.
No way.

“Maybe 50/50. Maybe.”
Nope. the nays had it. Godless atheists are not likely in favor of that amendment and the place was lousy with them...they are the hardcore base and activists. You could smell em through the screen.

It also shows how incredibly STUPID Villagarosa is...he should have rammed it through after the first vote..or maybe he was actually stunned that there could be so much opposition tot he resolution..
Hey, Mayor..this is what YOUR party has become..

The Israelis were probably watching better than American Jews. Just a guess.
