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.

That will PO the Bernie supporters even more if the MSM ignores them.

... she (they) don’t have control over the typical Democrat voter.

I would say they do. Enough of those unthinking, servile fools pull the (D) every single time - no brain involved. However, I would say they have "enough" voters that realize they are getting jobbed.

The libs at DU are in absolute chaos over there. There’s absolute fighting over the Debbie thing and the email drama unfolding (and about to unfold further). The rats are smelling a sinking ship and it’s fun to watch.

The MSM wanted a riot at the GOP convention. They’re getting their wish with the DNC convention.

“Hell no DNC - We wont’ vote for Hillary”

I like it, has sort of a Dr Seuss feel to it.

I would like it on a shirt, I would like it on a yurt...

Good point about that fence... gimme a Milwaukee cordless angle grinder with a cutoff wheel and I’ll have it opened up for the hippies and anarchists in less than a minute.

I’ll take a Milwaukee Sawzall, the assault rifle of power tools. With one of those in your hands, you are invincible.

MILES of 8 ft. fences...

Minor detail -I wonder if the sleazy DNC paid for this 4 mile fence or did the DNC somehow grab tax money to do their fence?

They need the fence to keep their lackey rabble away from the elites. They only need the rabble come election day. And at the odd RNC convention or Trump appearance.

Funny thing is that this crap will not work anymore. This will be an epic loss for Hillary IMO.

Those things will cut through almost anything.The only thing better would be one of those Stihl rescue saws with the diamond blade.

Yes, that would be a doggone dirty shame if riots were to break out. A shame, I tell you.

DNC is built on lies, deceit, division. Their house of cards is collapsing from within.

I'm not sure if Kevin Spacey (one of the Executive Producers of the TV drama House of Cards) had this in mind when the real thing is threatening to be more intriguing than the TV series!
