Now tying Project 2025 to Trump. Even so what idiocy. He’s going to fire prosecutors. Presidents usually do! That was Trump 1.0 mistake, not firing them all.

[Reno89519]

And did you notice the silence, I think the crowd knew better?

[Political Junkie Too]

Weaponizing the Department of Justice to go after political opponents!

THAT IS NOT HOW IT WORKS IN AMERICA! That's how it works in dictatorships!

Are the projecting?

You’d think they’d know how to use a mic.

She said Trump could turn the fbi into his own private police force.

Ummm. Sweetheart. Look in the mirror.

[philippa]

Polls consistently show voters are mainly concerned with inflation and immigration. No mention of either subject so far.

[Political Junkie Too]

I think this isn't going to sway the Democrats, and it certainly isn't going to sway Republicans.

If the rest of the convention is going to be like tonight so far, this is just a therapy session for the Democrat base to shut up and accept Harris.

[LibsRJerks]

What is the red head doing with her mouth? What an oddball …. Angry, book slamming.

[bgill]

I might be back but the cats are begging for baths so I’m outta here.

Y’all have fun.

[cyclotic]

Just another freak.

[Political Junkie Too]

"We deserve a president who is tough, not just tough-talking; one who shatters the boundaries of what's possible, not the boundaries of what's legal... that president is Kamala Harris!"

-PJ

[cyclotic]

A friend of mine wasn’t too impressed with the Republican band. (I liked them)

He’s been a classic rock bar band musician for decades so I’ll defer to his opinion.

[philippa]

I liked them too. Way better than this band, bad fake country music.

[Political Junkie Too]

That band (SixWire) is a highly sought after band for corporate and televised events.

-PJ

[cyclotic]

How much you wanna bet this lady’s dad worked for a democrat run employer?

[isthisnickcool]

I’m not impressed with the Democrats, it’s one fake story and lie after another.

[cyclotic]

Satan is up next

[TornadoAlley3]

Must be expecting a car to drive through there. Blocking.

Don’t matter what they, [the mutants], SAY. What did Iwo Don say? He said “it isn’t his”. Once. That was not a lie. They need to fundraise with the neurotic. That have leftover litter money and are so worried he is going to stop women being married to women they love. Capice?

[cyclotic]

Harris grew up middle class? Yea right.
