Rifts Emerge Between Establishment Media, Democrats as DNC Problems Turn into Debacle
Breitbart ^ | 08/20/2024 | Matthew Boyle

Establishment media outlets are signaling that Democrat presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris’s honeymoon phase is over after the first day of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) saw major issues with logistics and operations.

Several media figures from across the spectrum began publicly criticizing and even openly mocking Democrats for their mistakes at the DNC, particularly with regard to press operations and workspace but also with regard to the flow of convention programming that went far too long on Monday evening. The derailed convention programming, which was far behind schedule, led to President Joe Biden–the sitting president of the United States–being pushed until nearly 11:30 p.m. eastern time before he finally took the stage late Monday evening. Democrats even canceled planned speeches from Reps. Grace Meng (D-NY) and Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and a planned performance from award-winning musician James Taylor.

Biden spoke so late for him that I think they just woke him up early for it.

I was still awake when they scrubbed speakers to hurried get Joe on before the Adderall cocktail wore off. This convention is only going to get better. Lol.

The Dems in attendance were more interested in their box dinners than the speakers. It looks like many were provided special seating, double wides.

Don’t get excited. The media will ALWAYS hate the GOP a whole lot more. This just constitutes a lovers’ spat.

James Taylor got canceled?

I remember he sang at the White House party to celebrate the Inflation Reduction Act. Too bad he didn’t get his chance at the convention..

Biden’s going on late was by design.

Obama is going to explain how he is fighting climate change by jetting between his Martha’s Vineyard mansion and his Hawaii mansion.

The press whores for the democrat party - there’s ZERO chance the press will stop kissing democrat butt... or any other body part.

Would have been better off cancelling everyone and just letting JT sing for 3 hours.

Sum Ting Wong.

CNN trashing Commie-la’s economic plan, Andrea Mitchell fact-checking Walz. Honesty is breaking out unexpectedly.

Maybe some of them are getting cold feet re: suiciding America when reality bites.

Some of them actually have kids and family too. They also drive cars and pay bills.

Any Toastmaster knows EVERY speech runs longer than anticipated because you always end up adding things in that you hadn’t intended to say. Unless you’re just reading the “speech.”

Wasserman Schultz got canceled?

Too bad America didn’t get to hear her words of wisdom.

Maybe she’s not too high in the pecking order, to get canceled.

I cant stand JT since he was Obama’s ambassador to Europe after the Paris terrorist attack in 2015. Really? People died and Obama/Kerry sends JT to sing ‘You’ve got a Friend?’
