I don't know if anyone else mentioned it, but the tone of the two conventions is night and day. The DNC so far has been mostly about optimism and the RNC was mostly about doom, gloom, and frothing hatred.

It's nice to be reminded how different the two parties are sometimes. The Republicans really have just gone off the deep end.

Repub rank & file are in deep denial & ideologically bereft, empty. Repub economic policy & Neocon foreign policy brought us to this juncture. Over the last 35 years they changed America, changed the way that the fruits of capitalism are distributed, changed the reasons for having military pre-eminence. Then they engaged in congressional obstructionism to hold onto it, puffed up a string of faux scandals & conspiracy theories to make it even more emotional.

There's little to like about it other than for the international financial elite.

So who do they follow? Trump, who just offers more of the same, harder & deeper. More fatcat tax cuts. Bigger military. Fewer financial regulations. More irrational Savior/ Leader Cult adulation. More xenophobia. More divisive hatred.

If Trump pulled his dick out & waved it around on stage they'd cheer.

No, that's not what it shows. What it shows is that as bad as he his, the person he's running against is even worse. We're picking between two lousy alternatives, but she's so horrible I can't imagine picking her over any of the possible candidates other than Ted Cruz. I consider her and Ted to be in the same league of horrible. The rest just a step up from that.

Some of the finest CBD rationalization on display here folks. I guarantee if Ted Cruz had the nomination you'd being rationalizing how Hillary is worse than him.

What's really funny, is that Trump is easily a more corrupt individual than Ted Cruz just going by what we know at this point.

Nope, he's in the same cesspool as she is, but he's a religious fundie on top of it, so I'd actually prefer her over Ted. At least with her we know she's a corrupt lying scumbag, but she's not trying to package it into a religious calling.

I feel the same way.

Elizabeth Warren seems to be doing an excellent job. Legendkiller will likely point out that he heard boos - they were booing Trump.

The chants of "We trusted you!" when Warren was talking was people booing Trump?

Oh my. That's quite a spin.

Bernie is killing it.

99% of the people in attendance are only there because of Bernie. He served his puppet role to populate what would otherwise be another empty HRC event. Good to see HRC getting her money's worth.

Not to worry, when the media gets their talking points from the DNC and HRC campaign they will be sure to dote all over it

From what I saw last night it was being mentioned pretty much during the convention as it was happening. Obviously the DNC got advanced notice out to everyone. Or, you know, it was just obvious to anyone with a brain.

Do you actually believe this nonsense?

Also, do you have the money you owe me?

Look at the pictures of the audience for the RNC. Now look at the pictures of tonight's DNC. At the RNC you saw people over forty, that did not need to be bused in, they were educated, had raised families, had jobs, were veterans from WWII, to now, were well dressed, and came with their own patriotic regalia, many were retired, they did not, inside, or outside incite violence, and no one was looking for a hand out. Those were the people that built, supported, and fought for America.
Look at the crowd tonight, see the difference?

Hmmm... I saw Americans in both crowds. WTF does it matter what they look like?

You mean the money you owe me? You're delusional if you think HRC will become president.

Actually.. ignoring the fact that literally every speaker but Bernie was boo'd by the crowd so bad they had to spam music to drown it out shows your level of willful oblivion has entered the stratosphere.

Uhmm, our bet was that Sanders would win the nomination. He didn't. Are you backing out?

Also, your perspective on the speeches last night is delusional.

Michelle Obama is very well spoken. Melania sounds like she just moved to America yesterday. Michelle is also educated and Melania is not. Well...atleast she has plenty of nude photos out there. It got her pretty far, obviously...she has a chance to be a First Lady. Probably the first one in history to have skanky photos of herself online.


But lets put class back into the white house lol I think Trump may be the first Pres hopeful that has 5 kids by 3 baby mamas.

Only in America... Can you be stripped of your Miss America title for nude photos (a company Donald owned from 1996 to 2015) yet is perfectly OK with the potential FLOTUS to have circulating all over the Internet.

Does you history revision bullshit usually fly? Just curious.

Dude is obviously off his meds.

Did you even watch the event? I watched the entire thing. At a very loud volume.

Find me a single time anyone chanted Clinton. Then, when you come back unable to I will send you a dozen chants of "WE TRUSTED YOU", "LOCK HER UP", "BERNIE", and "TRUMP". Those aren't even starting on the massive number of times people, such as Sarah Silverman, were boo'd into shutting up.

Stop watching the spoon fed corrupt media's sound bytes and watch the actual video before you look even more misinformed than the majority here with their blinders on, please.

I don't get the dog-whistle thing...

Okay, let's unpack what he says.

Look at the pictures of the audience for the RNC. Now look at the pictures of tonight's DNC.

So this is based 100% on appearance.

At the RNC you saw people over forty

I'm incredulous that the DNC didn't have people over 40, but okay.

that did not need to be bused in

Wait, what? How could you tell from a picture if someone needed to be "bused" in.

they were educated, had raised families, had jobs, were veterans from WWII, to now

None of these things can be gleaned from someone's appearance, but all of them, except the veteran one, involve racial stereotypes.

were well dressed, and came with their own patriotic regalia

Okay, at least that is relating to appearance. But I'd like to see what photos the poster is referring to. I wonder if they were actually poorly dressed, or simply dressed in a way that the poster didn't approve of.

many were retired,

Again, impossible to glean from photos.

they did not, inside, or outside incite violence, and no one was looking for a hand out.

I haven't heard of anyone inciting violence at the DNC, have you? "Looking for a handout" is another straight up racial stereotype, and not something you can get from a photo unless you're inferring that based on their... appearance...

Those were the people that built, supported, and fought for America.
Look at the crowd tonight, see the difference?


Yes, of course we see the difference.
