Holy shit, that was a lot of booing when he said they were nominating Hillary!

I sense a death knell.

People are booing at Steny the Convention Rules Guy when he said to elect Hillary!

This so satisfying to watch fellas. I'm proud to have voted for Bernie this year!

That must be a record-time for a slavery reference.

DNC Chairman Debbie Wasserman Schultz to resign at the end of the Convention - however, apparently she will be addressing the Democratic delegates.

That'll be fun to watch. The booing will be epic.

EDIT: Within 15 minutes she is now appointed as honorary chairman of the Clinton campaign. Holy fuck, they aren't even trying to hide their contempt for Sanders supporters.[/quote]

By doing this, Clinton alienated a major portion of potential voters. I'm still friends with a lot of liberals online because of my old newspaper affiliations. These people are hopping mad, saying Clinton showed she has no integrity. They feel she should have distanced herself from Wasserman-Schultz.

And come to think of it, why didn't she distance herself? Had Hillary stood up and said "I will have nothing to do with someone who doesn't play fair" she'd have at least appeased some Bernie supporters. Plus, she'd come off looking like she took the moral high ground.

How could no one have told her getting into bed with Wasserman-Schultz would anger people? Who is advising her? Nixon's team?

Mike on Periscope protesting with the Bernie supporters and yelling for them to tear down the wall!

Crowd chanting over a speaker, "NO TPP! NO TPP! NO TPP!" Joblessness and trade are major issues this election, Trump's early anti-TPP will pay major dividends.

The way I understand it, DWS is in bed with Hillary and not the other way around.

DWS was likely an extremely loyal servant to Hillary, everyone knows it, and was forced to fall on her sword for Hillary. Thus, Hillary can't burn her down and distance herself because that would eliminate any loyalty standard for Hillary toward the entirety of her political network. What we and the liberals saw was the best result of an extremely contentious inner-party problem. HRC probably distanced herself as much as was possible, that is to say not a whole heck of a lot.

[hydrogonian]

I'd suggest that we drink every time someone mentions "equality", but I can't afford let alone drink that much alcohol.

[Samseau]

^ Yes but Trump is still saying at his speeches how Hillary sacked her most loyal supporter!

Hillary cannot win this. No matter what she does, she is fucked.

We are watching the left implode in real time.

[Dr. Howard]

Who is this guy speaking? He's wearing a worn out golf shirt to speak at the DNC? This guy is one casual friday mother fucker.

HAHA! The bernie chants while he is talking and he's like...hillary...

[gallia]

just saw this on belgium television (wouldn't have known this was happening otherwise since i've been living in a bunker the past few days), i've been following the elections closely rooting for Trump ,and i'm thoroughly enjoying this shitshow. I kinda wish i still had facebook right now...Just to point and laugh.

Good analysis. Again, this sounds like Nixon-level corruption. What's a shame is the media won't be investigating it since the Washington Post has now been exposed as being in bed with the Democratic National Committee (link to Brietbart story here).

[hydrogonian]

Did she just say "elect our first sister president"?

[Libertas]

Mike's been posting outside, says it's total chaos. They had people standing in line in 100 degree heat and they didn't even bring water to them, not to mention that it's basically on lockdown with free speech being banned anywhere near the venue, unlike the RNC.

Inside, they're getting booed and I expect them to go full-force on SJWism for four days.

As things stand now, Hillary will likely get no post-convention bump as per the norm, and if that happens, Scott was right again and Trump will be running unopposed as long as he doesn't commit any new outrages.

[hydrogonian]

Liquor, Guns, Bacon, and Tits.

It's hard to make "progress" when Islamic terrorists are ventilating you at nightclubs.

And that biatch almost single-handedly got me wasted with her equality mentions.

I know of five cops in Dallas who would have cared to argue.

The Democrats are so incredibly clueless when it comes to their marketing. Putting the opposition's name in a message, and it can read as Trump overcoming hate.

Wow that really is terrible.
Love trumps
Hate DNC
Love hate trumps
Love hate DNC

Besides the fact that they obviously don't realize how weak the message of "Love" is...*especially* in given recent events.

Love can work grassroots (Christian movements, hippy movements, music festivals), but it's not great for a political position...especially Leader of the Free World.

I was curious as to where the iconic square LOVE sign was from and found it was created by a man, Robert Indiana. Of course. I wonder if he got paid any licensing. Probably not.

DNC right now:

   

[Samseau]

A hispanic speaker just said Democrats don't build walls, and right outside of the venue is a massive wall!! The hypocrisy is off the charts.

Really, this is a meltdown. Not even Democrats are this stupid. I'd be surprised if the polls even stay steady after this convention. I'm expecting the polls to go down.

[Libertas]

They're STILL using "love trumps hate?!"



I thought they learned that lesson in May!

Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake!

[hydrogonian]

Democrats don't demonize and manufacture fear?

Jim Kenney, the man speaking now and the Mayor of Philadelphia, recently went on the air to tell the world that Trump supporters want Black people to sit at a different lunch counter.

This guy ran for mayor essentially unopposed in his high crime, all democrat run welfare city. He's a machine politician who could never have been elected in a competitive political environment.
