luanne, same here. i never watched a convention before. this one just felt too important not to, plus i really did enjoy every speech i saw (i didn't see every single one, but most of them).
the sad part is that the diehards on team DT will never have enough of a heart to really hear the powerful words of the DNC speeches. they will hear hate and divisiveness on their convention and a lot of making fun of our side. but no actual substance.

since dejoy will be speaking at the RNC, i hope he brags a whole bunch about his role in voter suppression so that it can be all the more obvious (not that it isn't already) that he is doing his master's bidding.

Don trump is such a fool he probably picked her figuring he would please the ladies and they'd vote for him. Proof positive he doesn't know a damn thing about her or the museum, or thinking women.
Once again it's all about him, him, and nobody but him.
Such a disgusting human being. A creepy evil clown.
The dejoy character appears to be an obnoxious, smug thing. What am I thinking? That's everyone connected with the evil coward, I mean clown.

My credit card just closed so I am now starting to make political donations. First was to the Biden/Harris campaign. There are a couple of local candidates I'm going to donate to, and I want to donate to Mark Kelly in Arizona. I think there are a couple of others as well.

Excellent! They look and sound as great as they did back then.
I loved that song and love them. I like the new lyrics too! Biden and Harris train.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane and some hope for the future.

I've also been donating to out of state senate contests, especially the closer than expected races - for example Jaime Harrison against Lindsey Graham

And another thing. I've never seen barbed wire around the White House. Have any of you? It's creepy and troublesome. Sad too. What's next a moat with live alligators? This guy is one Hell of a wimp. Barbed wire around The Peoples House? It's creeping me out so damn much. I checked on snopes and it says the pictures of barbed wire around the WH fence are photoshopped. It says the only fence was the one put up during the Lafayette square protests but they all got decorated by protesters so it actually looked pretty cool thanks to everyone willing to speak up and show that man he has no power to keep us down and silent.

All done with the donations, for now.
Biden/Harris
Xochitl Torres Small (New Mexico, running for re-election in Congress). She narrowly beat the GOP candidate in a district that has been Red forever. She is running against the same candidate this time. She's not my district, but I'd like to see her keep her seat. Last time around her opponent ran on how pro-Trump she is. This time she's taking a page from Xochitl's book and talking about how she'll work across the aisle.
Mark Kelly
Amy McGrath
Jamie Harrison

Yes, McGrath, also MJ Hegur (against Cornyn) in TX, and Doug Jones in AL
