Maybe people felt he should have stuck to calling out all ethnic and racial hatred and not qualifying it.


+1. black people have suffered racism forever. Why call out antisemitism? Read the room. There are tons of black people in that room.


Tons of Jews (and people of other backgrounds) as well. Antisemitism has been around forever as well.


Indeed but they are a tiny portion of the population.


So because they are a true minority we shouldn’t call out bias against them?

Tell me you’re antisemetic without telling me you’re antisemetic


He's calling out hate for one small group when there are larger groups who have faced bigotry. He should have called out bigotry that encompasses all groups.


NP. You're making the equivalent of an "all lives matter" argument.

And it's all bad. I don't know why some posters feel that the persecution of their group should be paramount


Jews mention antisemitism and they’re accused of making it “paramount.” Can’t make this stuff up. Why do we bother voting Dem?


Because Trump will kill democracy. But it doesn’t make me feel good given the tacit acceptance of antisemitism

I agree! I haven't heard him speak before and thought he did a good job. Kudos to his speech writer.

When did Stephanie Grisham speak? Before prime time?

Since black people have become virtually untouchable, bigots have shifted their ire to Jews and Asians. And people like some of these PPs are OK with that. Such hypocrites. Gross.


I get you now pp, you're a troll

How so? Maybe you are just nuts.

Just ignore the troll.

The FedEx guy made the excellent point that boring old predictable rule of law is good for business. Chaotic, lawless grifting like Trump brings is bad news. Vote Harris.

The whole theme of the beginning of the convention was about racism. Guess what - Jews are facing persecution these days and it should be called out instead of hushed.


Nobody is hushing it

I don't know. Maybe hop on X and ask Schumer why he's a democrat?

Who are you talking to?
I plan on voting.
I don't plan on voting for Trump.
But you seem to think only non voters will be punished.
Or maybe you want them punished because they aren't doing what you want them to.
My point to you there's a reason people don't vote.
People like you have been saying the same thing for decades telling people to vote but ignoring their concerns
Why should they in their view vote for more of the same?

Dems and Reps have been at odds since the parties started. But everyone has a duty to vote. That’s my point. Even if they are bored, or disillusioned, of lazy.

You'll be living in that country too pp.
The reason many are staying home is because they have grown tired of the shaming and fear mongering techniques.
For 20 years now the democratic party has claimed the Republicans were going to strip all our rights and plunge us into a dictatorship.


And lo and behold as soon as one of them became President he got right to it.
