It was. Unfortunately Doug is not a great speaker.

The spirited roll call was the high point so far. Hopefully the Obamas can end the night strong.


Disagree — he’s great. A good mix of self deprecating humor and content


He's super goofy, but he seems really genuine and sincere.

I finally figured out that he reminds me of Seth Rogen - remember that movie with Rogen and Charlize Theron as Secretary of State? Long Shot. Kamala and Doug are that movie.

It speaks well of Kamala, I think, that she chose such a mensch instead of some slick alpha male.

He thanks her and she teared up. Stop gaslighting.

The crowd is going nuts for her.


There was polling before Biden dropped out that she was the only one who could beat Trump. This is entirely why


Kamala can beat Donald. Every day she’s out there being normal while Trump is weird, old, and angry, Harris gets stronger and Trump gets smaller.

Is it bad that part of me wishes that she were the Democratic nominee?

Agree. He seems very authentic and down to earth.

More of this. Less of Bernie.


+1 Bernie’s moment has passed.



I'm actually quite fond of Bernie and his speech. What did he say wrong?
some progressive stuff.

Dems need to appeal to moderates. Why can't they understand that?

They just can’t. They’ve gone so far radical left, it’s already too late for them to recover.

Michelle Obama is bringing it so hard.

And no one can tell me that she didn't know exactly what she was doing with that dress.

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.


There are tons of Jews in the room too.

This topic is contentious. This convention is about unity. Not sure this is the right place to give a speech about it. I hate that jews think one is antisemetic if one doesnt support what Israel is doing. It's like one cannot have a brain and their own opinions and must agree with Israel or else one must be antisemetic.


unless you are Jewish you are unaware of everyday Jews being threatened or feeling threatened by Israel hate. Your take is simplistic. I mean this with goodwill, please do some reading or talking to people.
We need to hear others’ stories—everyone’s.


And if dems stand for ending hate, that includes hate against Jews. Except, that’s not how they’re acting

Though the reaction to Doug was a bit better…

He’s still friends with his ex, who has endorsed Kamala. Go away.


Yeah, I think his wife and kids know a bit more about the man than you.

Oh totally agree… but there was certainly doubt before she became the de facto candidate

Sort of. She doesn't want it ever. Kamala does.

I’ll bet Doug was hell to go up against if a jury was involved. Those preening lawyers don’t do well against a guy like him.
