She is more "blue collar" than Trump.

She had a single mother and herself worked "teen" jobs, went to Howard for undergrad and then went to law school and work in the San Fran Prosecutors office.

I missed the part where Trump ever billed himself as a blue collar kid, lol. Very interesting how the Harris/ Walz team are selling themselves.

Harris & Walz had pretty ordinary childhoods. Trump was the millionaire child of a slumlord so notorious he was name-checked in a Woody Guthrie song.

They have consistently released the ratings all week. They've outperformed the RNC convention every night on Nielsen ratings and I'm sure last night will be the same. And Nielsen ratings don't even account for people who streamed online -- Harris' base is younger and more educated than Trump's so the higher TV ratings likely don't even include a large chunk of viewers who just streamed the speeches straight from the DNC website or YouTube.

They are "hidding" nothing. The convention was a huge success and they will talk up that success at every opportunity because they are running a tight and professional presidential campaign. Trump on the other hand is hiding a lot of stuff and his campaign is a mess. Good luck soldier -- you picked the wrong side.

Here's a little secret....

I am a Trump supporter who tuned into some of the coverage to see if they talked about policy.

You know what I didn't hear? Talk about policy. Platitudes about "focusing on the middle class" doesn't cut it. That is not policy. It is not a strategy or a plan. In fact, based on her last 3 1/2 years, it's a lie.

You're a Trump voter. Of course you weren't going to find what you wanted at the Dem convention. We didn't even have Hulk Hogan there for gd's sake.

No, but we did have the Chicks singing an off key National Anthem.

She lived in a multicultural red-lined neighborhood. Her single mom, her, and her sister lived in an apartment above a daycare. She was bused to school. Her neighbors were firefighters. The village that helped raise her was blue collar. Even if her parents were professionals she didn't grow up in a white collar environmental.

Also, do you really think her minority parents were paid equal pay to other researchers and professors? Her speech didn't say blue collar, she said middle class.

From 12-17 she lived in Montreal while her mother was a professor at McGill. Crickets about that in her speech because it doesn’t fit the narrative.

Just stop.

It’s all they have. She hit it out of the park last night. The democrats did something amazing in their convention- defined their politics as the rightful politics of the United States. The trolls attacks therefore look even weaker and smaller than usual. 2.5 months is an eternity in politics. She could stumble and the race could change again. Nothing is in the bag. But right now? They have nothing. And they know it.

No. Objectively, she did not "hit it out of the park." She did not appear to be drunk and she managed through a short speech, after saying thank you 25+ times, which is an accomplishment for her, I guess.

Game on. I'm for Trump and like our position at this point.

No one who shot at beer. No one who tried to overthrow our government. Barely worth being called a convention, if I'm honest.

I wish they had numbers on how many Democrats watched the RNC VS how many Republicans watched the DNC.

Cannot and will not vote for either Harris or Trump.

Truth bomb.

No one with a conscience can vote for either of them. No way.

Oh lookie, another stooge trying to trick us into staying home and electing Trump.

lol it’s so transparent at this point

Almost as transparent as claiming Beyonce was coming just so people didn’t leave early before Kamala.

Please show me where the DNC said Beyoncé is coming. I asked for this before but got crickets.

That's how rumors work, genius. They promoted a rumor, it gets picked up, and gullible people believe it.
And, there were tons of gullible people in the arena last night.

You think that the people attending the Democratic National Convention (you know, the die hard politicos and the press) stuck around to their nominee (you know the highlight of the convention) simply because of a rumor about Beyoncé?

You're right. It's the most consequential election in recent years.

It's great that the Trump supporters are complacent. The polling in PA, MI, WI, AZ, NV, NC, and GA is catastrophic for the GOP presently. I'm glad this poster likes their position. Don't change anything, little buddy.

Including that would not have taken away from her speech. Sad that her mother had to leave America for a better lifestyle.

Tweens don't get to pick where they live. What is important is that when she could decide for herself, she returned to America to attend Howard University (HBCU) and selected a career of service.

And by the way, where was her father on the biggest night of her life? Oh that's right. They hate each other.

That's an assumption, but as someone who posts on DCUM , you should know that family relationship are complicated. Plenty of people can relate to a strained relationship with a parent.

And by the way, I want to tell you a secret...Mrs. Trump can't stand her husband.

You might want to rethink that talking point, given that your candidate literally overthrew a sitting president.
