This criticism is legit. No clue why Biden didn't fire the faux wonderkid - Jake Sullivan - who keeps failing up.

Gold Star Families are notoriously protective of the memories of their loved ones. Those families would not be there unless they felt so strongly about how and why their loved ones died. The entire convention is saying their names.

This kind of thing at a political event nauseates me.

Why? Marines who gave their lives for our country can’t be represented by their loved ones and have their stories told? Why does that make you sick?

Of course they should have their stories told. They should be honored at appropriate events by people who care. Having it at this convention makes it seem gimmicky. You know these politicians don't really give two sheets about these families. They are using them for a photo op. It cheapens it. It feels...wrong.

I can't wait to repeat some of these posts on the future DNC thread. So many fake photo ops and corny moments to come!

She's not a nice lady. She's an a-hole married to an a-hole and is probably fine with him being an a-hole so she can "live her American dream" AKA get rich and brag to her parents' friends back in India.

Do you know them personally?

Not the PP, but my parents know her family (specifically her grandfather, who helped my father when he was an undergraduate student in India). They are good people.

You’ve never heard the Tale of Cornpop?

You’re in for treat, my friend. Brew a cup of sleepy time tea, and listen to this, a Joe Biden certified hood classic.

Which was later confirmed to be semi true and certainly far truer than any, “sir, he comes up to me, with tears in his eyes, sir…” but never interrupt a maga when they think they’re landing a joke.

"Semi true" Just admit - you're triggered by this. Or maybe, get a sense of humor.

How sweet, JD Vance’s grandmas owned 19 guns and threatened to murder his drug dealing friend in high school. She was raising JD because his mom was a drug addict, who first gave birth at the age of 19. His father abandoned the family when he was a toddler.

Do you think he might have some baggage or psych issues? Well, Trump picked him to be a heartbeat away from the nuclear codes. With a President who will turn 80 in office. Vance is only in his 30’s. Not at all a reassuring choice to me.

Thank you for sharing. I’m a Dem and definitely voting for Biden but I enjoyed watching this event. There were some lovely and heartwarming moments.

I think it helps remind me that we are all human and although we don’t agree politically we are all Americans and should stand together. There must be balance and common ground.

Vance just promised to serve Trump. Not the American people (who would be paying bus salary), or the Constitution.

Pretty scary.

She's a beautiful woman, but that's a real rolled out of bed and worked all day, prepped dinner and did a load of laundry look.

LOL. She's not that beautiful.

Eh, I like good bone structure, a great smile, and all that. But I was a little like, did you mix up the dates in the calendar and have to scramble?

I hear you but she has none of those things.

Why is she in a like, jersey body-con dress? She looks like she's going to dinner at the beach.

That greige thing was Monday. With the frumpy flats. I haven't seen her today.

She's in a beautiful blue dress and looks fantastic.

No problem. I agree that just because we are Democrats does not mean we can't appreciate sparks of goodness irrespective of party.

And I think it would surprise you how few "hops" away we all are from these highly visible people. For example, my BIL went to school with Ramaswamy's nephew, and I heard that they basically don't speak to Ramaswamy anymore. Very sad if you think about it.

God JD's speech was a snoozefest. Talk about low energy.

He’s joined the Trump mafia family. That’s who he’s loyal to now.

+1 And I thought Usha looked gorgeous in that blue dress. They also seem like a genuinely loving couple.

Is there anyone remotely normal in the Republican party? It just seems to be a conveyor belt of wackjobs. Where do they all come from? I don’t meet people like this in real life.

JD was so boring. Positive is that I am ready to go to bed now.
