Democratic National Convention August 19-22 (Chicago) - Kamala DNC speech got 22% more viewer than Trump RNC speech

[Rock]

8 people is a borderline WORTHLESS sample.

No. It’s a worthless sample.

I mean yeah from a math angle, it's worthless but to nyc's point, these 'pointless' TV segments don't usually pan out like that.

Everyone' just riding the sugar high!

Imagine thinking this clip is bad for Kamala and wanting so badly to emphasize your brilliant point that you repost your critique at 2:22 AM with video of the crowd going apeshit and her thanking them repeatedly for their support.

 

[RockyMtnHoo]

Thanking someone, and not taking all the credit for yourself, is a foreign concept to Don.

Imagine being sooo wound up after Harris’s speech you call into Fox to complain and they freak out, claim the news version of they have something cooking on the oven that’s going to burn and basically hang up on you, and so you call into NewsMax after Midnight to continue your rant and THEN post your NewsMax rant to make sure people see you melt down …

 

[nycfan]

Imagine wanting more people to know you made this call … you get the gist

LOL at the Trump goons firing a volley at a rumor.

Nothing shows fear like blindly attacking the first thing you think moves, whether it is there or not.

For folks who didn’t see it, Kamala absolutely kicked ass in her address last night.

You don’t get to see people rise to the occasion so forcefully and effectively very often in politics.

I’m sure she’ll have her stumbles in the next 74 days (and beyond) because everyone does, but my goodness I was so damned impressed last night.

She stepped up like MJ in '82.

 

[GQNC]

Wow she just kicked ass

Kamala’s pursuit of kicking ass was anything but half-assed!!! Her mom would be proud!

One common critique was lack of policy details.

And if she had delved into policy details she would have been criticized for being too wonky.

The Hillary critique.

 

[Wheels81]

Strong words from the Presidential historian.

 

[GoHeelsweeeehoooo]

We North Carolina Democrats need Josh Stein to win (arguably the WEAKEST Gubernatorial office in the US); Jeff Jackson to win AG; and, a host more Council of State Offices……….but, what we need to win are legislative seats and end the GOP’s supermajority.

Need Allison Riggs to win as well for State Supreme court

Exactly

 

[aGDevil2k]

Wow. Watching CNN debrief of undecided PA voters — 8 folks undecided, 6 broke to Harris, one guy for Trump and one woman says she just won’t vote. You don’t usually see these things break hard like that.

One common critique was lack of policy details.

If you were undecided, truly, and last night caused you to break for Trump, you weren't undecided at all. You just wanted people to think you had ethics but you really have zero

[aGDevil2k]

Those speeches aren't the time for policy specifics. You set goals. Specs come later

 

[altmin]

If you were undecided, truly, and last night caused you to break for Trump, you weren't undecided at all. You just wanted people to think you had ethics but you really have zero

yup. or you were undecided between Trump and not voting.

I've been extremely skeptical of these "focus groups" since Trump's first run in 2016. In 2016 or 2020 CNN got fooled by a focus group of of supposedly undecided women voters, and it turned out that they were all Republicans and Trump supporters. After nine years of Trump I find it highly unlikely that any of these "undecideds" are sincere. I mean, it's nice that 6 or 7 of them decided to support Kamala, but you could tell from the way that some of them were talking that they were already leaning that way, and probably weren't truly undecided at all.
