She is crushing it!
It's just another empty Obama speechwriter teleprompter read. The general public is easily appeased.
Were you actually watching it?? She DELIVERED an emotional and pragmatic vision for America, and she plainly and clearly laid out her platform. We had friends over last night to watch it and we were standing UP by the end.
Like, this quote will go down in history and I am so glad I saw it live:
Yes. I watched it. She tried to out Republican the Republicans.
Who are these people? Congrats, you quoted other morons who also didn't pay attention
Did you really listen to the speech?
Even her daughter refused to clap during her "most lethal military" remarks.

No seriously, if THIS is your takeaway (I can only assume since you keep quoting other people) then you didn't pay attention. Try again, and actually watch the whole thing. All 40 minutes, don't skim, don't use the YouTube tracker to find the most viral moments. Go to your living room, put her speech up on the TV, put your phone down, and actually watch it ✌️
I watched it live. The first half about her story was regular fluff and fine then she went crazy about the military, Israel, and acted like Gaza was suffering from a simple natural disaster.
Hmm, this was about 7 minutes since I suggested you rewatch it... Seems like you didn't
Here you go

Here try this one, without the manipulative bullshitters to distract you and tell you what to think. Try using your own brain to form an opinion. You can do it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezXRXs9Ogpk
Where were the lies? It's not manipulative bullshit. Krystal used to be on MSNBC, David Sirota is an award winning journalist and Dem advisor, and Ryan Grim also an award winning journalist and helped create The Intercept.
I don't care about what these nobodies think about Kamala lol, I'm capable of forming my own opinion. I just need to listen to her words. Try it
