Official Democratic National Convention topic!

[pErvinalia]

Just turn the whole thing into an epic episode of WWE.

This is getting really amusing. Not just the DNC, the RNC was a hoot too. And this election - this is going to be the biggest, most epicest fucking mudslinging cage match EVAR! I haven't had this much fun in yonks.

I wanna see a punch up between Trumpoids and Berniebros. Fucking ball caps and fedoras all over the place. Post-modern intersectional feminist lesbians ripping the hair extensions out the heads of the Daughters of the Confederacy. There'll be weaves on the ground, man. The Vegan Alliance -vs- the Texas Cattleman's Association.

The possibilities are literally endless. ROCK & ROLL!

Sorry to disappoint you but Trump supporters are law abiding citizens but for everyone else there will be kick offs aplenty. So get your analyst on danger money.

DNC chairwoman dropped from the convention over the emails.

Bern Baby Bern.

No riots yet

Still mostly peaceful protests, no arrests, just 50 or so cautions for civil disobedience. Clinton still getting boos in the convention when her name is mentioned.

The real trouble, if there is any, will be on the last day when clinton accepts the nomination and speaks. Anything but perfect unity won't look good since it's the acceptance speech that is widely viewed and examined.

Trump gave a good speech that was widely seen as positive for him, so there's already high expectations that she'll have to deliver.

Fingers crossed that someone will start throwing stones at the cops eh?

[pErvinalia]

I'm watching Tim Kaine speak now live. He's a bit of a weirdo. He's also a god botherer too, by the sounds of it. Bleating on about how God put all the diversity of people there together in the US.

This clown and Hillary are going to lose. Democratic Party should be disbanded after this.

[Brian Peacock]

What? And leave Fox News unopposed?

[JimC]

A Stalinist purge would be just the ticket!

Shit, it's getting all Kumbaya and chummy now. I was looking for a replay of '68. Where's the Weatherman Faction or the Red Army Brigade when you need them? Radicals these days are such a bunch of pussies, man, there hasn't been a whiff of CS and the National Guard are sitting at home watching reruns of Cops. To say I'm disappointed with the youth of today would be a terrible understatement. Bunch of Pokémon chasing, mochachino skinny latte drinking, metrosexual girl's blouses, the lot. Honestly, THIS is protest? What next, they gonna stop eating their vegetables? Refuse to put their heads down on their desks at naptime? Hell no, we won't nap! Fuck dude, when WE were protesting it was because they were shipping us all off to get killed in some Southeast Asian hellhole, not because we were worried about what our student loans would do to our credit ratings or because somebody culturally appropriated our hairdo.

What a sad state of affairs. No, sad doesn't cut it, it's dismal. Yes, it's a fucking dismal state of affairs, folks, and no relief in sight.

[pErvinalia]

Yeah, lots of stuff about we just need to love one and other. Not quite the freak show that was the RNC, but not qualitatively that different.

[Tyrannical]

And, Bernie quits the Democratic party and goes back to being a commu, err, independent.

[pErvinalia]

No, the Bern can set up his own party. Silly old coot should have run as an independent after it was clear he wasn't going to win the Dem nomination. All polls show him beating Trump by a wide margin.

[JimC]

But that was running as a dem, not an independent. I have the impression that a lot of yanks shy away from voting for a candidate who is not from one or other of the big two parties...
