Chicago is the perfect example of what the Democrats can achieve.

My dad was Republican and he was shot in the head during WWII.
He survived and went on to live a nice life.
However, he would be turning over in his grave if he were to see the Republican party today.

What’s clear to me as a republican is how unified the democrats are (exception being Israel) and how fragmented us republicans are right now.

Just a reminder, while we paid double for groceries and gasoline corporations made record breaking profits in 2022 and again in 2023.

Trump has already been president for four years, Kamala has already been in the white house for four years. Which four years was better? You think that just came out of a coconut tree? 😂😂

It's wierd that trump don't like union members striking for better deals but he strikes for better deals all the time. His union is just a more family and friends exclusive union.

The look on Jesse Jackson's face, he fought for this moment for most of his life, I'm glad he got to be there to see it ❤❤❤

As she was walking off the stage, my 70 year old father just said: “There goes the 48th President of the United States.” 🇺🇸

[winstongotsole]

She nailed it again. JJ’s face says it all - he’s not heard that kind of passion and conviction for many decades. For Lincoln, for Kennedy, for MLK, for every other patriot who died defending the constitution the evil of Trump’s horrible vision which would destroy the freedoms and liberties of all - must be stopped!

Chicago, Portland, San Francisco shining examples of when Democrats win.😂

She call Trump a busta and she ain’t lying

The problem is how obsessed and jubilant Americans are about politics. It is basically a religion of subserviance and head nodding.

You have to get off the gun control deal!

There's not enough cops who care about the Constitution!

[sayitloudblcknproud]

I haven’t heard ANY cheers like that for Trump or any of his speakers! Lol! 😂

[conansredbowtie]

I don't know whose spirit she was channeling but AOC was going HORD. My favorite speech so far 😂

[psychotropy]

An American politician talking about "fighting" against corporations is such a joke.

Barack Obama was the 44th president of the United States, taking office on January 1, 2009. George Washington was the 1st president of the United States and took office in April 1798. When Obama took the presidency, the Republic existed already 220, and the 43 presidents before Obama had bequeathed him an accumulated internal debt of US$ 5 trillion. In just 8 years (2 4-year terms), Barack Obama QUADRUPLED the U.S. domestic debt. US$ 5 trillion accumulated in 220 years, turned into US$ 20 trillion.

You should know better than that... "he knows economy"... he'll sell the USA for a $1.25
