2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.

I find Isbell insteresting becuase he's on tour with Zach Bryan right now, looks like they have tonight off. So becuase this is important to him, he busted his ass to be there and be back in MO for a show tomorrow, OR Bryan, who is on the liberal side of country from what I can tell, let him take a day or two off becuase it was important to Isbell. Either way, interesting stuff.

I'm not sure Isbell moves the needles with rurals anymore though, I think his reputuation has been thoroughly drug through the conservative mud.

I know many people who should take Vlad up on this most generous offer. Don't know Alex but he should totally go be war fodder hero for Russia.

What I love about Isbell is he will just tell MAGA people that he doesn't need them as fans and they can just peace out

I have been telling people that if they didn’t like America they should do that for 40 years. Glad Putin is making it official.

Should I know who Jason Isbell is?

I do. And no. 

Not to pile on but I too don't get why Hillary is a featured speaker. Have any other failed candidates ever spoken? Adlai Stevenson?  Mondale?  Gore? All of them had bonafides comparable to Hillary.  Does she bring any votes to the table? What value does she add?

The Clintons, the Obamas, the Bidens raise a lot of money for the party. Also the convention itself is for people extremely into politics. The trick is to balance things out for the folks at home because there's a ton of external enthusiasm. But if you think you may be upset about who's on the list for the Democratic Convention, pretend you're a republican for a minute and go look at the roster of speakers they had for theirs. 

I’m fine with Hillary speaking, and glad they scheduled her the first night with Joe so they can move on.

Every time a Republican opens their mouth these days I think about the “You are not serious people” line from Succession.

Yeah, I think about that line a lot.  It describes a huge swath of our country.

Anyone who says, oh Hillary is speaking at the dnc, that settles it I'm not voting for kamala, it's looking for an excuse not to vote for her to begin with. Let Hillary have one last moment. She'll say good things about Harris, and will trash Dotard. If anyone even remembers what she actually says, it'll be because she blew it out of the water.

My assumption is that voters that the Dems could still pull in likely hate HRC more than they like a political party being loyal to older politicians.

I'd have her roaming the convention.

Like Tom Cruise roamed the Olympics.

This is probably the last major public speech Hillary Clinton ever makes.

If she didn't get a spot, that would be the big story of the convention. It would be beyond awkward.

It’s a god damn speech on night 1. Who cares. Night 1 may as well be called “sending the geezers to the home”

Who gives a fuck, honestly?

Hillary still brings in a shit ton of money, and yes, they are “Hillary voters” who are mostly Whites (women, men, and gays) who, for some, might be in on Kamala but not in on funding. Hillary can still influence a lot of people. 

Her speaking on the first night will be forgotten by Wednesday

Her coverage will send Trump into saying/tweeting a bunch of things he shouldn't.  Any chance to show him more unhinged, vindictive, bitter the better.

I mean, let’s also not forget that Hillary got way more of the popular vote than Donald. She’s old news, but it’s not like she’s toxic to the Harris campaign.

Bryan seems to be rotating opening acts fairly often. Don't know if Isbell asked for breaks or what, but Isbell opened for him in Houston a couple weeks ago , but not San Antonio a few nights later.

Trumper hadn't heard about the MOH comments from Trump. His friend shows it to him. He's no longer a Trumper.

She should walk out, enjoy the applause, lean into the microphone and say "The Republicans are weird.  Hillary out!" And walk away.

I wonder if he talks like that all the time. Like if you ask him what he wants for lunch. "Well my brother! That is a very INTERESTING question! Because LUNCH my brother, is the primary reason YOU and I are here today.....!"

HIllary is in one of the dark slots on the card, before the networks show up. Let her talk, then get her out of the way.
