    First the Olympics and now this. I am excited about the Democratic National Convention.

    I feel like winning. 🥇

  3. One of the pleasant benefits of Kamala running is the end of the pointless articles getting spammed saying “Micheal Obama is the only one who can beat trump”. Pretty obvious those were articles to make voters miss the Obama’s and then sit out the election.

    For the first time ever, I may actually watch this. Politics have been stressing me out so much that I haven’t been able to listen to anyone speak.

    But now it’s nice listening to people and politicians who actually show the human side of themselves when they speak.

  5. I’m looking forward to see what kind of theory the WYG1WQAK7 crowd comes up with as to how this means Michelle is going to steal the nomination.

  6. For the love of god, don’t bring back the “They go low, we go high” bullshit. That set Democratic strategy back decades.

  7. She should say something along the lines of ” As a fellow black woman and mother…” and make republican heads explode.

    Michelle will speak at the DNC? Get the popcorn! I’m expecting some fresh new conspiracy theories from the MAGA nuts.

  9. It’s great to see Michelle speaking here but they really should have left the Clintons out of this. It’s just going to open a line of attack against the Democrats as the establishment party. Especially with Hillary losing to trump she shouldn’t be anywhere near that stage.

    Right-wing trolls are going to be in overdrive during DNC convention. The amount of astroturfing and propaganda cherry picking short phrases to try and divide the left is going to be massive. More so than usual too since the GOP is getting real nervous about losing, and possibly losing big.

  11. They should have Elliot Page and Laverne Cox introduce her. Just to troll the weirdos.
