[Optimus Prime]

Several prominent Democratic figures are set to speak at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago this month, two sources familiar with the plans told NBC News.

President Joe Biden, former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have been confirmed as speakers at the convention. Obama and the Clintons delivered speeches during the 2020 DNC, which was largely held virtually to prevent the spread of Covid-19 amid the pandemic.

A source familiar said that former President Jimmy Carter’s grandson Jason Carter is also confirmed to be speaking as a representative for his grandfather…….

Democratic National Convention speakers include Biden, Obama and the Clintons

Vice President Kamala Harris is set to formally accept the Democratic Party’s nomination at the convention, which will kick off in Chicago on Aug. 19.

And MAGA world is still astonished that nobody ever mentioned the assassination attempt. Maybe because it was R on R violence and didn’t have anything to do with Dems?

What are these Republicans watching? There’s been PLENTY of mention of gun violence.

It was hard to tell before the decision but Walz was absolutely the right choice. It reflects well on Kamala’s judgment.

And her confidence in herself. I also read that a bunch of Biden political folk met with her and offered their help - it was stop saying We’re Not Going Back and focus on the future, and quit calling them weird. She just listened and decided to not follow their advice.

Anyone advising to stop with “We’re not going back” needs to be fired or demoted.

According to the official schedule - there are still lots of speakers to come.

Kinzinger, Cooper, Harris’ sister, maybe that’s it, of course the Beyoncé performance, lol.

This is a very good speech by Kinzinger!

 

[MT15]

Kinzinger is doing a great job. Maybe he can campaign for Harris throughout the red states?

 

[MT15]

Oh, and I just saw a tweet saying that Beyoncé will NOT appear. Well, someone was in that motorcade.

The tweet looked a bit sketchy though. From something called The Hollywood Reporter, and it was a denial from her “rep”.

 

[MT15]

After this - just Roy Cooper, I think.

He should just switch to D and try running in a conservative leaning state or district.

 

[MT15]

This guy is funny…

 

[MT15]

Roy getting this slot is a testament to how much Harris likes him.

 

[MT15]

As someone said on Twitter - maybe the surprise guest was the friends we made along the way, lol.

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Happy I got inflight Wi-Fi. I would've missed this.

 

[MT15]

So now we know the rest of the story…

 

[SystemShock]

I don't get the Beyonce worship. Or Taylor Swift's... or any entertainer's.

The real The Hollywood Reporter is a legitimate entertainment industry magazine. I have no idea about the report itself.

 

[MT15]

I love, love, love her characterization of Trump. Spot on!

Donald Trump is an unserious person. But the consequences of putting him back in the White House are extremely serious.

(going from memory here).

Perfect.

No worship - just sorta a fun thing to think about.
