LOL Democrats - Tik Tok on the clock, but the party don't stop

DNC hasn’t been open about this yet, but I can do some quick maths.

On day 2 the convention program is 2 hours and there are 7 speakers. Neither Harris nor Biden (two people who might be expected to speak longer) will speak that day. Assuming that about half the time goes to the speeches, the other 6 speakers will have about 10 minutes on average.

Inexplicably. What a weird take

Sure, if you’re attending it for a discussion on historical realism.

Hint: anybody going to the theater for historical realism instead of… I dunno, entertainment or something… is an idiot.

Can you give some examples? Because for the most part, I’m guessing I probably would

I call most of the public idiots. That wouldn’t be out of character for me

Confession: I only learned Hamilton was the rapping forefathers thing like late 2018.

wut, i learned this like when it came out on disney+

When was that?

What I mean is I knew there was a rapping forefathers thing and a thing called Hamilton everybody loved for a long time before I realized they were the same thing.

I mean they also strangled the captured chiefs to death at the end of the parade.

Here’s one Economist/YouGov poll

Looks like Yang has been added as a speaker, on the final night of the convention.

They’re going to give him like 15 seconds, I assume?

I mean my vote is essentially meaningless. I read an article stating that a voter in New York state has just a 1 in 10 billion chance of being the deciding vote in the presidential election. It wasn’t free to mail in the absentee ballot application like the printed out envelope said it would be.

I just vote to say I did. I mean I could just lie and save myself some time and money but fuck it.

EDIT: Here’s the article. Co-authored by Nate Silver to boot
