That lady just lost her only child a month ago and had such poise. It was amazing.

 

[Fracas]

Reminded me of when the Republicans brought on the mother of a victim from the benghazi attack. At least she didn't bash Trump and focused on solutions instead. Good and touching words, hope it leads to action. (It won't but it's nice to hope at least)

 

[Vire]

Oh yeah, this is the guy who filibustered all day.

 

[User1608]

Thank you for calling out Republicans specifically, Chris.

 

[Justin]

Also, her son was a huge Hillary supporter.

Also the the son was a pretty much astranged from the mother because she was unhinged and he even would post her crazy right wing conspiracy emails online she would send him. She clearly has some kind of mental condition the GOP is exploiting.

Yep, these is a vast difference between blaming your political opponent for murder and arguing policy

 

[zelas]

the DNC stream last I looked wasn't focused on the speeches at all but on some random commentators. I was using that the other night.

Really? I havent seen one commentator. Twitch feed is identical.

 

[whyamihere]

I <3 Chris Murphy

 

[Ekai]

There aren't any commentators in the DNC stream. It's just the stream of the convention, no talking heads.

I literally just tried to watch it and some random people were just chatting about random stuff. No focus on the stream a all.

 

[Kid Heart]

Damn, I can't imagine what she's been through. Glad at least she hasn't given up, and instead is trying to work on a solution so this doesn't happen to anyone else.

Oh, I was talking about Christine Leinonen, but yes. The Benghazi guy clearly thought his mom was cooky.

You must be watching the wrong stream, then.

This dude is good too. And the Republicans got someone from duck dynasty to speak. Night and day difference.

 

[Africanus]

As a lowly Ph.D student working on climate change, the consensus among most climate scientists that I've talked to (including my adviser), hold this position.

The major political talking points going forward in the 2020s would be on the economy, jobs, and probably the effects of automation. Right or wrong, people are selfish, and asking people to focus on what will happen decades from now, while they are struggling today, is a lost cause.

Well, change is relative after all. There's the change that destroys some of the coastal towns, and there's the change that destroys all of them. And so on.

Already, I know the Carteret Islands are ground zero of evacuations as a result of global warming.

I suppose the point of this would be a question. To you, what is the best case scenario?

 

[Ekai]

Also, oh geez. Twitch Chat is such a cesspool. I've always hated Twitch Chat but geez is such a cesspool.

Is this guy Seth Myers older brother?

That's what I'm watching. Speeches, nothing from anyone talking. That's the official DNC stream.

What kind of twisted people want guns in schools

What kind of twisted people want guns in schools

The GOP

 

[Bearjewpiter]

Short, sweet, rutheless

 

[User 463088]

The NRA who owns the GOP.

 

[RedAssedApe]

ugh...great speech but stop doing the text thing. just put it on the screen or something lol

 

[Vire]

I mean to be fair, the DNC had Eva Longeria come out the other day and say stupid stuff.

Duck Dynasty is definitely the worst though...

After the Sandy Hook massacre I shit you not people were advocating for elementary school children to carry handguns

 

[joe2187]

It would only make schools safer.

 

[Dan]

What kind of twisted people want guns in schools

Fools who think guns make people safer.

 

[Brinbe]

Dems are 100% on point with this convention. It's not even close. RNC was an embarrassing shitshow in comparison.

[Vire]

Ugh I can't watch anything related to sandy hook. I just can't.

 

[User1608]

That day will always hurt.

 

[jett]

Honestly, I think it's already too late to stop climate change. The point of no return was 20 or 30 years ago.

That's what most scientist say, isn't it. I guess we can make it so we can at least limp our way to surviving until we find a way to fix it.

 

[whyamihere]

Oh god, I'm just going to be a steady stream of tears, aren't I?

 

[Outdoor Miner]

These videos are crushing my soul.

 

[joe2187]

What day? according to some trump supporters, Sandy Hook was all a hoax!

 

[B-Dubs]

Oh god, I'm just going to be a steady stream of tears, aren't I?

You and me both...

In Tennessee, we're letting faculty in universities carry. As a student going back in the fall who has seen some mildly unhinged professors, I'm concerned.

 

[Ekai]

No, I'm not talking about the yt stream. I'm talking about the DNC stream from their own website. It just flat out had two random commentators instead of being focused on the event.

 

[Flakster99]

Oh god, I'm just going to be a steady stream of tears, aren't I?

You and me both. Absolutely soul crushing.

 

[User 463088]

I don't get how these people have the strength. I don't.

 

[Bearjewpiter]

That's what most scientist say, isn't it. I guess we can make it so we can at least limp our way to surviving until we find a way to fix it.

The time to stop us feeling the effects as bad as we will was many decades ago. We will repair what we have done but not with the ideas the GOP has to offer

 

[User1608]

Those people should go to the asylum.

 

[Red]

Is that exclusive to Trump supporters? Can you back that up?

 

[TreIII]

Bravo, Erica. Sending all my love your way.

 

[gutter_trash]

finally Democrats are standing up to the stupid NRA,

every four years, they always tried to not offend gun owners who cling to guns or religion

I am super happy that Hillary and the Dems are finally taking a stand today

 

[whyamihere]

Oh whoa:

@danmericaCNN
After finishing her bus tour, Hillary Clinton will campaign in Omaha on Monday. Campaign is making a play for split electoral college vote.

 

[tiredheadcrab]

Ugh this is getting sad and fast. Sandy Hook brings back a lot of pain. As does Orlando.

 

[RustyNails]

Or just some people don't find it acceptable in any circumstance.

Well, where do you stand? Do you support unequivocal ban on fracking? If you do, that will make the demand of utility and gasoline go up, because fracking is cheaper than traditional drilling. By how much, I'm not sure but I dont want to find out. This is the difference. "Ban fracking" sounds good. But not when the price of gas goes up for everyone else affecting adversely the very class of people Bernie wants to protect.

 

[Meowster]

Can't imagine my world without my mom. I know it'll happen someday but.. ugh. Giving her a quick call tonight.

 

[Tubie]

Oh god, I'm just going to be a steady stream of tears, aren't I?

Tears, also anger at the fucking NRA for how fucking evil they are and the GOP that bends over for them every time.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Man, the past hour or two has been incredibly on point.
