Democratic Convention Day 3: CNN's Bash says party will appeal to soy boys, comedians troll BBC

Day 3 of the Democratic National Convention wasn't as bad as days 1 and 2.

Still, there were plenty of highlights: TV star Oprah Winfrey tweeted something about “childless, cat-loving women,” Bill Clinton bizarrely bragged about being younger than Donald Trump, and CNN's Dana Bash acknowledged that vice presidential candidate Tim Waltz and presidential candidate Kamala Harris' de-masculine husband, Douglas Emhoff, would appeal to low-testosterone men.

And in a stunning performance lasting less than three minutes, conservatives played the role of stupid white radicals for Harris, fooling the BBC.

“Leaders do the work”

As with the first two days, the Vigilant Fox X feed compiled 10 short videos for its 1.1 million followers.

The thread began with Winfrey's bizarre and incomprehensible comments about “childless, cat-loving women,” which prompted CNN to turn its camera on an obese woman who may have been a childless, cat-loving woman.

But the key takeaway from this is that the Democratic Party has clearly embraced a demographic that is angry and lonely.

But Walz, like most Democrats who seem to forget about their catty voters and have a total lack of self-awareness, said, “Leaders don't spend all day insulting people and blaming others. Leaders do their jobs.”

“So, I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to turn a new page for these guys,” Waltz continued.

So say it with me: we're not turning back!

Then the crowd held up signs depicting Waltz's fleshy face and broke out into a rapturous sing-along.

According to a New American report on the second day of the rally, by the end of the night, Democrats had mentioned Trump 147 times but only 49 times combined on issues that matter to Americans: the economy, crime, prices, inflation and the Southwest border.

But, “leaders don't belittle and criticize people all day. They do their job.”

Bill Clinton's Proud

The Vigilant Fox thread also included Bill Clinton bragging about his 78th birthday, which falls on Aug. 19. “The only personal vanity I'd like to claim is that I'm still younger than Donald Trump,” Clinton told the cheering crowd.

Trump was born on June 14, 1946, two months before Clinton.

Clinton was right, but the meaning of that data is a mystery. And if Clinton is “younger” than Trump, she is the only president to have sex with a 22-year-old intern in the Oval Office, lie to the public about it, and be impeached for that lie. Clinton was 49, by the way.

Regarding Ms Clinton's emergence, Republican strategist Scott Jennings told a CNN panel supporting Ms Harris that his father and his friends from working-class western Kentucky “loved Bill Clinton” and that they were “all Clintonites”.

No more.

“And now my dad, and everyone I know, are all Donald Trump supporters,” he said.

And watching him come out here tonight, and thinking about this convention audience, I think there were a lot of people in the Democratic Party that Bill Clinton could appeal to, and they're gone. I think the working-class, blue-collar Democratic Party that pushed Bill Clinton in the '90s has completely gone over to Donald Trump.

I wonder how younger audiences view someone like Bill Clinton today, because to them he's not a blue-collar hero, and they know so much more about him that I honestly wonder why he's still on stages like this.

Chris Cuomo, a far-left journalist formerly of CNN and now at NewsNation, criticized pro-Harris media for occupying $500,000 suites “filled with the same people they say they are going to regulate.”

Soy Boys and Polyamory

But the night's most entertaining moments were Bash's admission that Waltz and Emhoff appeal to weaker men, and conservative comedian Alex Stranger's taunting of the BBC.

Jake Tapper gave Bash the opportunity to say that the Democratic Party is not a bunch of “testosterone-fueled” guys.

“The gender gap in American politics has been pretty pronounced for the last few years,” Tapper said, “but this year, at least according to the polls, it's more pronounced. Women are overwhelmingly voting for Harris. Men are overwhelmingly voting for Trump, but not by much.”

Bash responded:

Yes, there is a gender gap. And then, in the last month, the Democrats have rallied around a woman as a top candidate. This is the first time since 2016 that the Democrats have rallied around a woman as a top candidate. It's been interesting to see how the Democrats are learning how to run against Donald Trump and how to handle him as a female opponent. The campaigns and the female candidates are very different now than they were in 2016.

But they're trying to put masculinity forward, like Tim Waltz did, and like Doug Emhoff did last night, and they're able to speak to a public that may not be the testosterone-laden, gun-toting guys that want to listen to or want to hear Hulk Hogan or the guys that came out at the Republican National Convention.

But on top of that, understand that in 2024, it's okay to be a man who is comfortable with himself and supports women. This is something they're trying to do beyond their base to reach out to male voters.

Tapper said something about a “different definition of manhood in 2024.”

“Noah Schwartz”

Stranger was wearing a Rasta cap and kindly lent it to the BBC reporter.

“What brings you here today?” asked the hairy, unkempt reporter.

The Stranger responded:

My name is Noah Schwartz. My pronouns are he and they. I'm really excited to have the first black woman to become president of the United States. My wife and I are in a polyamorous relationship. Her boyfriend is African-American, and I've learned a lot about the struggles people of color go through because of him. So I'm excited to do my part and show solidarity with marginalized communities, and the best way to do that is to have the first woman of color as commander in chief. I'm really excited. I'm so excited.

When asked if he was excited to vote for Biden, Stranger amusingly responded that he would rather vote for a corpse than for Donald Trump, a “nasty, fascist, white supremacist pig.”

Stranger said the country can make history by selecting Harris, who embodies the country's founding values ​​of diversity, equity and inclusion.

“I'm a proud white man who supports Kamala Harris, baby, let's go!”
