2024 Elections: One Last Chance for Democracy

Yeah they tried do hard...including showing pictures from a different rally where the weather didn't match.
 
That yuuuuge Dump rally in The Bronx, that supposedly drew 25,000 people?

From what I can see, probably 1,000 at most and predominately from out of state.

ANALYSIS: Biden's 'Senior Center' Campaign Shuffles Into New Hampshire - NH Journal

I’m waiting for someone to shout ‘Bingo!'”

That’s how one journalist covering President Joe Biden’s visit to the Westwood Park YMCA in Nashua described the scene as a quiet crowd awaited an appearance by the leader of the free world.

It’s not a fair comment, of course.

Bingo is actually fun.

Fun was not in evidence in the hushed, half-filled hall of the Westwood Park Y on Tuesday. The crowd was subdued, almost funereal. Elevator music seeped softly out of the sound system, and people spoke in low tones around the room.

In the back of the room, where cynical reporters, tech crew, and political hacks hang out, someone snarked, “Maybe Biden died?

How could you tell,” came the reply.

Even more odd: The venue wasn’t full. An event starring the president of the United States, and the hand-picked attendees were scattered around the room like estranged cousins at a family reunion.

Are they still practicing social distancing?” quipped state Rep. Keith Ammon (R-New Boston) on X.

When the program started and Biden shuffled toward the lectern, there was none of the excitement associated with a political candidate rousing his supporters. Biden spoke for just 12 minutes. He said nothing memorable or inspiring. The crowd clapped politely (though infrequently) and then it was over.

The point isn’t that Biden failed to meet the Trump standard for a public appearance, though he certainly did. There were more people lined up along the road outside the Y, waving Trump flags and chanting “Let’s Go, Brandon!” than listening to Biden speak.

...

After Biden’s speech, he worked the small crowd, taking photos and donning his iconic aviator sunglasses. There was none of the celebrity buzz that big-time politicians usually inspire. Democratic operatives gossiped in corners. Karine Jean-Pierre was texting distractedly on her iPhone. Asked about the new poll showing Biden in trouble in New Hampshire, she said she couldn’t address something so overtly political and suggested Rep. Annie Kuster, who was standing nearby.

Kuster was a “no comment,” then quickly fled.

Many New Hampshire political professionals find it nearly impossible to believe that a Democrat could lose New Hampshire to Donald Trump.

But after half an hour with Biden and his fans in Nashua, and a Trump victory didn’t just seem possible. It seemed all but inevitable.

My favorite was showing a crowd coming out to see him in NYC, when it's actually a crowd that came to see Biden.

My favorite was the dude in the Miami Dolphins hat standing with the fat tattooed white privileged rapper from Florida trying to pretend they were from The Bronx.
 
I've read that a ton of people just go for the spectacle or to hate watch, and then don't bother to stay too long. Probably some amazing people watching there.
 
She can go hang with Charlamagne the Fraud in the "Hey its not my fault the words I said caused harm to my people" corner of the prison they will be sent to if things go sideways.
 
In news that will shock no one, Trump will not be the Libertarian Party nominee for President in 2024, after only receiving six votes and also being disqualified for not submitting paperwork to the party requesting nomination.

Stormy Daniels received one vote.

In more surprising news, RFK Jr. also failed to get the nomination for the Libertarians, only receiving ~2% of the vote, or 19 votes.
