Michigan’s Governor Gretchen Esther Whitmer Addressed the Supporters
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer addressed the DNC and said, ‘We get stuff done!” She explained the comparison between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris knows how to take items out of a cart while shopping. Donald Trump doesn’t know about not getting to work when the car stops or breaks down. He calls his chauffeur. “In a crisis, we need someone before the crisis. Why wouldn’t we choose a leader who is trusted? I know who I want. America, let’s choose Kamala Harris.”
Men and women wore white apparel to honor the Voting Rights for Women, the 19th Amendment in Congress in 1978 and later ratified by Congress. Several delegates also wore cheese heads.
Per the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Vice President Kamala Harris was already officially nominated virtually. However, the ceremonial roll call will still give each state and territory a few seconds in the spotlight.
Wisconsin isn’t the only delegation standing out for its hats. Delegates from Kentucky are wearing light-up cowboy hats, and some members of the Colorado delegation have similar but less flashy headwear.
Tyra Banks does not wear a decorative hat, but Vice President Kamala Harris shows her support for small businesses. The well-known America’s Top Model and affluent actress founded and owns Smize and Dream, an ice cream parlor in Washington, D.C.
The Location “So why D.C.? For one, it’s the home of Banks’s brother Devin, a 28-year Air Force veteran who works on Capitol Hill. “We’ve been in different parts of the world for decades,” Tyra Banks said in an interview Thursday at a news conference hosted at the pop-up. “So it’s nice to be here with him.”
The Love “The company, she says, is in many ways dedicated to her mother, Carolyn, with whom she recalls grabbing scoops of coffee-flavored Häagen-Dazs every week as a child. Her mom, Banks says, was working two jobs to afford a move from a one-bedroom Los Angeles apartment.”
Former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger Addresses DNC “I learned something about the Democratic Party.” “They love this Country just as much as we do. They are as eager to defend American values home and abroad.”
“Donald Trump is a weak man pretending to be strong.” “He’s a perpetrator who can’t stop playing the victim.”
True strength is standing up for the Constitution and Democracy. “Ladies and Gentleman, we must put Country First because I do belong here. She is dedicated to upholding all three.” To my Fellow Republicans, Democracy knows no party. It’s the bedrock that separates us from tyranny. When that is fractured, we must stand together and unite.
Vote for our bedrock values; vote for Kamala Harris.
Maya Harris, the younger sister of Kamala Harris, spoke at the Democratic Convention.
Attorney, Public Policy Advocate, and writer Maya Harris spoke about her Mother’s strength, significantly influencing her and her sister. Her Mother’s strength, determination, and wisdom encouraged the family to achieve any goals they had in mind.
“As a civil rights activist and scientist, she had great expectations for us. She knew we could be the authors of our own stories.
We have different struggles. Kamala knows what it’s like to be the underdog and beat the odds. She has created so much optimism and joy. We live in a time when some try to separate us.”
“Kamala focuses on Connection. Others want to drag us back to the past. Kamala says, “Hold up now; we are not going back.”
We have so much in common than what separates us.
I wish “Mommy” could be here tonight to elect a leader who sees the potential in each of us.”
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper is “the last guy standing between you and what we’ve been waiting for.”
“I want the American people to know that Kamala Harris will fight for you tonight.” For parents, children, workers, or any of our allies wondering if America still has your back, Kamala will fight for you.
Kamala is ready. Are we going to fight for Kamala? Roll call taken; stand up! Are we going to fight, stand up, vote, and win?” “You bet we are. Let’s get them.”
“We trust women. When Congress passes that Bill, I will proudly turn it into law.”
As Commander in Chief, I will ensure lethal fight in the world. I will always honor their sacrifice I will make sure we leave the world (better.)
America, not China, wins the competition. Trump threatened to invade Pluto.
Five Days Russia Attack Fifty countries to defend.
I will stay strong Biden and I are working around the clock. Ceasefire
Israel is secure. Suffer in Gaza ends. Palestine people will realize their right to freedom and self-determination.
I know where I stand and where the United States Belongs.
None of us have to fail for our opponents to denigrate America. “Never let anyone tell you who you are; you show them who you are.” Freedom, Opportunity, Endless Responsibilities.
