The closing night of the Democratic National Convention on Thursday drew about 26.2 million TV viewers, narrowly outpacing the Republican National Convention’s final night, according to data from the media measurement company Nielsen.

The convention’s final night aired across 15 television networks and drew about 820,000 more viewers than the estimated 25.4 million people who watched the final night of the Republican event, Nielsen reported.

      why did you inflict that on me. no, i appreciate that, because I want to be fully aware of what carnage and horror i’m voting for. but if you go vote for Jill Stein or whomever, you’re voting for Trump. you are wasting your vote.

        But how can Americans pressure their candidate into not committing literal war crimes? It seems almost impossible to do that a year before the election (when things matter the most and candidates can make promises).

          i do not know. I know that supporting Stein will not change anything. if you have an obscene amount of money, you might get an audience with the right person to say, “Hey! stop the genocide!”. and they will ask, “how much?”

      Did she say it would make the “desert” bloom by donating money to plant trees in Israel? Wow what an uninformed prick who was bought into Zionist propaganda :/

      At the end of the day, what really happens is that Israel burns orchards and trees of Palestinians so some politician like her (whose two main strenthas now are ‘knowing how to meme’ and the mandatory ‘not being trump’) can come and say crap like that.

      I feel sorry for Americans who are forced to vote for this genocide-driving politician with fake compassion because the alternative is more horrendous. I feel sorry for them because even though they may oppose the genocide, they have absolutely no way to pressure their candidate of choice to stop funding it with weapons.

      Kamala, take those fucking trees and put them up your ass.
