Summary
The Democratic National Convention is full steam ahead in Chicago as the Democrats enthusiastically rally around their new nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris. However, amidst celebrity performances and impassioned speeches by former presidents, it can be easy to forget that Harris’s approval rating trailed even Biden’s dismal record up until recently. Moreover, Harris’s sole policy speech of her candidacy baffled even those in her own party. Will Harris be forced to define her policy platform before November? Or will she continue to climb in polls by running off of “vibes and joy”?

And I'm in the belly of the beast here in Chicago, Illinois. And yeah, and we're talking about what's happening at the convention. And we figured, you know what, let's bring on a Democrat who knows what the party is thinking, because I know what I think about what the Democrats are doing here, but we'd like to hear from a Democrat who can explain it to us. And so I ask my dear friend and colleague on Fox News, Jessica Tarlov, who's one of the Democratic commentators on our network, to come on and join us and tell us how she feels the Democratic Convention is going. Right. So it's a great, |
