6. I know I will be in the minority here...

But why are we having entertainers in a political convention?

I get it, people think having Billy Eilish perform might appeal to young folks. But is feels like silly pandering to me. And it takes time away from serious matters. So Senator Warren gives a very compelling speech about income inequality and then I have to listen to a recent pop singer? We don't need to use entertainers to demonstrate the diversity of our party. We have a real politicians.

At least none of them are speaking.

The only thing that matters here are Harris’ and President Obama’s speeches.

Not saying we should not hear the others. But only 2 will be remembered.

8. Many people watch these for entertainment as well as

speeches. Especially during the pandemic when most entertainment tv is canned.

7. I'm loving the convention so far
