Tim Walz promised a “joyous” Democratic National Convention in a lightning round of brief speeches Monday morning—pointedly not mentioning Donald Trump or JD Vance.

“What we’re going to show America over the next three days is what democracy looks like,” he said in his very first appearance at the event, a breakfast for delegates from Wisconsin. “It’s joyous, it’s inclusive."

“We understand what the alternative is. That doesn’t motivate people. It’s not just beating those guys. It’s about setting a course for our future that’s brighter for everyone.”

    GASH: Great Article, Shit Headline…

    heated ranting list of clickbait titles

    BREAKING NEWS:

    • Trump did not publicly insult a woman or person of colour for at least a few hours today, we’ll update the story as this progresses!
    • Trump did not wake up today and immediately utter a lie!
    • Trump was not in the room when Tim Walz delivered a speech!
    • Trump was not part of the speech except in vague references to Republicans!
    • Trump’s name wasn’t written on any of the decorations!
    • Trump does not have a reservation at the hotel Walz spoke at!
    • Trump Trump Trump!

    I’m so sick of this shit. Watching Trump struggle brings long-awaited joy, but the absence of his involvement being the title of a story is just absolutely vexing. Please tell me more about the Harris campaign and put the spotlight there.
