    Brit born with dual citizenship I've now lived 1⁄3 of my life in the US. I had not planned to watch the entire DNC telecast tonight but I did and found my stuff cheering and clapping and almost shedding a happy tear.
    President and Michelle Obama were brilliant in their roles as president and 1st lady. President Biden and Dr Jill Biden were also fantastic president and 1st lady.
    And I am absolutely looking forward to Kamala Harris And Tim walls as PRESIDENT Harris and VP Walz!
    I am sick and tired of feeling ashamed of this country. I will never understand why the mouth breathers in the middle follow that sad narcissist psychopath but it but it is time to go FORWARD! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

      Yes Obama and Biden were really good Presidents. Pres. Obama given respect, welcomed Trump as the New President after him, but did Trump whie getting out welcome incoming Pres Biden after his term, he did not. His Vice President Mike Pence and First Lady Pence were the one who attended and given respect to Pres Biden Presidential Inaugural. Were most of Trump Cabinet Members been charged, and Vice Pres Mike Pence name almost been destroyed was it because of Trump?

      Because it's American media, all owned by Trump donors. And the BBC is lazy and follow them like sheep.
      The BBC does not follow independent broadcasters like Meidas Touch or Brian Taylor Cohen.

      By the way, Brian Tyler Cohen and Meidas Touch Network did a fantastic job ! And still do.

      That's a difficult issue to resolve and can't be done overnight. We have to focus on our own country and it's healing too. We dealt with domestic terrorism and still do. If you think domestic terrorism is minut and menial then clearly you are not mature. Don't shame this country or any other for getting it's own business done.

    • @yourlucidnightmare7213

      If you fear for Palestinians then understand that the U.S. is trying to protect itself because we don't want a dictatorship that could repeat the horrible parts of history like WW2 and Germany. The outcome with millions of deaths, enslavement, starvation, r*pe, and murder. If you don't like what you see going on with Palestinians then you should understand the United States and it's priority of action right now.
