DNC Start and Biden's Farewell Speech

The Democratic National Convention opened with a unique air of farewell for President Biden, who effectively delivered a concession speech despite being the nominee. His appearance was delayed until late into the night, eliciting a supportive, yet ironically tinged chant of 'thank you, Joe' from the audience, signaling a bittersweet goodbye. In his speech, Biden focused more on attacking Donald Trump and his perceived threat to democracy than on promoting his ticket's achievements or future plans. This shift in emphasis drew attention to Biden's frustration with Trump, whom he labeled aggressively, contrasting sharply with the expected celebratory tone of a convention honoring a sitting president.
