Experiencing the DNC

Attending the Democratic National Convention (DNC) marks a significant event for new attendees, with discussions highlighting the excitement mixed with challenges of finding humor in a predominantly positive atmosphere. The group reflects on how political events differ from traditional comedy settings, noting that laughter and humor are harder to elicit when everyone seems to be in high spirits. One participant shares insights from a Kamala Harris rally, emphasizing the use of music and memes to engage younger voters, which has transformed the political landscape. This new dynamic has created unexpected feelings for Democrats, akin to the enthusiasm typically reserved for Republican rallies in previous years.
