An observation about the protests at last night's Biden-Obama-Clinton event...

When the protesting started, Steven Colbert brought up a question about Israel-Gaza to President Biden. Rather than listen to what the President had to say, the protestors started screaming again. This is a behavior I've seen at other public events with other elected officials. As President Obama said, "you have to be prepared to listen, not just talk".

the Democratic Convention who heckled John Lewis in 2016.

Those protesters are sadly mistaken if they believe this helps their cause, when the majority of people at the event were there to witness a historic event of three presidents on the same stage, along with some extraordinary entertainment

Trump and the republicans are going to try a fund raising event in the next two weeks, and will these protesters be at that event?

I saw interviews of some the protesters outside yesterday who proclaimed they would not be voting for President Biden this time.

This is the same mentality of the Jill Stein hacks in 2016 against Hillary.

It is the same mentality of the Ralph Nader hacks in 2000.

If they cannot see the difference between Democrats and republicans, especially in this critical election, they lack basic critical thinking skills, and there is no point wasting time and money trying to convince them why this election is so important. They are a lost cause.

There are plenty of sane undecided voters out there who will make the difference. Not these trump enabler protest losers, who are trying to help the most anti-Islamic former president regain the WH by their actions.
