The Democratic National Convention was suppose to be a stark contrast to the Republican’s convention last week in Cleveland. They were suppose to portray unity, peace and an inspirational message to America. The Republican’s convention, on the other hand, was suppose to be plagued by violent protests, disunity from the NeverTrump delegates and a candidate who failed to unite the party. Although these were the expectations given to us by the media, the situations were completely reversed and Donald Trump became the Republican nominee without a hitch once the NeverTrumpers were voted down on the first day.
Hillary Clinton’s so called historic moment, however, was mired in rebellion, protests and disruptions throughout all 4 days of her convention. Let’s take a look at all the embarrassing events that the DNC has had to endure during their convention of “unity.”
You had protesters dominating some coverage outside, knocking things down. The chairman of the party resigned in scandal. You had the nominees themselves, their speeches, both Tim Kaine and Hillary Clinton, fell completely flat. … For a week leading up to the RNC, we were talking about just how big of a disaster the RNC was going to be, and what happened? You’ve actually seen it materialize now with the DNC. I’m sure we’re not going to see the media bring back the narrative of how the DNC failed. – Joe Borelli, New York City Councilman
Embarrassing WikiLeaks E-mails Forcing DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz to Resign
The DNC ran into an embarrassing situation before they even started their convention, as WikiLeaks made public thousands of private internal emails proving that the DNC conspired to prevent Bernie Sanders from becoming the nominee. This only proved to the many Bernie supporters what they had already knew anyways, that the system is rigged and no matter how hard they tried, Bernie would never be the nominee.
The timing was perfect on the part of WikiLeaks, as it gave the Bernie delegates an opportunity to make signs in protest of the DNC and forced Debbie Wasserman Schultz to resign before her big moment. The very first day of the DNC, Monday morning, Debbie took the stage to open up the convention and was met by overwhelming boos and chants from the crowd. So much so, that she was forced to step down from even opening and closing the convention each day, as the DNC didn’t want the bad optics of delegates protesting.
Don’t worry about Debbie’s political future though, Hillary Clinton has promptly announced that she will be hiring Debbie as an “honorary chair” of her campaign. It’s nice to have friends in high places to compensate you for your corruption, isn’t it Debbie?
DNC Shamed into Putting American Flags on Stage
After the opening day of the DNC, viewers pointing out that there was not a single American flag to be found anywhere on the stage. It’s no surprise considering just outside the convention hall, protesters were waving around communist flags and burning American flags. After reports spread about their apparent lack of patriotism, they “borrowed” flags from the Philadelphia City Hall to put up on their stage.
No matter how many flags are put up, they will always fall to the corruption of Hillary Clinton:

Bernie Supporters Boo his Speech About Rallying Behind Hillary Clinton
Bernie Sanders, who supporters believe were forced to give his endorsement to Hillary Clinton, implored his delegates to put their feelings behind them and rally behind Hillary Clinton.
After his usual remarks, Bernie was booed at the mention of supporting Hillary Clinton:
Bernie Delegates Walk Out in Protest
A few days into the convention, and the Bernie supporters had enough of the DNC suppressing their voices, and staged a massive walk out in protest.
Breitbart reported:
The walk-out by Bernie Sanders delegates immediately after the roll call vote was arguably the most significant act of defiance on the floor in recent convention history.
This reporter observed the carefully planned walkout from the grandstands a couple sections over from Bernie’s balcony, where he was busy getting feted for his silver medal. The commotion on the floor got started around the time Bernie’s brother Larry was toasting their late parents. My Breitbart News colleague Joel Pollak was on the packed convention floor texting me the protesters’ next location: the media center.
The protest at the media center was intense. Pro-Bernie agitators stormed through the glass doors while at least a hundred more crowded around inside. These were some of the top protest organizers on the Left at the top of their game (and negotiating with the police to avoid arrests).
It was even being reported that the Democrats were posting Craigslist ads looking to replace the vacant seats left by delegates, and offered to pay them $50 a day to be present and clap.
Delegates Credentials Revoked for Holding Anti-TPP Signs
Wait, I thought Hillary had flip-flopped and decided she’s against the TPP in its “current form.” Meaning she’s totally on board with the TPP bill, as she had stated before calling it the “Gold Standard” of trade agreements, but polls show most people are against it so she has to fake like she is too.
One Bernie delegate stated that he drove 22 hours to be present at the convention, only to have his credentials revoked because he held up an anti-TPP sign.

Clinton donors weren’t happy about these disruptions apparently, as one major donor stated, according to Politico,
“They carried it too far,” said Michael Clark, a Washington lobbyist and donor, after a reception at the Academy of Music for the pro-Clinton big-money groups Media Matters, Correct the Record and American Bridge 21st Century. “They embarrassed Bernie at one point. They certainly embarrassed Hillary.”
“I never want them to give up their dreams, but they’re young and there’s a lot to learn,” said Feldman. “And they will learn how to compromise and get things done.”
What this donor is really saying by telling Bernie supporters that they’re “young and have a lot to learn” is that eventually they will realize that no matter how much they support a cause, if the big money donors behind the Democratic party don’t support it was well, the cause will never be allowed to succeed.
A lesson well learned by millions of Bernie supporters this year.
Bill Clinton Falls Asleep During Hillary Speech
It seems not everyone was feeling the excitement behind Hillary’s historic moment, as her own husband appeared to be dosing off while she spoke. Maybe the idea of him being the First Lady just wasn’t exciting enough for him.
You can see a video of Bill Clinton’s little nap here.
Besides taking a bit of sleepy time, Bill Clinton just generally did not look very “alert” during his entire time at the DNC.
DNC Turns off Lights on Delegates Shouting, “No More War”
When the DNC had former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta speaking on stage, delegates in the California and Oregon areas of the audience started chanting “No more war!” Apparently it was so loud, the DNC officials turned off the lights in their sections.

In response, the delegates turned on their iPhone lights and even had glow in the dark t-shirts that said, “enough is enough,” which proudly stood out.
Despite all of these embarrassments and symbols of disunity, the media will simply report the Convention was great, Hillary is great, liberals are great, and everyone who supports Donald Trump are racist bigot woman haters and who are led by the GOP and thus war must be waged on the GOP.
The usual cabal of establishment supporters will believe it, but with Donald Trump’s message is reaching and appealing to more and more voters across America and there is a chance that he can overcome the odds against him.
Donald Trump will have to fight against the liberal media, Hillary Clinton’s massive campaign money machine and violent protesters who seek to prevent anyone from hearing his message. Trump has proven himself a fighter and can win these battles against insurmountable odds…but can he win the war for traditional American values? Or will the wave of “progressivism” finally wash over the last remnants of resistance and nationalism?
Trump had some choice words for Hillary Clinton today:
Crooked Hillary said that I “couldn’t handle the rough and tumble of a political campaign.” Really,I just beat 16 people and am beating her!
