Trump Apparently Was in the Room During the Democrats’ Opening Statements on Wednesday Night

By PoliZette Staff | July 31, 2019

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio almost immediately went after President Donald Trump by talking about the “working people” of America and how, in de Blasio’s estimation, they’ve been forgotten by the current White House.

He also said the following about some of his fellow Democrats.

Said Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado, “We’ve been consumed by a president who frankly doesn’t give a damn about your kids or mine.”

“Mr. President,” he added, “kids belong in classrooms, not cages. And they deserve something better than a bully in the White House.”

Said entrepreneur Andrew Yang during his opening statement, “The opposite of Donald Trump is an Asian man who likes math.”

And former Vice President Joe Biden said, “I’m running for president to restore the soul of this country.”

“Mr. President, this is America,” added Biden, “and we are strong and great because of this diversity — not in spite of it.”

He also said, in what was obviously a carefully crafted and heavily scripted line, that he and others “love” this country and aren’t about to “leave it.”

And Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey said — as the Democrats began going at each other on their various health care plans — “[Trump] is working right now on taking away” Americans’ health care.

The effort clearly, within moments, was to rip apart President Trump as a way of advancing their own political futures.

Just plain sad.
