The 2024 Democratic Party platform has been released, and it’s basically what you’d expect. Marked by a laundry list of far-left priorities, it mentions Donald Trump over one hundred times.
As RedState reported, it’s also full of misleading nonsense, such as claiming that Democrats are “rebuilding” America’s broadband network despite their $42 billion allocation not producing anything thus far. Naturally, the “very fine people” hoax got a mention too.

In their haste to proclaim how bad the orange man is, though, the writers of the document missed something. Guess who is mentioned as the nominee multiple times?
Wait so is Joe Biden back in the race?

That wasn’t the only screw-up. There are several more mentions within the platform of Biden’s “second term.”
The official DNC platform has been released and it makes at least five mentions of “Biden’s second term.”

That’s certainly embarrassing for Kamala Harris, who has been doing her best to present herself as the unquestioned leader of the party, even taking steps to distance herself from Joe Biden. I suppose that’s the risk one takes, though, when they participated in an organized coup that used threats and backroom dealings to throw out every primary vote and force out the elected nominee.

This is just one example of the facade the Democratic Party has put up over the last month since Biden was forced out of the race. Beneath all the proclamations of “joy” and the veneer of professionalism is a rushed, chaotic operation that is surviving on the back of an unprecedented propaganda push from the press.
Is that enough to deliver victory in November? It’s possible. It’s also possible that the cracks in the armor keep showing themselves, and more and more mistakes are made down the stretch. That’s the hope for Republicans anyway. The press isn’t going to stop propping up Harris in incredibly shameless ways, but she still has to campaign for the next two-and-a-half months.
On Sunday, we saw signs that Harris simply doesn’t have the mental stamina to keep up the act until election day. The word salads and faux intellectualism that took down her 2020 campaign were on full display, and as she and Tim Walz barnstorm the country, there are going to be many more opportunities for the real Kamala Harris to appear.
In the meantime, though, you’d think someone could have read over the Democratic Party’s own platform before pushing it out with Biden still in the lead position. Well, you’d think that until you remember these are the same people who have run the federal government into the ground. Competency isn’t exactly their strong suit.
