Over 75,000 people have gathered in Washington, D.C., to hear Vice President Kamala Harris' closing argument speech at the same site of former President Donald Trump's rally on January 6, 2021.
Harris' event at the Ellipse comes one week before Election Day, and follows Trump's closing arguments at Madison Square Garden on Sunday that received backlash for its inflammatory and racist rhetoric.

LOL! There was no way that there was 75,000 people in the crowd and this is the liberal bastion of the DC beltway.
Watched the first 20 minutes of the speech and she seemed very nervous and despondent.

They are going to lie and insult their way to the first woman POTUS. America deserves to be punished if they let this happen.

I thought it was a good performance by her. Of course, devoid of substance. I doubt it changed many minds.

I just saw a video of a guy filming the 70 buses they drove up to the rally. This is all manufactured and you know it. Oh by the way did you know she comes from a middle class family 😂 she’s still repeating that damn stupid line today !

Who would watch that?
It’d be like pooping, and being excited to check the bowl for what you dropped.
Not good.

“she seemed very nervous and despondent.”
Apparently no one gave her cocktails before the speech, perhaps she was still hungover from the day before.

Yup, a lot of federal people fearful of their job. That’s why they chose this venue. Everyone at the federal trough shows up.

There are 689,545 people in the District of Columbia... 689,544 of them are Democrats... I’m just assuming that at least one of them is a Republican or Independent. Rounding up 75 thousand wouldn’t, or shouldn’t have been a problem.

Just like the Communists who forced people to march in the May Day parades.
