How Kamala Harris’ DNC speech nailed her attacks on Donald Trump.

Slate  

It’s hard to describe the mood of Chicago’s United Center in the buildup to Vice President Kamala Harris’ speech. The video’s closing moments played over “Freedom.” Then … the lectern came back up and the arena announcer, without any additional fanfare, announced the next speaker, Vice President of the United States Kamala Harris. Then Lee Greenwood live-performed Trump’s longtime walk-on music “God Bless the U.S.A.,” while a scrim slowly rose to reveal a shadowed Trump on the stage, with his name written behind him. Related From Slate The Obamas Are the Only Ones Who Can Tell Democrats What They Don’t Want to Hear The most important section involved something that you’ve heard less about since Harris took over the campaign during this convention, as the Democrats’ messaging took on more of a tone about fighting for the middle class, a kitchen-table-issues approach. By not going full laser show in her speech, and in preparation for the convention’s final night, Democrats presented a levelheaded contrast to Trump and began the process of leveling themselves out too.
