- United States Supreme Court you can pry
- this wedding band from my cold dead gay
- hand Donald
- Trump is like an old boyfriend
- who you broke up with but he just won't
- go
- away he has spent the last four years
- spinning the block trying to get back
- into a relationship with the American
- people bro we broke up with you for a
- reason you're going to have a hard time
- believing this but so help me I triple
- checked
- it since the end of the Cold War in
- 5:03
- 1989 America has created about 51
- million new
- jobs I swear I checked this three times
- even I couldn't believe it what's the
- score Democrats 50 Republicans
- one I'm
- glad that we've got
- a championship winning coach on our
- team now I I joined the army when I was
- 17 in fact I was too young to sign the
- paperwork I had to ask my mom to sign
- the paperwork for me because I don't
- have bone spurs
- 6:04
- here is a sentence I never thought I'd
- hear myself
- saying I'm Pete Budaj and you might
- recognize me from Fox
- News I believe in going anywhere
- anywhere in service of a good cause and
- Friends We Gather in a very good cause
- electing kamla Harris and Tim Walls the
- next president and vice president of the
- United
- States and don't even get me started on
- his new running
- mate at least Mike Pence was
- polite JD Vance is one of those guys who
- thinks if you don't live the life that
- 7:00
- he has in mind for you then you don't
- count someone who said that if you don't
- have kids you have quote no physical
- commitment to the future of this
- [Applause]
- country you know Senator when I deployed
- to Afghanistan I didn't have kids then
- many of the men and women who went
- outside the wire with me didn't have
- kids either but let me tell you our
- commitment to the Future through this
- country was pretty damn
- physical I mean guys Oprah showed up
- there are people who want you to see our
- country as a nation of us against them
- people who want to scare you who want to
- rule you people who' have you believe
- that books are
- dangerous and assault rifles are
- 8:00
- safe that there's a right way to worship
- and a wrong way to
- love people who seek first to divide and
- then to conquer but here's the thing
- when we stand together it is impossible
- to conquer
- us they are the best of America and
- despite what some would have you think
- [Applause]
- we are not so different from our
- neighbors when a house is on fire we
- don't ask about the homeowner's race or
- religion we don't wonder who their
- partner is or how they voted no we just
- try to do the best we can to save them
- and if the place place happens to belong
- to a childless cat lady
- 9:05
- well we try to get that cat out
- too we won't go
- back we won't be set back pushed back
- bullied back kicked back we're not going
- back

- choose let us choose truth let us choose
- honor and let us choose
- Joy because that's the best of America
- we're all Americans and together let's
- all choose Kamala
- 10:04
- Harris and look I want to be measured
- and not make Grand proclamations because
- I'm swept up in the emotions of being
- here at the DNC in Chicago but I feel
- pretty confident in saying
- this Democrats have won the culture
- Democrats have won the future Democrats
- have won the hearts and minds of the
- vast majority of Americans but our last
- job is to win this election and let's be
- clear nothing is a given Donald Trump
- has won what had felt like a Surefire
- victory for Democrats before and he can
- do it again the difference is that this
- time we're paying attention and we know
- that every single vote counts and that
- it's not just up to Kamala Harris or Tim
- Walz to win over voters it is up to
- all of us it is about our future our
- health care our Reproductive Rights our
- abortion rights our climate our jobs our
- wages our salaries our national security
- our democracy we've got 76 days left
- let's get to work
