<p>Western New York—The electric rollout of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz&#8217;s presidential campaign on Tuesday night left some Western New Yorkers a little confused. Despite a host of speakers that included Philadelphia mayor, Cherelle Parker, Pennsylvania governor, Josh Shapiro and the newly minted democratic presidential candidates there was a glaring lack weird and incoherent references to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMNMt5FdVwg">sharks</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0s5Zqmb09g">cancerous windmills</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUgZQRG90js">Hannibal Lecter</a>, <a href="https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/documentary/trumps-american-carnage/">American carnage</a> and other oddities that have marked this year&#8217;s election discourse from Donald Trump and republicans. In fact, the event at Vanderbilt University before a packed house seemed to evoke a sense of joy and future prosperity which totally flummoxed area viewers.</p>



<p>Here are some reactions from across Western New York:</p>



<p>Larry Latoris of Lakeview was perplexed at the lack of name calling. “I mean it was pretty funny when vice-presidential candidate Walz said, “<em>I can’t wait to debate J.D. Vance…that’s if he’s willing to get off the </em><a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/dem-vp-pick-tim-walz-sneaks-in-couch-dig-at-jd-vance-in-philly-speech"><em>couch</em></a><em>,” </em>but where was the name calling and put downs? None of these communists in the democ<em>rat </em>party called anybody stupid or a disaster and none of them came up with any good lines or names for Trump? I mean, how about a little nod to &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkoPq5AOCOA">Animal House</a>&#8220;: <em>Fat,</em> <em>dumb and orange is no way to go through life, son</em>. Maybe some: <em>Donny Bone-Spur </em>or the <em>Mar-A-Loco Meathead.</em> I feel so cheated.”</p>



<p>Cherry Chuggler of Cheektowaga was taken aback by the bright, joyful faces of both Harris and Walz which she found uncharastically uplifting and made her want to be a better person. “All of the sudden I have these feelings of generosity and goodwill. So much so, I got in my car today and when some fuckhead in a Prius changed lanes without signaling I just let it go. And my neighbor Gayle, from down the street— the one with the solar panels and the vegetable garden—she waved and I waved back and smiled. What&#8217;s happening to me? This sucks.”</p>



<p>Lonnie Logger of Lancaster was confused at the lack of darkness and hatred. “I was expecting to hear the plans for how these democ<em>rats </em>were going to end Christianity and about their undying love for Hamas. But instead of a:<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_the_river_to_the_sea#:~:text=%22From%20the%20river%20to%20the%20sea%2C%20Palestine%20will%20be%20free,since%20at%20least%20the%201990s."><em> From the river to the sea</em></a><em> </em>recitation, these left wing lunatics led by Harris and Walz chanted <em>USA, USA, USA</em> and <em>We’re not going back, We’re not going back. </em>And rather than that Walz guy telling you to get off his lawn he told people to: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQD-H08CwTQ"><em>Mind your own damn business.</em></a> Didn’t it used to be the republicans who advocated for freedom from the government? But now, they don&#8217;t want you to have freedom over your body, who you love or even what you read. They&#8217;re up in your grill about everything. I’m so damn confused.”</p>



<p>Sylvia Slossen of Sloan was surprised she didn’t hear more about plans for installing <a href="https://www.edweek.org/leadership/what-is-critical-race-theory-and-why-is-it-under-attack/2021/05">critical race theory</a> or how they’re going to further <a href="https://apnews.com/article/congress-border-security-democrats-ca10e37c4f961700cdd1645e09422ac0">open the border to illegals</a>. “Instead, all I saw was love and excitement. And I heard pledges to help the middle class, to increase healthcare, to invest in schools. What I didn’t hear was anything about miserable cat ladies, sharks, Hannibal Lecter or coconuts. I was told I was going to hear about <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/conormurray/2024/07/21/kamala-harris-coconut-tree-quote-explained-what-she-meant-and-why-its-going-viral-as-biden-drops-out/">coconuts</a>. There was nothing in these speeches that was weird or made me feel afraid. What the hell is wrong with these democ<em>rats</em>?</p>



<p>There are eighty-seven days left until November 5th, when the United States will elect its forty-seventh president.</p>
