When asked about his experience at the DNC, Donalds acknowledged that people have been cordial towards him. He noted the mention of $35 insulin during the convention, a policy previously implemented by Donald Trump. Despite this policy mention, Donalds criticized the overall focus of the convention, stating that it lacked substantial policy discussions.
Donalds pointed out that the DNC seemed more focused on creating an atmosphere of excitement through visual elements like glowing wristbands and elaborate backgrounds. He emphasized the importance of understanding the candidate's policies and how they would impact the American people's lives.
Expressing disappointment in the lack of policy-centric discussions, Donalds questioned the effectiveness of the convention in translating excitement into voter support. He suggested that with all the orchestrated excitement, the candidate should have seen a higher increase in polling numbers.
Donalds' remarks shed light on his perspective regarding the DNC's emphasis on spectacle over policy substance. As the convention progresses, it remains to be seen how the Democratic candidate's policies will be communicated to the electorate and resonate with voters.
