Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, a one-time potential running mate for Harris, largely focused on reproductive rights during his remarks.
He called on voters to elect Harris and Walz to “protect reproductive freedom” and said that “Trump and Vance simply don’t believe in your freedom.”
“Trump says people are absolutely thrilled that women had their basic rights eliminated. JD Vance says women should stay in violent marriages, and that pregnancies resulting from rape are simply inconvenient,” Beshear said. “Their policies give rapists more rights than their victims. That’s not inconvenient. It’s just plain wrong.”
He called on Americans to move beyond divisive politics “by remembering we are all Americans.”
“That’s how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris lead,” he said.
‘Law & Order’ spoof video on Trump draws laughs
Attendees burst into laughter as the DNC started playing a video spooking the hit show “Law & Order,” starting with the familiar narration, “in the criminal justice system,” before delving into details of Trump’s 34 felony convictions.
The video was largely comedic — but also signaled an eagerness by Democrats to go on offense.
“I’m just glad we’re fighting back. I’m so tired of taking the high road,” one attendee said as the video played.
