34. Democrats Have Always Been Cooler

Democrats have always been cooler than Republicans. Republicans are usually squares. Not hip. Since the days of contrast between the cool guy Kennedy versus the detestable Richard Nixon, Democrats have always been hipper than Republicans. We also have better ties to Hollywood. We can produce more entertaining events and ads. This Convention is well produced. We have better entertainers supporting us. The Republicans just have old weirdos like Hulk Hogan and Kid Rock. I am hoping that Taylor Swift endorses Kamala soon. We have better celebrities on our side.
