Josh Johnson:在民主党全国代表大会这样积极向上的氛围中,创作讽刺性段子的难度会加大,因为很难找到合适的角度来进行幽默的表达。他希望从去过类似活动的Grace和Scott那里获得一些经验和建议。 Grace Kuhlenschmidt:她认为表情包和吸引年轻选民的策略在当代政治中扮演着重要角色,并指出即使在积极的政治氛围中,也能找到幽默的元素。 Scott Sherman:他认为民主党人正在经历一种新的积极情绪,这与以往的焦虑和担忧形成对比,并建议民主党人应该探索这种新的积极情绪。 Josh Johnson:他认为民主党人的热情与2015年共和党人的热情相似,这是一种新的政治参与方式。民主党人现在也像2015年的共和党人一样,对政治集会充满热情和期待,并积极参与其中。 Grace Kuhlenschmidt:她认为虽然政治热情高涨,但投票才是真正重要的,并且需要在热情和理性之间取得平衡。 Scott Sherman:他认为Kamala Harris和Tim Walz的品牌形象塑造得很成功,吸引了更多选民。
