Democrat policies are so unpopular they’ve built a WALL around the DNC convention to block their own voters

After giving former president Donald Trump endless flak about the border wall, security officials have erected a 15-foot “buffer” to protect the site of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, with the area surrounding the United Center getting additional fortification from eight-foot-tall fences and concrete barriers.

Around 100,000 protestors are expected at the convention. Apparently, Democrats’ policies are so unpopular that they feel like they need to protect themselves, perhaps even from their own voters. Many observers note the irony of the move and the implicit acknowledgement that walls are, in fact, effective.

According to reports from ABC 7 Chicago, “The security footprint area encompasses a 15-foot buffer around the perimeter of McCormick Place and the United Center, and includes Union Park and Park 578, where large-scale protests are planned.”

The station reports that there are a slew of rules in effect for the areas within its boundaries, including a ban on throwing items or pushing vehicles, carts and floats. A lengthy list of items that are deemed a “potential safety hazard” extends beyond the usual dangerous items such as knives and firearms to encompass laptops, drones, sealed packages, large bags, scooters, balloons, metal containers, tobacco products and bicycles. Violators are being warned that they could face jail time. This is a sharp contrast to the poor security provided to Donald Trump for his speeches.

They are also establishing vehicle screening checkpoints around the area, and they are planning to start checking cars well ahead of the convention, which is expected to make life rather inconvenient for those who work in the area.

100,000 Anti-Israel protestors expected

One Democrat policy that seems to be particularly unpopular with their own voters is their support for Israel and its genocidal acts in Gaza. Reports from Axios ahead of the convention indicate that at least 100,000 anti-Israel protestors are expected to turn up at the event.

They report that House Democrats were warned by congressional security officials to avoid booking hotel rooms in their own names; hotels have reportedly already been getting random phone calls asking for specific individuals. They were also told not to engage with any protestors if they are confronted.

The Bidens, Obamas and Clintons, along with Vice President Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz, will be staying in hotels in downtown Chicago during the convention.

One senior House Democrat told Axios that they were informed to avoid certain areas due to expected violence, noting: “The protesters aren’t staying in a designated protest site … and there are people who are going to go and really try to cause trouble.”

125 anti-Israel groups are organizing “March on the DNC 2024” rallies, and the chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network, Hatem Abudayyeh, told the Washington Post they don’t plan to go easy on Democrats even though “Genocide Joe” won’t be on the ticket anymore.

“Our target is the Democratic Party, and the leadership of the party and ‘Killer Kamala’ is one of them,” he stated.

Some business owners have been boarding up their shops in preparation for the crowds, as they fear potential looting.

The wall isn’t the only issue where they seem to have a double standard; the DNC will also be requiring photo ID from everyone who is attending the convention, with credentialed individuals such as attendees and volunteers required to pass through dedicated checkpoints – a hypocritical move considering how much energy liberals have spent claiming voter ID laws are discriminatory. Suddenly, walls and photo IDs are perfectly okay when it’s their lives on the line.
