These conventions are all political theatre, nothing more. Why would the Democrats let Bill Clinton speak at the convention? Because he's a former POTUS and that means something. How many former presidents rallied to support the Democratic candidate? Two. It probably would have been three if Carter were ambulatory. How many former presidents spoke in support of the Republican candidate? ZERO. This stuff matters in political theatre. No one cares about appealing to the woke agenda at these conventions. They only care about showing unity in a traditional sense and fortifying the party supports the candidate.
