SURPRISE: People Don’t Really Like ‘Weird’ Virtual Democratic Convention

The virtual 2020 Democratic National Convention kicked off Monday night and viewers were quick to notice that it would not be the same as conventions of years past.

The online convention began with actress Eva Longoria Bastón, the convention’s host, giving an opening speech. Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida commented that the choice for Bastón to host was out of touch.

Other Twitter users noted that the convention, held virtually during the coronavirus pandemic was awkward and “weird.”
