Democrats showed they see their voters as suckers.
Reports from TMZ and The Hill on Thursday led Americans to believe a “special guest” like Beyoncé or Taylor Swift would be performing at the last day of the Democratic National Convention.
The claims were likely promulgated by the Democrats to create an artificial buzz around the otherwise boring political event.

Throughout the week, Beyoncé songs were blasted through the speakers of the Chicago stadium hosting the DNC.
CBS News reporter Gayle King hinted Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce might somehow ditch his preseason NFL game on Thursday to attend the convention, which was another false hope given to Swifty viewers.
🚨REPORT: #Chiefs TE Travis Kelce recently reached out to Kamala Harris’s campaign about attending the DNC tonight, according to Gayle King of CBS.
Kelce is currently on the sideline at Arrowhead.

As soon as the DNC was over, Americans scrambled to the internet to blast the party for lying to its constituents, attendees and viewers.
The far Left media faked a surprise DNC Convention guest so that ratings would be artificially inflated.
Here is an @MSNBC activist reporter pretending that Beyonce was still coming even after her publicist’s denial.
Just like the faux jobs numbers. And a cease fire deal. And… https://t.co/FU0Oj9haVY

The DNC deliberately put out the rumor that Beyonce was gonna perform at the #DNCConvention2024 so that people would tune in.

Imagine going to a Beyoncé concert and it’s just someone pressing play on one of her CD’s and dropping some balloons

Why did you all make us believe Beyoncé was going to perform? #DNC2024

So they lied about Beyonce to get people to tune in and see Kamala talk? Smart.

So there was no “big surprise” at the DNC. Incredible.

The Democrats intentionally lied tonight and said that Beyoncé @Beyonce was going to be the special guest at the DNC to get people to watch.
They planted the story with TMZ too.
Beyoncé didn’t show up.
There wasn’t even a special guest tonight as promised.
Democrats lied…

Of course, the internet also responded with some hilarious memes.

Convincing people to tune in to the DNC convention with fake news about a huge surprise guest on gossip sites and then having no surprise guest at all sounds like the plot of a Veep episode pic.twitter.com/XBMjUo6kc6

It also appears as if the Democrats launched an army of bots or followers posting on X about the “special guest at the DNC” being “the friends we made along the way” in order to counter the massive backlash.

The disastrous DNC perfectly highlights how the left has to lie to their gullible followers to get their attention only to ignore them once elected to office.
