LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In his recent Fox News show, Sean Hannity sharply critiqued the Democratic National Convention (DNC), predicting a deliberate effort by Kamala Harris and Tim Walz’s campaign to obscure their controversial positions.

Hannity's commentary highlighted his belief that the convention will be more focused on attacking Donald Trump rather than addressing their own policies and records.

Sean Hannity claims DNC will never tell voters the truth

“Conventions are so choreographed that the convention itself will be scripted to the second,” Sean Hannity remarked, emphasizing the planned nature of the event.

He pointed out that a McLaughlin poll shows many voters are unaware of Harris’s support for eliminating private health insurance, defunding ICE, and providing free housing and health care. “The campaign knows that if they tell you the truth and you hear them in their own words, the odds of them winning are next to zero,” Hannity said.



 

He also compared the DNC’s strategy to Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, suggesting it aims to keep Harris and Walz out of the spotlight and avoid discussions of their policies. “So they've got to hide it, and they're going to try to hide it, just like they hid Joe Biden in the basement all through 2020,” Hannity argued.

Sean Hannity critiques DNC for avoiding Kamala Harris' 'radical' policy position

A central theme in Sean Hannity’s critique was the DNC's avoidance of discussing Kamala Harris and Tim Walz’s more radical policy positions.

“Look at this new McLaughlin poll, very revealing. It found a huge majority of Democratic and independent voters are totally and completely unaware of her support for eliminating private health insurance. And of course that would include universal health care and Medicare for All,” Hannity said.

Hannity also predicted that the media coverage of the convention would be similarly selective.

He anticipated that the DNC would focus on attacking Trump rather than presenting a transparent view of the Democratic candidates’ policies. “The DNC will stay far away from four very specific things."

He continued, "They will not want to ever talk about Kamala or any previous far-left policy issue. They will avoid playing Governor Walz in his words about his radical beliefs, there will be no mention of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz's numerous flipping and flopping.

"You are not going to hear about the people in their party who support pro-Hamas protestors. They will ignore this base that she needs to vote for her in order to win," Hannity added.
