Various images targeting Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and Sen. JD Vance, the party’s vice presidential nominee, were projected onto Trump Tower late Sunday night before 1 p.m. the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
As Democrats came to town for the four-day convention, various taunts were visible on the side of the building, such as “Project 2025 HQ,” referring to a conservative plan for the next Republican president — one that Trump has repeatedly distanced himself from.
Along with accompanying messages in Spanish, one taunt read: “Trump-Vance Weird as hell.” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, whom Vice President Kamala Harris picked as her running mate earlier this month, referred to Trump and Vance as “scary.” ” and “weird as hell” during a rally.
Other messages expressed support for the Democratic ticket, such as “Harris, Walz, Joy and Hope.”
In a statement about the projections, the DNC said in part, “..All eyes are on Chicago, and tonight everyone sees a preview of the contrast that will take center stage this week throughout the Democratic National Convention.”
Monday marks the start of the convention, with Harris accepting the party’s presidential nomination on Thursday night.
