WATCH: Kenan Thompson makes serious fun out of Project 2025 at the 2024 Democratic National Convention - PBS NewsHour
SNL star Kenan Thompson played a Democratic National Convention version of “Hollywood Squares” in Chicago on Wednesday, a night focused on fighting “for our freedoms,” from democracy to reproductive rights and more.
With regular Americans on a massive video screen behind him, Thompson pulled out the Democrats’ comically large hardbound copy of Project 2025, a Heritage Foundation blueprint for a potential second term for former President Donald Trump.
Thompson told one woman the plan would end civil rights protections for LGBTQ people, and another Department of Education employee that Project 2025 urges Trump to “purge the civil service of everyone who isn’t a MAGA loyalist,” and eliminate the department.
Later in the evening, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will formally accept the Vice Presidential nomination, a day before Vice President Kamala Harris takes the stage as the official nominee. - Aired on 08/21/2024.
