    How will they be giving their speeches if there is no platform to stand on? Will they be giving their speeches from a hot tub?

    What we will see.

    Very little discussion of what Trump has done and no discussion of what his plan for the next 4 years will be.

    We will see Trump talk up the rioting. He will attempt to get around it happening on his watch by blaming blue state mayors. He will allude to black rioters coming to the suburbs if Biden is elected. He already changed the rule on low income housing for this very point.

    He will claim that a Biden Presidency happens, taxes will increase 4 billion dollars.

    He will try to paint Biden as mentally compromised and controlled by radical socialists that will lead the country into anarchy.

    His family will play a large part in the convention as well.

    Look for Trump to get a solid bump. His convention gets to go second and it will be interesting, more people will watch just out of curiosity.

    Also do not underestimate the classic "the blacks, mexicans and poor are coming for the suburbs appeal".... we are not THAT far removed from it being very successful.

    Hugh Hewitt has got to be trolling.

    The best interview in america? Is that because of the train wreck factor?

    Not sure anyone is interested but several reports that Rudy Giuliani is giving hand jobs in the park lot out side out back of the Capitol.

    Really? Rumor going around amongst lobbyists is that Pence cries and ***** his pants while being handcuffed to the bench.

    I'm sure the convention will be full of hope and greatness with no negativity whatsoever. Certainly, there will be no personal attacks on anyone. And, the greatness of America will be showcased. :rolleyes:

    Shout out to CNN for broadcasting the convention. Hopefully some will flee the asylum.

    They showed a video of Trump walking with black mask on. Probably only time he had mask on:)

    In the video praising Trump response to CV, Why are they go back to his initial response of Corona virus. There is no point reliving that. I am ok with promoting his response a bit later but that part about him reacting initially kinda puts a question on the whole video.

    This was touching...

    RNC Features Tribute From Family Members Of Americans Who Will Die If Trump Wins Second Term
    [​IMG]
    CHARLOTTE, NC—Applauding the soon-to-be bereaved widows and orphans for their profound sacrifices, the Republican National Convention kicked off Monday evening with a tribute from family members of Americans who will die if Donald Trump wins a second term. “Above all else, we wanted to use the convention to honor these brave citizens and all that they will suffer if we succeed in getting President Trump back into office,” said RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, touting the primetime slot of brief speeches from the potentially beleaguered parents and siblings as a chance to raise the profile of “true patriots” who will endure the unimaginable should the policies of the current White House remain in place for four more years. “One of the most powerful moments of the night was the standing ovation for that mother of two after she talked about how much she’ll miss her two boys who might die due to the continued lack of any clear federal response to the largest pandemic in a century. But what really got me was hearing from the 12-year-old who might become fatherless in 2021 if his dad gets a chance to believe the president about another disproven cure for Covid-19.” At press time, the RNC was airing a short sentimental tribute set to “(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life” dedicated to all 1,500,000 future victims of the pandemic after a 2020 Trump victory.
