The Republican national Convention

Did he just claim the number of police getting shot has risen by 50% in a single year, then tie it to the rise in illegal immigrants?

He’s right about the laxity of enforcement though. There’s just no excuse for that poor girl getting murdered. And is it true that her killer is at large again?

Wait, did he just refer to Chicago is Obama’s hometown? I thought he was from Kenya.

Sarah Root was killed by a immigrant, true. But Donald never mentions that it was a traffic accident. He leaves that out, so it seems like she was gunned down or murdered in cold blood.

Well, at least on performance, since that kind of thing apparently matters, he’s doing quite well. The substance is a C- at best though.

EXCEPT that the Republican National Committee made a huge deal when Trump said that he wouldn’t endorse the eventual nominee and the South Carolina Republican Party actually threatened to take his delegates away. So the RNC comes across as: it’s bad when Trump does it but OK when Cruz does it. And I don’t know why we are not discussing how not “playing the game” affects Cruz’s chances in 2020.

I disagree with Trump on Clinton as SecState. Obama’s foreign policy was vastly superior when Clinton was running it than that limp noodle John Kerry.

The fact checkers are going to have a field day with this speech.

So far this is boring as hell.

I guess for Trump…that’s a win?

Heh he’s blaming Hillary for ISIS, Libya, Syria, oh man…

It’s non-stop on Twitter. Pretty much every every crime stat Trump cited is wrong or misrepresented.

Iran deal was TWO years after she left SecState role. Why is this so hard to keep track of?

HIs list of countries in chaos was obviously written for him. I don’t think he knows the first thing about any of those countries.

Hilary also responsible for Zika virus.

Okay, I might have made that one up.

I think he’s portraying Clinton and Obama as the same person or something.

Gotta admit his line about relying on the same politicians is an effective one though. The political class has failed, and it’s not just in the US, it’s a worldwide failure.

The Middle East was a bastion of peace and prosperity before Hillary came along and mucked it all up.

The world is about to be destroyed by “radical moooslims.” Only Daddy Trump can make things better.

This speech is relentless dark and negative. The opposite of inspirational.

The Middle East has one fewer despot since Clinton arrived. I call that a plus.

You mean, like his running mate, right? A HUGE invade Iraq fan. Still says there were WMD there.

Hey, on Jan 20, crime and violence will end. Why wouldn’t I vote for that?

Change, change, change. It’s an effective message though. Clinton represents the status quo in a huge way.
