The Republican national Convention

None of Trump’s kids is registered to vote. Or at least, were not registered in time to vote in the New York primary.

I think you nailed it

That was a pretty good speech. Trump made his appeal to the berniebros, lgbtq, and generally laid out a plan without insulting anyone.

That being said it was absolutely terrifying him promising to turn the US into a police state on in first day in office and he sure didn’t make any sense with huge tax breaks followed by twenty minutes on how much more money he was going to spend. I’m also curious how many hours a day he thinks there are if he is going to individually negotiate true agreements with every country in the world.

One question I had was is he seriously proposing cutting off immigration from every country with terrorists? It seems like that includes France at this point so that seems like he wants to end all immigration which I haven’t heard before.

Don’t we have terrorists in our country?

I thought I was going to eat some popcorn, but all I did was stare.

So as I saw it lived streamed, appears the nominee and is VP ended the RNC convention with The Rolling Stones, you can’t always get what you want. I can only go with “practiced in the art of deception” and bloody hands was directed to his openent.

Rolling Stones are English, so was Shakespeare. A deft allusion to Lady McDuck.

I heard a list like this once but I can’t think… Oh wait, I know. It was a list of ailments that would be cured by the medicine this totally legit guy was selling from the trunk of his car. Can’t think what was in it now. Oil maybe. Some sort of reptile oil, I think.

Yeah, what’s required is someone more grounded who knows what it’s really like to be Joe Average, like… I know! Donald Trump!

I’m Scottish, and very much appreciated your comment.

That’s why I assumed he couldn’t win the nomination. The GOP is hostile to New York City folk in good times. I guess Rudy just ran the wrong type of campaign in 2008. He’s probably thinking he could nail it if he could just go back.

Sure but I don’t think he’s to worried about them immigrating out of the US. Although early in his speech he side something about not wanting anyone in the US who practiced violence, hatred or discrimination or something along those lines so maybe he’s planning on shipping a lot of people out of the country in short order.

Here are the nnotes I took while watching:

Not good at reading TelePrompter speeches

Blatant play for Bernheads

Why did he seem to link Pence with opposition to free trade?

What was the weird swipe under his chin?

Trump just called out GOP for traditionally being antigay

This speech was boring. Might be the worst error Trump could make. He’s checking boxes.

“I’m not sure I deserve it”–most self-effacing thing he has ever said?

The “loyalty pledge” jibe was clever, I will grant him that.

Is his youngest son really only nine? He’s so tall! I also wonder if he is on the autism spectrum.

Why on Earth would they play “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” at the end?

He’s going to have students work off their debt by taking care of veterans; once the vets are back on their feet, they can rejoin the military, and will be sent overseas to crack down on deadbeat countries. Easy Peasy.

Meanwhile, that speech could have been delivered by Eddie Dane from Millers Crossing: “I’m gonna send you to a deep, dark place and I’m gonna enjoy doing it”.

I appreciate no one jumping on me for my misquote earlier I believe it is practiced at the art…

That song certainly was an interesting choice. I think he felt it very appropriate, all about him and her a twisted tale indeed. Try listening to the song again.

Trump can’t possibly believe that he can deliver on even ten percent of all those promises. I’ve never seen that level of desperation before. It was stunning in it’s dishonesty.

But that’s not true. I wanted Trump to shut the fuck up and eventually he did.

He’s going to build a wall. It’s going to be made of the finest bullshit, and the first course was laid tonight.

You owe me a keyboard.
