Tim Scott did a great job. Everyone else was just crazy people saying crazy crap. Nikki Haley coulda been great but wasnât even allowed to say âconfederate flagâ since Jr was gonna be wrapping himself in one an hour later.
I applauded Haley when she got the flag taken down. But I had to laugh tonight when she brought it up. And all I could think of was Trump praising the NASCAR fans that wave it.
The fact checkers are working overtime. One thing is for sure. The RNC is producing this trying to shore up their base. I think that they are nervous that perhaps they donât have the base numbers that they had in 2016.
Yeah, I thought it was going to be good because Trump is such a showman. Theyâll have a chance to learn from their mistakes and tomorrow should be better.
WowâŚI went to bed early and missed this endorsement from the only man to ever win the Heisman twice and he clearly dispells Trump being a racist. He encompasses well why Trump is the better candidate, says it plainly and I must agree.
In addition to Tim Scott and Kim Klacik
they should have also included Larry Elder, Carol Swain, Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell and Shelby Steele to speak.
As well as show excerpts from Larry Elderâs film âUncle Tomâ.
You will notice this thread has been dominated by the leftists on the boardâŚthey have focused on one or two speechesâŚ
Walkerâs not among themâŚyou can tell that most of the night was really good since all these leftists want to talk about seems to be basically two speakers out of many.
Walker was great, his comment about not having a friendship of 37 years with Trump as a racist was powerfulâŚso was Ambassador HaleyâŚGuilfoyle did exactly what I expected from her she wasnât as bad as they are making her out to have beenâŚ
Kim Klacik, the 38 year old African American woman running for Congress from Baltimore could have had a little more time to speakâŚwhat a compelling young woman. The woman crediting Trumpâs Right to Try idea for the fact sheâs still alive was movingâŚ
The star of the night whom no lib has touched was Tim Scott. He could run in four years against Pence and Haley and maybe the Governor of South Dakota and he might get my vote. âFrom Cotton Fields to Congressâ was the line of the night.
Personally I thought it was a helluvan opening nightâŚthere was more pro America pride and positive energy in one night than that entire anti American snooze fest of a week ago.
But far be it for me to interrupt a bunch of liberals confirming each otherâs confirmation bias, which is pretty much all this thread has been.
Micheal Goodwin has a great column at foxnews.comâŚ
Headline - " At upbeat Republican Convention, speakers make strong pitch for Black votes"
I didnât mention the great commentary by Vernon Jones, a black Democrat from GeorgiaâŚ" Vernon Jones, a lifelong Democrat in the Georgia General Assembly, showed a wicked sense of humor, saying that when Trump âsought to earn the Black vote, the Democratic Party leaders went crazy! Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer literally started wearing Kente cloth scarves around the Capitol!â
I understand why leftists on this board are freaking out. God forbid people should actually pull back the curtain on the nonsense of the political left.
Goodwinâs column later makes this powerful point. "Trump only got 8 percent four years ago and it would be something of an earthquake if he could double that, which could be enough to turn the election. Itâs also possible that by merely competing for the vote he could cut into some of the anti-Trump fervor and make moderate Whites more comfortable voting for Trump.
But Dems are especially vulnerable this year because they have put so much effort into turning out urban voters. The party, seized by identity politics, is supporting Black Lives Matter and Bidenâs pick of Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate as part of an effort to bolster the turnout among both women and non-Whites.
I always get confused.
Now we DO care what athletes think?
Can you give me a heads up when we care about movies stars opinions and when we donât?
Iâll be honest, given Trumpâs success as a reality tv star I was expecting entertaining TV. This is his wheel house.
I missed the speach cause I found night 1 either ridiculous or worse, boring.
Iâm sure itâs gonna get better but day 1 seemed a complete mess. Not what I was expecting.
May I never hate anyone butâŚthat doesnât include actions. When I consider the destruction of Democrat led cities around the nation and their coordinated walk away movement of it, not punishing anyone for this mayhem, that just motivates this destruction even moreâŚyesâŚI hate these actions/inactions.
