JerryBaumchen 1,066 #129 July 21, 2016 Hi Mark, QuoteWhy does it look like a Disney Pin Convention? While I know nothing about 'a Disney Pin Convention,' this convention seems to have just about nothing going right for it. If he runs his campaign like this, he is probably doomed.

billvon 2,434 #131 July 21, 2016 QuoteIf he runs his campaign like this, he is probably doomed. Well, on the plus side, even if he loses, his supporters now know what a Trump presidency would look like. Commentary from FOX News on the convention: ================== Yesterday I asked you, do you think this convention is a success? I just don't understand. To me this is the worst convention I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot of them. But day after day, there's no consistent message that would appeal to people who may be undecided and are looking - and thinking - gosh, I wonder if I could really go for -- maybe I don't like Hillary Clinton so much, real questions about her trustworthiness, on and on. So could I go for Donald Trump and now Mike Pence? Well I think Mike Pence is forgettable. I gotta tell you. I don't think most Americans knew him before and I don't think most Americans are going to remember him after last night. I think they're going to go to what Eric said, which is the theme of the whole day, all the headlines, all the news coverage, about Ted Cruz. =================== When FOX News is calling it the worst convention ever . . . .

ryoder 1,400 #134 July 22, 2016 Caitlyn Jenner talked about the difficulties of being a trans woman in the Republican Party today, a day after Ben Carson referred to "this whole transgender thing" as "absurd." "It was easy to come out as trans, it was harder to come out as Republican," the Olympic gold medalist said... ... Jenner mentioned at the brunch that three Republican state representatives had been arrested for "lewd behavior" in a men's restroom at a time when no transgender people were arrested for their behavior in the bathrooms, according to The Associated Press. "Maybe what we should do is ban Republican representatives at a state level from being in the men's room," Jenner said.

Phil1111 915 #140 July 22, 2016 rehmwa******yeah - it felt like arguing with a room of hardcore democrats - step one little toe out of line, even if you agree with them 90%, even act like an independent thinker, and they start calling you names Replace "hardcore democrats" with the far extreme end of any group. Pro or Anti; gun, abortion, dolphin rights, comic books, whatever. My Little Pony . . . Cheerfully agree - extremists suck except for CrWdawgs and packers Now you have it. In elections the candidates arise and are vetted by the hard core activists within the party. Thats why extremists sometimes come to the fore. When President Obama was RE-ELECTED the RNC went through an extensive period of hand wringing and despondent thinking about what went horribly wrong. Gee no Black, Hispanic, working poor, support and low support from the middle class. Now, instead, they have nominated a "outsider" that alienates ...everyone! Get ready for eight more years of democratic presidents. Eight years to appoint SC justices, eight years for more gun control, higher taxes, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nolhtairt 0 #141 July 22, 2016 Jon Stewart said this last night on Colbert's The Late Show: "The Republicans appear to have a very clear plan for America. They articulated it throughout the convention. No. 1, jail your political opponent. No. 2, inject Rudy Giuliani with a speedball and a Red Bull enema. And then No. 3, spend the rest of the time scaring the holy bejesus out of everybody," Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
