    Let's Make America America Again. Thanks Scott. Now go sit down.

    Marcus Luttrell did pretty great and it was from the heart. Being coked up really contributed to his energy too.

    watching this now. been on 20 minutes and its been entirely c-list actors, and (grimly) grieving parents whose kids have been killed... like literally 6-7 parents being paraded out on stage to discuss their dead child. sick.

    william f buckley's convention this is not

    I love the CNN camera guy playing "where's blackie?" with the camera. They already found both of them.

    I can't believe what I'm watching. This is like the f---ing Twilight Zone.

    I'm not going to slam the parents, because they obviously want their children's lives to mean as much as possible, but the Republican Party really needs to move the f--- on from this. Benghazi has been dead in the water for literally YEARS.

    And that Duck Dynasty guy. Really? Again, what's the point? He's such a caricature of the stereotypical republican, embracing him is so embarrassing.

    This entire convention is really, really uninspired, and reminds me why I could never consider myself a conservative or republican.

    I think Trump's wife and potential First Lady plays a good role, despite the critics vehemently despising her. However, aside from her, this whole thing shifts between boring and batshit crazy.

    my major takeaway from this:

    is that michelle more than holds her own against an actual supermodel. like.. id do coke off melania but thats it. #teammichelle

    yeah. so that way your candidate (hillary) would have a better shot of winning. I like Gary Johnson but voting for him would actually help Hillary

    A sitting congressman literally asked what nonwhites have ever contributed to civilization, and it was roughly the 7th most significant event of the day.

    No. Because voting for Trump is profoundly irresponsible and stupid. Disagree with Hillary, there's little doubt she has the capacity/temperament to be president.
