I love Cruz hitting illegal immigration so hard. Some of this is rough to listen to.


I agree and he could have spoken for days on examples.

Arguably the biggest problem with the GOP base is they care more about soundbites and social media posts than track record of implementing conservative policies

That's true of the vast majority of all voters though. I mean, most people aren't sitting around watching the GOP, or DNC, convention. They aren't posting on a political forum, or talking about politics in their normal lives. They only ever see soundbites so it is important to have strong speakers who can articulate conservative ideals, even if they are political neophytes, because the only way to elect conservative politicians and effect change is to get people to vote for conservative ideals.

You or I could get up there and spout fundamental conservative ideals til the cows come home. No one would care, unless you are a much better speaker than I am, because how ideas are communicated is a lot of times just as important as how they are delivered.

ETA: I do a camping trip every year for my birthday. This year it is Thursday - Sunday. I have already told the people I will be with that I am going to be watching the Trump speech Thursday night so they could do what they wanted during that time and I would join them after. Normal voters don't do that.

Melania at convention?


She’ll be there, but not yet. I would imagine all his children will be there as well.

Haley and DeSantis up next. This to me is the most important of this RNC aside from Trump himself.

Why did Hannity totally ignore Ted Cruz?

I was looking forward to Ted’s border speech.

"Democrats believe in handouts not handcuffs" is a great line. How has no one used that before?

It’s why I’m wanting to find a station showing the convention instead of the anchors.

Nikki Haley up. This is probably the speech I'm most interested in.

FOX has a livestream on YouTube that is basically just the speeches, it has a host but he doesn't interrupt much.

She does but she has a base in the GOP who is needed for Trump to win.
