That is how it's done, repugs. I'm so proud of my party for pulling off this first ever...

virtual convention with great production values and smooth pacing and just a nice visual to look at and take in the great speeches and "we the people" features.

Loved it.

Try and top that, repugs.

the propaganda show that is the republican party is not about Americans, it's about trump. the only ones left are nazis and trump cultists.

trump can't effectively stand there and brag about 170,000 deaths and millions of lost jobs. The spectre of another possibly greater depression, the kowtowing to despots and tyrants, his effort to rule absolutely instead of govern democratically. he's got nothing but an ever shrinking base of enchanted fools.

Explaining what they stand for and what they've done is kind of a loser gambit. Maybe they can find a dozen moron's to provide a variety of ignorant, nonsensical testimonials.

it's only going to get better.

Thinking ahead to the Repigs' convention, I'd imagine Fat donnie will dominate throughout and it will be a dour, accusatory display. They're all so humorless and sour-faced. The contrast will be interesting. Any bets on how many times they'll play "Proud to be an American"?

he won't want to give up that sweet, sweet spotlight to let anyone else talk--he jonses for it like a junkie needing a fix. Plus Postmaster KillJoy will be getting the shit deposed out of him at the same time...should be very interesting.
