dysfunctional man, given to impulsive behaviors and whose attention span is far too short to sit through a security briefing, is one election day away from the nuclear codes.

Chris whatshisface just said the only time the entire convention stands up together to applaud is when a speaker insults Hillary Clinton, which they do often to keep some energy going. These people would put a dangerous mental defective in the oval office to spite what she stands for to them.

1st or 2nd state had a woman of color standing right next to the speaking delegate, then California speaker was an African American woman. Stop with the pseudo diversity, repukes...oh..and the Sikh woman who led the opening prayer.

the convention? I know it's the GOP, but you would think they wouldn't wave that thing around on national tv. I don't think the Democrats will bring it with them, thank the FSM.

His ghostwriter says that is his core problem.

That and the absolute lack of care about what anyone thinks.

He loves negative PR.

Loves it.
