I am so blown away by this convention

The uplifting stories, the common sense, talking about things that matter to working class Americans.

What a contrast from the hate and fear last week. And we even have bigger celebrities not has beens like baio and sabato.

I imagine the networks are missing a lot of it. CSPAN is doing it justice as always.

He bloviated about how disjointed the convention was as how the Repubs had theme nights and stayed on message. Even suggested that Hillary dissed Twitter... not just the orange crazy man that tweets nonsense.

This convention is far from disjointed... it's about people and it's beautiful...
