Can you imagine the Trump Republican Convention?

We had a great time last night coming up with what it might look like. I imagine one of his minions will be in charge. Lots of gold, Trump products everywhere, a gold throne for him to sit on after the vote. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Does anyone know the reasoning for Medicare not covering eyes and dental?

My mother in law is having lots of problems with her eyes, her glasses cost a fortune last time. I think when it comes time for me to be on medicare I will stay on my husband's eye coverage until he retires. It doesn't make sense to me. I figure there had to be some under the table lobby thing involved in the decision when it was made.

I saw Jane Sanders on tv this morning and I had a bit of an epiphany.

I think she is the one who is pushing him to be more negative towards Hillary. I think she is the one who doesn't really care if a Democrat wins as long as their "revolution" continues on. I don't think they realize the platform is in most cases an empty document.

I also think she is the only advisor he listens to. I have said I would vote for the nominee, but after all the Bernie supporters I have come in contact with here and in my day to day life and seeing more of Jane, I don't know if I could support him.

I feel confident the math says Hillary will be our nominee, thank goodness, but it sure seems like Jane has a lot of power over him and not all of it is good.
