Sounds like the headliners for a 96-hour infomercial for a Pyramid Scheme. Has the FTC been contacted? This is their purview.

Wasn’t poor ol’ Clint Eastwood going to speak again this time? He can yell at something empty again so everyone can wonder if it’s a performance piece or dementia. OH…I know! He can yell at Mike Pence for 15 minutes. Hell…I’d watch that!

BTW: Good news everybody! ~fist bump!~

According to CNN Money, Colbert will be performing his late show live during the convention. Although there is no firm announcement as to how Jon Stewart will participate, it’s been confirmed that he will be part of the broadcast.

This thing will be about as exciting and as memorable as watching C-Span on a Saturday night for entertainment, or for any other dumbass reason really.

“But mommy, they promised us an elephant. I want to see the elephant.”

If this was billed as the Greatest Show on Earth…Houston, we got a problem.

Headliners: Melania Trump, Lieutenant General (ret.) Michael Flynn, U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), Jason Beardsley and U.S. Rep. Ryan Zinke (Mont.).

From Crooks and Liars and from Sourcewatch

nutshell: Beardsley is a Concerned Veterans for America rep and an occasional Fox News contributor…

Tuesday: Make America Work Again
Headliners: Donald Trump, Jr., U.S. Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (WV), Ben Carson and Kimberlin Brown.

stops laughing

“[Capito] has called for increased screenings and tightened security following the recent terrorist attacks,” said Ashley Berrang, a spokeswoman for Sen. Shelley Moore Capito.

But banning all Muslims from entering the U.S. goes too far,” Berrang said. “Now is not the time for more divisive rhetoric; we need to be focused on serious solutions to address the dangers posed by ISIS.”

Well, Trump is keeping with the GOP tradition of not inviting Hollywood stars to speak at political events.

It goes on network TV at 10 p.m. Thankfully most Americans will be spared.
Even Fox is smart enough not to offer wall to wall coverage.
This will be like sitting in church for 400 hours straight, listening to a very bad preacher ramble on about nothing.
