I have to admit, I was looking forward to the reaction shots from senators in the crowd fighting for re-election.

The convention will be all about T-Rump. His son-in-law is working on the transition team. I think I would be more qualified than his relatives. There is talk of having entertainment at the convention. Maybe the Rockettes and Ted Nugent would be there. For the first time I plan to watch the convention.

In order to avoid a mass of Eastwoodian empty chairs, they will need to either invite white supremacist groups or pay extras to attend the convention.

Can you imagine the All Star Line Up? Dennis Miller, Kid Rock, Meat Loaf, Jon Voight, Victoria Jackson, James Woods, Donny and Marie, Rush Limbaugh, Adam Sandler, Pat Sajak, Loretta Lynn and Clint with his chair while Glenn Beck leads a protest outside the arena???

The NRSC is BEGGING Senators to STAY AWAY!

Any elected or party official who doesn’t repudiate Trump owns him. Should be brought to trial when the regime is brought to trial after the US is liberated by the Canadian army.

I feel sorry for the city of Cleveland - I’m sure they thought this convention would bring much needed money to their city but it seems like it will end up being a drain instead. They’ll still have to provide the police/fire/security as if it was a giant event and, while there are sure to be plenty of drunk and disorderlies, this will run very much in the red.

The hookers, though, are probably relieved…

Opportunity for every opponent of these blue state and weak red state Republicans to take them down.
Do you support Mr Trump and his policy of _________________? But you said you support him…
Watch em squirm.

John McCain owns a piece of this. In 2008, had he chosen a political figure with a decent track record-within a few degrees of McCain’s stances and perhaps from a crucial state–Sarah Palin would not have paved the way for entertainment candidates, such as we have in Trump.

On the other hand, Grindr and the other hookup apps will be doing a booming business.
