No doubt, totally F.O.S!
It’s totally also a coincidence the number of speaking times got reduced from 43 to 18.
Anyone who suggests otherwise is a nasty, nasty guy.
I can see how there would be a long waiting list - every grifter in the country wants a piece of the action.
Any hints as to who is on the speaking list? No, it’s a surprise!!!
Starting to look more and more like we’re headed for some kind of convention telethon, with a scowling Trump as m.c. No money, no speakers, bring in the clown acts.
Trump doesn’t realize that most of US hasn’t seen and/or won’t appreciate his stream-of-consciousness bs – 10,000 people showing up for a rally can’t be wrong, amirite Donald? Total vote for president likely to be around 130,000,000, so do 130 of those rallies and you’ll be cracking 1% of the electorate.

there is no surprise… Donnie Dipshit will fill any empty speaking slot himself even tho he vowed to not speak the ull four days…
I spent years with an organization that put on multiple conferences a year, including large conventions, and I don’t remember any talk of a “waiting list” for speakers. They were booked for the available slots and barring some unforeseen problem they’d come and do their thing. I wasn’t actually in the conferences division but unless I’m missing something Donald is slinging it again, this being a day that ends in “Y”. Anyone else ever heard of such a thing?
The only “waiting list” regarding Trump that I’m aware of is the long list of people still waiting to get paid for services rendered.
I have known a few inveterate liars in my life. Once it is established that they lie regularly it gets too tiresome to have to investigate every single claim that comes out of their mouths. The rule of thumb becomes: if it sounds at all fishy just assume it’s a lie. I don’t think we have to do a lot of research to know that Trump is lying about the waiting lists.
“Trump announced Friday that his wife and children “are all going to be
speaking” at the nominating convention that kicks off in just over two
weeks. And the real estate mogul has also promised to add sports figures
and other non-politicians who are supporting him to the roster of
convention speakers, which would set the 2016 convention apart from past
conventions packed with current and former elected officials.”
Don’t hold your breath on speakers outside of the Trump family.All the other “SPEAKERS” are scattering like roaches when you turn on a light,Trump light that is.
Maybe he’s going to fill the spots with Clint Eastwood’s empty chairs. The should be quite a few of them.
The whole Trump crime family will be speaking? How heart-warming!
Michael Cohen has a slot where he will address the “NeverTrump” contingent. He’ll be informing them he’s taking every dime they’ve ever earned and will make them effing regret ever being born.
It’s like the Sound of Music, but from the World of Darkness.
Believe me, I assume he’s lying every time he opens his pie hole. But I also usually assume I could be wrong so if someone wants to pop up and say “Actually conference speaker waiting lists are rare, but not unknown” or whatever I’ll listen up. What I really like is how this is a good example of the casual, breezy, and extremely sloppy nature of Trump’s constant lies. In, general, sure, a popular thing might have a waiting list. But not a conference speaker listing, it doesn’t work that way. But he lets fly with the first lie that pops into his head because he’s not cautious or smart enough to wonder if his lies sound plausible.
(T)he speaking spots had been “totally filled” and the campaign would announce them next week.
There you go! With two whole weeks to spare! And to think you kooky libs thought there were problems!
Seriously, I’m glad Cleveland won a championship before being annihilated.
Trump will run the convention like his rallies. Sell tickets for 20,000 in an arena that accomodates 3000 and then bask in the media reports of huge crowds needing to be turned away. His campaign staff probably e-mailed a speaking slot invitation to every Republican officeholder in the nation, then picked through the 2790 that RSVP’d.
