*****Republican National Convention thread. Let the games begin.*****

Anyone got a live feed for todays events ?

Very good response by Manafort to Melania Trump speech...
www.msnbc.com...

He said that the Clinton camp got the controversy out there first and noted that when Hillary Clinton is threatened by a woman she tries to attack and destroy them... very good line.

I'm not sure if they will continue on the same stream tonight.

The hypocrisy here is beyond critical mass.

It sure is.

Michelle Obama Copied Alinsky in Speech Melania Trump Allegedly Plagiarized

So, two wrongs make a right, when a Republican is concerned? According to you and Breitbart?

Yep. As usual.

For the record, In my opinion, whoever wrote the speech for her is the one that should be taking the flak, not Mrs. Trump. She only read it.

No idea - Manafort claims her campaign started the story. True or not? Who knows.
My point it was a good retort.

Agreed on the last point. You know it's an election season when such things become headline news.

Of course, once again, Donald is the victim. His campaign is being victimized by some outside force. Not his fault, Not fair, and shouldn't be tolerated... Heard that before many times when it comes to his screw ups.

Probably all spin, but that is what these politicians do.

This may be one. Looks like they are replaying some things from yesterday.
And the CNN live stream:

So after getting a TRASHING at the convention last nite between Rudy,Clarke,and Smith.

The Democrats strategy was to play word nazis.

Apparently it does make it right.

Yeah, you'd think they'd want to spend more time trying damage limitation on the 'Hillary killed my son' narrative.

That roll call nonsense yesterday was insane. Are they trying to implode their own party? Ridiculous.

Had a Dem try and tell me that not allowing it was cheating. No it wasn't. 3 states pulled their call for it, leaving only 6 (not the needed 7) calling for it.

Besides, HAD it gone through, wouldn't THAT really be cheating? i.e. cheating the voters out of their voice?

Go ahead GOP, keep trying these shenanigans....and while voting Trump for POTUS, some of us just may vote DEM down the rest of the ballot, JUST to spite you and end such nonsense.

My thoughts.

That Plagiarized speech was soo funny. What an Idiot. We want her as first lady? LOL

Second, I don't care if he's right on a few points, I can't stand Giuliani. He's turned into a lathering attack dog, that makes no sense 95% of the time. I don't allow negative, hateful people in my life like that, I kick them out of my business as needed. He is one of the biggest idiots out there. Totally mentally incompetent. Not sure how he ever became Mayor of NY City? I guess anyone could get elected, but a simple psychological evaluation would exclude him from most jobs besides dishwasher here in the USA. Who allowed that lunatic on stage?

It's interesting that the left chose to push the 'cheating' narrative. The rules were applied and there was not enough support for a floor vote. As you say, only 6 states with enough signatures. That said, I am still suspicious of the reasons the 3 states pulled their support for a floor vote. I would, however, expect the MSM to report the specifics in a more balanced way. Too much to ask I suspect.

This is interesting..
