I've never watched a Repub convention, but I can't wait to see this one.

[LAS14]

I can't imagine how they're going to fill 8 hours when the central character is such a stupid narcisist.

What about you all?

1. I'm looking forward to watching it for the joy of turning it off after 30 seconds.

[PJMcK]

2. I've watched them

It's often instructive. It can also be hilarious.

Mostly, they're infuriating.

This one promises to be a convention for the ages, I think.

[fleur-de-lisa]

3. Hell no. Dump craves attention and ratings.

Why give him what he wants?

Just wait a few hours and the major news networks will show you the nonsense he barfed up.

[Thekaspervote]

11. This!! Would love to see the viewership numbers tank

[stillcool]

4. I'm not allowed...Doctor's orders

[Aristus]

5. Watch as much of it as you can stand, then report back to us.

I don't have the gastric fortitude to stomach as little as a nanosecond of it. But I am interested in knowing how bad a shit-show it is bound to be...

[HotTeaBag]

6. Everything depends on the playoff hockey schedule (especially the Flyers)

but if I can watch I really want to - I am curious as to what they can possibly talk about. Chances are it will be wall-to-wall 'Law & Order' and fawning over Trump with a generous amount of bashing and blaming Democrats for...everything.

My curiosity is mostly piqued by the new nickname that Trump will have for Biden since 'Sleepy Joe' and 'China Joe' have fallen flat.

7. I can't remember the last time I watched an RNC. Probably should but just no interest.

If something really interesting happens I'm sure I will see it somewhere.

[Initech]

8. Because he'll be surrounded by other stupid narcissistic douchebags, like:

- Smirking MAGA douchebag Nicholas Sandman
- Those St. Louis douchebgas who aimed their guns at protestors
- Narcissistic douchebag Donald Trump Jr.
- Narcissistic douchebag Mike Lindell
- Narcissistic douchebags Diamond & Silk

Anyway you get the idea.

[Dread Pirate Roberts]

9. I heard they're bringing in Leni Riefenstahl to do the production.

That ought to rally the base!

[LAS14]

17. Good one! nt

[Polly Hennessey]

10. Let's see, it will be about how the republicans

are the law and order party while most of them have been arrested, been indicted, or found guilty of criminal activity. We will hear how everything that has ever, ever happened is Obama’s fault. And on it goes. If the Idiot is going to give a speech each night, we will be tortured by a slurring, monotone monologue. He will tell us how great he is and he is the best ever. We will have to endure Jared, Ivanka, Melanie, Pence, Nikki Hailey. I have a feeling it will not be as smooth and hopeful as the Democratic convention.

[LAS14]

18. I'll mute whenever he's shown speaking. nt

[Blue Owl]

12. A 4-day shitshow of basking in tRump's reflected glory

I suppose there could be some fantastic train-wreck moments, but... Ugh...

[LiberalBrooke]

14. I will not watch either. My blood pressure can't take the stress and

I do not want to add to his watch numbers. Please come here and give me the details of the clusterf**k I expect it to be,

[JenniferJuniper]

13. "Now let's hear a few words on the state of the union from Scott Baio"

Hell, yes, I'll watch it. I need a laugh.

[rockfordfile]

15. No.

Why would a democrat watch that Nazi crap?

[frazzled]

16. I won't watch one second

I can read about it or see recaps, but I won't allow myself to be tortured in that way by turning the channel to watch. We have to protect our mental as well as physical health in these times. I want the ratings to be miserable as well.
