Very appreciative that @CNN covered the vast majority of the Republican Convention last night. That was really good for CNN, while at the same time being good for our Country. Thank you!

We literally witnessed a your son appear to be on cocaine, and his girlfriend appeared to be possessed by the devil. If you really think it's good that America watched the 2020 version of a Nazi propaganda movie, then you are nuts!

The RNC Convention was simply a B-version of a Nazi propaganda film, that tried unsuccessfully to gaslight Americans into believing Trump is someone who he is not, and that Joe Biden is somehow the second coming of Fidel Castro. We aren't that gullible!

Maybe that contributes to Trump's seeming obsession with that network. He hates anything that implies he didn't 'win' by virtue of sheer charisma, wit and intellect.

...or at least provide coverage.

I actually feel sorry for the people whose job it is to watch it from start to finish in case there's breaking news or whatever.
