6. See this...

It can now safely be said, as his first term in the White House draws toward closure, that Donald Trump’s party is the very definition of a cult of personality. It stands for no special ideal. It possesses no organizing principle. It represents no detailed vision for governing. ...

“Owning the libs and pissing off the media,” shrugs Brendan Buck, a longtime senior congressional aide and imperturbable party veteran if ever there was one. “That’s what we believe in now. There’s really not much more to it.”

Even Republican strategists have no clue why the party they support is doing what it's doing, but I think that the answer is pretty straightforward: TrumpCo is simply a massive, fraudulent, criminal organization which is performing a smash-and-grab operation on the American taxpayer (as well as on Republican donors).

We've known this all along of course, but it's slowly starting to dawn on GOP party loyalists that something might be amiss, which is why they're standing around scratching their heads in confusion as the whole thing starts to collapse.

11. I have to tell you EarlG .. I am very frightened right now..

California is burning, and the orange idiot refuses to send money because his fee fees were hurt that we voted against him. Now he is being like a fucking child holding back the ball and wants to take it home cause we didn't play nice with him. Its not just him, its Mitch McConnell, and the Republican Senate, doing this shit since Obama was President .

But now Trump is having delusions of grandeur. To take a line from Star Trek's Trouble with Tribbles ,, TRUMP IS a swaggering, overbearing, tin-plated dictator with delusions of godhood.

If they cheat, and some how grab this election, there will be a massive amount of depression followed by Anger.. I think it might lead to another Civil war, and this one even more bloodier because the pandemic will be going on also... IF Trump wins, so does the Covid 19 virus..

Image 310,000 dead Americans by November, think what it might look like if Trump is President for Four Terms, He has already stated if elected he wants a four more years to make up for the four years he was harassed.

He didn't joke when he talked to Xi Jinping about being President for Life.. and whats fucking scary is his total administration wouldn't care if he was President for life, because they would become even more rich, as they crush the working poor... and the middle class will be gone.

He doesn't care about all the deaths.. He wants to be another Rodrigo Duterte. He never will be cause he is too much a coward, because if a gun goes off near by he will probably wet his pants and run.

But what he will do to this country beyond this... we may become the next shithole country. And Q'anon in CONGRESS... this is beyond the fucking pale.

13. You Don't Think He's Watching The Falwell Videos, Do You???

8. Started the whole thing a few days ago with a funeral

Perfect way to start a festival.

[Skittles]

but doing that and then whining that Dems don't have enough God in their convention? EGREGIOUS.

[EarlG]

17. Poor Eric i knew he was going to be the first Trump to be thrown under bus...

[George II]

18. A whole month's worth of bad news squeezed into just about 8 hours.

[Dukkha]

19. so much winning

Keep sucking up to evangelicals to get re-elected dumbass. Such a brilliant strategy!

[Grokenstein]

20. A modern-day Hindenburg.

A Nazi gasbag bursts and crashes in its big welcoming party.
When I watch Robert Wise's The Hindenburg (1975) the announcer's coverage is heartbreaking.
But if I imagine it's Sean Hannity covering the convention, it makes me cheer.

[mucifer]

21. and 42% of USA says they approve of trump

[MyMission]

22. Watch RNC on Lincoln project TV on YouTube.

If you must watch, give them the ratings. They did a brutal preshow analysis, and their after show should be even more so.

I've shut it down twice so far, but will reopen it to check it out at various points this evening. I wanted to see what craziness they were spouting at their convention. Batshit craziness!

[TheCowsCameHome]

23. Winning bigly.

[Initech]

24. And Chump was gloating "12 more years!".

Yeah right!

[JudyM]

25. Most excellent turns of events.

[mdbl]

26. Convention is off to a great start!

[BootinUp]

27. A train wreck never gets better, either. nt

28. On the way home from a grueling day at the hospital

I turned my car radio to AM talk radio. It was some CBS affiliate news program obviously trying to pump RW talking points to their listeners. They were bragging about how wonderful it was that tRump "fixed" the crime bill that Joe Biden was responsible for, giving the criminal justice system a fairer shake to the accused. WTF? I shut it off. It's not just Fox and AON that are pumping radio listeners full of RW nutjobbery. Every day I shudder at statistics like 42 percent of citizens somehow approving of tRump. Then I hear shit like that and can't help but wonder, with so much of the country being kept in the dark and fed a lot of bullshit...
