Acceptance speech

[89th]

Not much social distancing in the crowd though.

[LuFins Dad]

They need more flags...

[Mik]

If he can stay on message he will win.

Key theme of the campaign: ‘None of this would be happening if Donald Trump were President’.

@89th said in Acceptance speech:

He loves the stage, can’t wait for the debates.

He loves holding court. He’s very different in debates. He gets very agitated and is easily riled. We’ll see how it unfolds, but I don’t think it will be a rally with a foil on the next podium.

Reason magazine’s Peter Suderman: “I feel like I just binge watched an entire season of Trump’s speech”

Face it, you wouldn't like him if he had Roman candles shooting out his arse.

Was a good fireworks show...

“ This speech is the political equivalent of a CSA: You get a random box of whatever the farm decides to deliver that week, and inevitably it's a total grab bag. You don't recognize half the vegetables and the other half is just kale. But, you know, at least there's a lot of it.”

[LuFins Dad]

That’s a helluva fireworks display.

[LuFins Dad]

All of those Democrats living in DC have to be really pissed.

[jon-nyc]

Rod Dreher: The words just sort of leaked out of his mouth and evaporated.

[Larry]

Jon, its really a shame youre such a yellow dog democrat. If you were able to think objectively youd see so much clearer.....

Q will have so much fun deciphering it.

Just watched from my rooftop.

Is it normal for incumbents to do their convention at the White House?

[jon-nyc]

No it probably is illegal in practice but no one ever enforces the particular act.

Why would you ask that question? Quiz time where did Trump and the RNC want the convention?

It’s also not normal for there to be “political/convention fireworks on government property” which the liberal media liked to mention about 10 times in the minute after the speech ended, at least on the CBS channel i was watching last night.

[Mik]

CBS also started IMMEDIATELY saying that some claim of his was 'misleading'.

89 mention he could see the the fireworks, and I remembered I’ve usually seen these things in stadiums. But wasn’t sure.
