Republican National Convention (RNC) - 2020
-
The Republican Party concerning its platform:
Basically the RNC resolved to not adopt any new platform in 2020. So it's either the 2016 platform continues to be in effect, or the GOP is not a party with no platform.
The resolution was attached to the 2016 platform, so may be they mean for the 2016 platform to continue to be in effect. Of course, in the 2016 platform, the GOP has some rather awkward bits, like multitude of grievances against the "current administration."

And Biden’s speech mirrored if not plagiarized his 2008 speech. Yawn,

So, is Jerry Falwell, Jr. still speaking at the Republican National Convention? Or is he just gonna sit in the corner and watch?

People do bad things. At least most Republicans at the party level will admit that and censure them in some way. Democrats will either celebrate them or ignore the transgression. That's a generalization, but contains lot lot of truth.

Donald Trump did bad things (e.g., while campaigning for office paid Ms. Stormy Daniels to keep silent regarding their extra marital affairs), the Republicans at the party level ignored the transgression and nominated him for the Presidency. This tells you your generalization is false. That “moral high ground” you think you are standing on is just a pile of excrement.

Nikki gave a very compelling speech.
I was hoping for Nikki 2020, but will settle for 2024 I guess.

I'm sorry, but I think you've confused my high ground with your body.
I'm just amazed anybody could stack shit that high.
