Over
The Republican Convention is over.
Isn't it?
Keerist, I hope so.
I dipped into it to watch the show. It was worse than I expected.
What I have no feel for is how much people are conned by this display of chutzpah and flaunting of the power of wealth.
The GOP is certainly back to its capitalist roots.
It says here that Trump's hour and a quarter speech (really) was disciplined and that he stayed on the script. Hateful and negative. Dark and dour. Pessimistic and fearful. But on the script.
And if that is the script then we are in deep shit. Or at least we are in for a very unpleasant time of it until the election.
I get the idea that some traditional Republicans are embarrassed by these events. Many have stayed away.
But they can't hide their heads for too long of they will really have lost their Party.
I wish I could be happy about that prospect but I am not.
I believe in a healthy two party system. We do not have that at the present time.
So now it is the Democrat's turn. We shall see how they manage their show.
Their is certainly a uniting force now. Defeat Trump.
