CLEVELAND (AP) — It's Donald Trump's big moment to make his case to the country — and to the many rattled doubters in his own party. The most important speech of his presidential campaign will bring down the balloons on a convention marked by divided loyalties and unwanted distractions as well as full-throated roars against Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.

Trump has a big selling job to do and he’s auditioning before the American people.

On CNN they had an undecided voter group of independents and Republicans and not one of them indicated Mike Pence would get them to vote Trump.

Trump is going to have to tell the country why he wants to be President.

The stakes are high and his moment in the national limelight has finally arrived.

All the drama of the week will be forgotten after Trump makes his speech.

I think it's been a vigorous convention.

Have enjoyed the speakers, particularly Melania, entire Trump family, Newt, Christie, Pence.

Of course Ted was just being a sh** head.

He'll write in his own name in Novemeber. If he endorsed, he couldn't do it. And when it's over, he will be actually stupid enough to tell us "I voted for me".

It will be interesting if the “fart-in” does take place next week at the Dems convention. The whole place will stink up.

It’s kind of painful watching Trump speachifying, But I hope he pulls it all together and hits it out of the park.

With all the unwashed aging hippies, Patchouli doused Hipsters, lesbians, etc. how will anyone even notice any new smells from a fart-in?

Interesting, FoxNew’s group of UV’s mostly said this convention changed their mid to vote for Trump. I guess you can’t trust anything the media puts out there.

CNN Focus Group??? You are paying attention to that garbage? I wish someone would make a montage of all the ‘independent’ CNN focus groups over the years. Its laughable!

Drama = viewers. I would like to see the viewership of the RNC vs the DNC when this is over.

Very true. Hard to believe how the media latches on stupid issues, such as the Melania Trump speech.

I got to thinking, how many are going to be in the voting booth on Nov. 8th, and think back, how terrible about Melania’s speech, and that will make them vote for Hillary instead??? Really, the media blows so many things out of proportion.

The idea for a fart-came from those Bernie Sanders supporters who were dumped by him when he decided to endorse Hillary that they would eat a lot of beans and go smell up the place. But then again, the place will stink up anyways from the farting, the aging hippies, the pot smokers, etc.

Trump’s job now is to make a deal with the people of America. Can he do it? He’s proven he can make a deal with millions of Republican voters. We shouldn’t put it past him. He plays to win.

You say: "Trump is going to have to tell the country why he wants to be President."

Really?

YOu didn't watch much of the convention? YOu didn't hear his sons speak? You haven't been listening to Trump?

If you don't know yet - YOUR fault, not his ;)
