C-Span ^

[Cboldt]

Luntz’s focus group really like Donald Trump Jr. Jr’s presentation makes them rethink Trump as something other than a caricature, gives Trump Sr. warmth. “A star is born.”

[lodi90]

Can CNN possibly get more people on their panel.

I think they are up to 9.

---

4 is plenty. Couple of Trump supporters and a couple Democrats. Putting the sore loser never Trumpers on the panel is blatant campaigning for Hillary by CNN

Alinsky doesn’t merely “acknowledge” Lucifer, he dedicates the damn book to Lucifer.

MSNBC: Chris Matthews”Talking about locking up your opponent—that’s banana republic right there!”

[SamAdams76]

I switched over to FoxNews from CSPAN after the speeches were over. They are now showing the Luntz focus group and they are absolutely bonkers over Don Trump Jr. I mean bonkers.

A star was born tonight.

It stands to reason that people don’t believe Ryan is being sincere in that call for unity.

Sorry, a great speech does not make a solid stand up man. He’s worse than a squish and I pray he loses his election.

Sad, but the man brought it on himself.

I believe a Sikh did the invocation this morning; a Mormon will give it tomorrow morning.

[Cboldt]

Donald Jr. was a secret weapon, now revealed.

[Tuxedo]

Don Jr was great - but Ivanka is coming up on Thursday and she is brilliant.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

I gotta hit the feathers!
Good night and God bless!
See you tomorrow night!

[SamAdams76]

Apparently Luntz had 19 undecided people in the focus group. 16 of the 19 are now considering supporting Trump after having seen his son speak tonight. Luntz himself said that this “never happens”

[Shortstop7]

I didn’t see that battle...just rewind. Sounds hilarious!

[bray]

He claims that Lucifer is the first liberal. Marxists don’t want you to know that and Ben spilled the beans.

[RKBA Democrat]

They should be bonkers. That was one of the best red meat political speeches I’ve ever seen.

A poster upthread nailed it: we just saw a conservative Bobby Kennedy.

[exit82]

Good night, my FRiend!

[CAluvdubya]

They are now showing the Luntz focus group and they are absolutely bonkers over Don Trump Jr. I mean bonkers.

Me too. To be fair, I heard him give a radio interview in Reno very early on and I was totally impressed back then. My "bonkers" isn't a new thang. :^)

[Cboldt]

All the kids ... it’s a real view into how the kids were reared, an unavoidable reflection of the parents, and “it’s all good.”

[nopardons]

LOL...love it! :-)

[TheNext]

Maybe Melania wrote Donald Jr’s speech

[ROCKLOBSTER]

I believe a Sikh did the invocation this morning

I do not have a problem with that.

a Mormon will give it tomorrow morning.

I, uh....well, Utah did promise Mr T. they'd deliver.
