More than 2,000 delegates packed the Quicken Loans Arena to rally behind Donald Trump and his campaign for president. Suspense built inside and outside the arena for Trump and his daughter Ivanka Trump's speech.

The crowd chanted "USA, USA" as Trump formally accepted the nomination and went on to say safety will be restored in America.

Head law enforcement officer in Cleveland identified the problem: “There are about 20 protestors and 80 journalists. The journalists and camera people are getting in the way.” There’s the circus ...the media!!

Yes, Trump is fighting for the GOP and for all Americans. Hopefully Cruz is packing to return to Canada.

LOL. No doubt there is a village in Alberta looking for its missing idiot.

What the Cruz die-hards can’t seem to grasp in their tiny craniums, even at this late stage, is that we have come down to a binary decision: Trump or Her Heinous.
It’s like trying to talk to an Irish setter about Korean art.

The lack of protesters is just bizarre. MY thinking is they think they don’t need actual protests any more. They can just astroturf whatever on social media and make their own reality.

The fact that the Republicans felt they had to put up a “proud” homosexual says a lot about the condition of things. How far the rot of liberalism has advanced. Don’t you think?

You seem to be under some sort of illusion that I’m a Cruz fan. Not so. I’ve been bragging on Trump for a while. I backed him over Cruz from the beginning. Sorry I offended anyone. I just hate to see any facet of liberalism worm it’s way into anything that’s supposed to be conservative.

I was looking around wondering if anyone was surprised at the song choices. Yikes. “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” and “All Right Now.” Terrible

PERHAPS THE MUSIC WAS AIMED AT THE ESTABLISHMENT? IF SO IT WAS GREAT

Nope. The fact you have your panties in a twist about a non issue like a flamer making a speech while we have Americans dead by the dozens due to Democrat policies says a lot about you.

“Well actually, I was talking about the whole convention and how they pandered to every liberal ideology.”

Sounds like you heard what you wanted to hear.

If you only look for the negative in things, don’t be surprised if that’s all you see.

Sure.
But Trump is trying to get support from blue-collar coal miners and steelworkers, homos, unhappy Berniebots, Democrat gun owners, people in the middle frightened by crime and a lot others who voted ‘rat in the past so he can win this fall.
It is imperative to keep Clintonout of the WH.
It doesn’t mean he’s going to be marching in gay pride parades.

If you get agitated, just lay back and think about strawberries, if that helps.

He is Race Bannon
Great cartoon circa mid 60s

Limited episodes sadly

And Race was essentially a toned down Steve Canyon

I went over to CNN and their “panel” is livid. Navarro says Trump is toast after that speech. Their prescription to get Trump elected is for the Republicans to support every liberal agenda. What a surprise...

“Can’t Always Get What You Want” may have been aimed at DefenestraTED.


Maybe aimed at all the Cruz supporters.

If he nominates to the supreme court only from the judges he has already picked out, he’ll do more for our nation than any president in our lifetime ever has. He’s in the process of disarming the msm. Im loading up on popcorn.
