Donald John Trump accepted the Republican presidential nomination on Thursday night with an unusually vehement appeal to Americans who feel that their country is spiraling out of control and yearn for a leader who will take aggressive, even extreme, actions to protect them.
Mr. Trump, 70, a New York real estate developer and reality television star who leveraged his fame and forceful persona to become the rare political outsider to lead the ticket of a major party, drew exuberant cheers from Republican convention delegates as he strode onto the stage of the Quicken Loans Arena and delivered a speech as fiery as his candidacy.
With dark imagery and an almost angry tone, Mr. Trump portrayed the United States as a diminished and even humiliated nation, and offered himself as an all-powerful savior who could resurrect the countrys standing in the eyes of both enemies and law-abiding Americans.

But his speech - the longest, at an hour and 15 minutes, since at least 1972 - had relatively little new to offer women, Hispanics, blacks and others who have been turned off by Mr. Trump's incendiary brand of politics. He did sound like a different sort of Republican at times, though, making no mention of abortion - a core issue for many Republicans - and saying of his support among evangelical voters, "I'm not sure I totally deserve it."

The Trumpster gored the Slimes' ox real bad with his acceptance speech ... as reflected in their latest screed!
I’m trying to figure out which bad guy came up with the “dark” talking point meme: soreass, hildebeast, or homobama.
It’s a JournOList collusion thing.
These people are ridiculous. “Dark tone”. Pffft!
Agreed!
Yeah, those pukes work like the borg: no one will take individual credit for coming up with what they believe is a good meme. All that really matters to them is the growth and health of the collective.
Haaaa .. wait'll next week when the Witch speaks !!!

Nonsense. Trump reached out to blacks, hispanics, and woman to say that they too are American's .. that they too are part of the American Dream. It's astonishing in this day and age of almost universal access to information that the established media *still* think that they can dictate the narrative.

The churnalists are all on message tonight.
Don’t they get even a little bit embarrassed at being puppets?
Yes, the MSM now has it’s own talking points.
The low info voters do not read them. So just who are they writing for? No one that matters. We need to ignore them. This is their death rattle.
Darth Trump!
His tone is more amber.
Doesn’t it embarrass them to all say the same thing?
Wow, they are terrified like never before.
I like it!
GoTrump! , kill the witch and her flying monkeys ...
If the speech were so dark, why was everyone cheering, jumping up and down, and laughing?
You will see venom and bile heaped upon Trump like we have never seen from the MSM. Politicians like him CAN’T be allowed to succeed.
Change "speaks" to "screeches" or "cackles" and you'll be right on the mark!
“His tone is more amber.”
Travis Maghee might say his tone is darker than amber....... :/
