I don’t know why any people here watch that horror show. Maybe for laughs and some tuned in to see riots.

It was a freak show.

Anybody catch the “wolf pack” lady—Lt. Gov. of MN?

How about the Pali crazy who rushed on stage for an anti-semitic rant before they got escorted off the stage?

“Wolf Pack” lady video is in this link:

Umm… the RNC convention didn’t go over 10pm deadline…

Nice way to cook the books.

Comedy shows are a big draw these days. The more woke the better.

I didn’t talk to anyone that watched it either.
It is always a fact that the media has to claim the RATs win.

No matter what.

Because Republicans are at work and don’t have time to watch TV.

I watched parts, mainly to detect themes and for the train wreck.

I suspect a lot of conservatives watched for similar reasons.

Leftists did not watch a second of the RNC. They cannot handle cognitive dissonance.

People just have to look...It’s like driving by a fatal collision, with legs and heads ripped off bodies and others on fire running around the wreckage.

It’s a common phenomena in America.

I’d first like to know how widespread in media, the DNC convention was offered. My guess is every major venue had it while probably likely not all had the RNC convention televised.

54% was GOP watching the sh*t show and recording it to use as campaign fodder.

Democrats have higher % of unemployed than Republicans. So they watch more TV.
