It’s kind of amazing. The Democratic Party has at its disposal pretty much all of the talent in Hollywood and yet their boring infomercial of a national convention makes watching tomatoes turn red look like the Super Bowl. Calling it boring is an insult to boring people who can at least be calm and soothing. The DNC is just flat out unwatchable. I’ve been wondering why, and I think I figured it out.
Among the myriad jobs I had in my 20 years doing theater, one of my favorites was being a stage manager. It’s a great job. I wrote a joke about it once. How many stage managers does it take to screw in a light bulb? One. Said with deadly seriousness. It is the stage manager who makes everything happen when it is supposed to happen. A live event is fraught with potential mishaps. The stage manager gives everyone five and makes sure the lights come up. The problem with the DNC? They made it a movie when a convention needs to be a theater production.
So here is a little free advice for the Republicans. First of all, in the name of all that is good and holy, there needs to be some kind of audience. I don’t care if it’s 10 people sitting in a Dairy Queen parking lot, we need to see actual people reacting to speeches and nominations in real time. I get it, Democrats are dedicated to the idea that we all have to live in hermetically sealed households with masks on until Trump is defeated. The GOP must send the opposite message.
Feature the fan base.

“ Viewership for the Dem convention is way down cause Biden and Harris have little to offer. Not too many care for what the Dems are selling.”
**********
I’ve made it a point to not watch a single second of the Dem convention. I want their ratings to be in the toilet where they belong.
Conventions are a stupid waste of time.
true, no matter what Trump does, the FakeNewsMSM will parrot their chosen negative script, as they always do.
never mind.
yes, it is important there is a live audience, representatives of each group that is supporting Trump. women for Trump. blacks for Trump. police for Trump. bikies for Trump. whatever.
if it were possible, i’d have it one night only, with the likes of Kristi Noem, Jim Jordan, Kim Clacik etc etc...and no RINOS.
just my initial thoughts.
and HCQ+ doctors for Trump, of course.
I heard Biden’s speech is pre taped. It will be “prefect” and “boring”.
bump
I hope Trump has a big director’s role in this TV event.
I hope he has Candace Owens and Larry Elder speak.
I hope he has some real Christian men of God speak.
I hope he has patriot American Hispanics speak.
I hope he has Jeanne Mancini (March for Life) speak.
yes, Candace, Larry and Leo Terrell.
That would still drive the Covidiots crazy. I’d like something outdoors. Could be some great evening energy.
It needs to rock but you can be assured that the fake media will tell us how boring it is and how many lies Trump told.
There will be ZERO positive reporting. Just watch.
There is something I’d like to see as “film”. A compilation of Democrats rioting, looting and burning Democrat run cities and the injured cops (that they want to defund).
The Republican Convention needs to rock
*************
Republicans generally prefer to roll...over, that is.
They should televise one of those boat rallies in FL - a made-for-TV version. At the end, Trump and Melania cruise out in the biggest, baddest Yacht of them all!
And the thousands of boats sounding their horns!
Can't Touch This - Steven Stills and Billy Porter at the DNC
TRUE.- ONLY those persons who watch the RNC convention will know what was actually said.
90+% of what the “main-SLIME press” says about anybody/anything, who is NOT a leftist DUNCE, are LIES.
(The other ten percent is things like the weather report, sports scores, etc.)

You will note that I said that it would be boring UNLESS Biden goes “off script”.
(IF his speech is really “canned”, it will be just as worthless/brainless as the rest of the DIMs blather was.)
Yours, TMN78247
Oh definitely. I thought you thought he was going to go live. I sorta wish he would. That’d be hilarious!
