Haley? The cancel culture girl? If she croaked I’d throw a party.

I real surprised she hasn't joined the Flakes. She must be pushing to an inside appointment in DJTs 2nd term, which would be a John Bolton-like mistake.

I hope the ratings include those of us watching via YouTube. I started out watching on Fox...but they kept interrupting the speeches to give commentary. Very annoying.

Thanks for sharing those stats. No wonder Donna Brazile became unhinged on Fox & Friends this morning falling into the 400 years of oppression rant.

She may as well have been on the front lines of a protest throwing her own version of a verbal Molotov cocktail

Did you even listen to her speech?
If you did with your brain engaged, you would have a different opinion. This speech was about winning votes for Trump, and Haley did a magnificent job. I don’t care about her political history. I am smart enough to worry only about Trump’s re-election at this time. So I wan’t act stupid and denigrate anyone who is helping Trump get re-elected. But I guess you have every right to act stupid.

A great thread earlier described Haley as “parsley”. She’s always on the plate and usually disgarded.

Brazile was unhinged because if Biden loses, her job prospects by the DNC go down the drain.

It was the same reason Dana Perino was unhinged on The Five show during primaries. She was counting on Jebbie hiring her again as WH spokesman.

I was watching, both the nomination of Donald J. Trump and Michael Pence for President and Vice President, and especially Kimberly Guilfoyle, who was even more than her usual fiery self, as she proclaimed their virtues that evening. The lady has moved a long ways from Gavin Newsom, to whom she was once married.

“”””Same here. I thought it was phenomenal. I did not plan on watching it much because I already know who I am voting for. It kept me glued to my set.”””””””””””

Ditto. I was moved by a number of these “nobodies”. Maximo Alvarez gave a phenomenal speech.

Also, Natalie Harp talked about how the Right To Try saved her life. That hits close to home.

This is the time to unite behind ANYONE who is trying to help Trump get re-elected. It is foolish to form a circular firing squad before the election. Trump need every vote and every person’s help.

I found it hard to listen to Kimberly Guilfoyle. Had to turn the volume down on that one.

I agree! She was a little over the top. Also Don Jr.’s eyes looked funny. Like he had been crying. I was wondering if it was allergies or he taped his speech right after his Uncle’s funeral. Seems like twittersphere thinks he has a cocaine problem.

I saw that. The look on Brian’s face was priceless.

The Hill via a thread posted recently:
“C-SPAN’s livestream of the first night of the Republican National Convention has attracted nearly 440,000 views, marking a substantial increase over the start of the Democratic National Convention, which drew 76,000 views.

“The numbers for Monday night come ahead of traditional TV ratings from Nielsen Media Research, which will be released on Tuesday afternoon.”

I watched on C-SPAN cable channel, not YouTube, and it aired completely through. No commentary unlike PBS where I first started.

ABC panned it. So it must have been good.

...were restricted by lack of internet service.

Urban people with phones have public Wi-Fi. The black discussion and social sites are well-utilized. They all know how to post a vid and they comment freely on their own sites.

Poor urban students have government-provided hot spots. They are also provided w/laptops and laptops and phones are freely available in all Districts. This is documented in the ISD budgets.

They are not really underserved. White rural residents face more restrictions on access and most use their phones for DSL. FIOS is available spottily. In my area, under population means DSL provides 90mbps. It’s actually better than the FIOS I had in my former rural area.
