Thank you, Hulk Hogan, for finding the courage to come out in full support of Trump. We need more celebrities to do likewise. Too many are and have been silent for far too long.

Somehow i feel like we’re back almost 40 years ago and Hogan is promoting his big match at WrestleMania.

Pretty good acting bluster for a 70 year old. And Terry Bollea was genuinely heartfelt. God bless him.
We need another Creed movie. This one with Sylvester Stallone and Hulk Hogan having a rematch between Rocky Balboa and Thunderlips.
I like it!

The kind of serious policy focus this country needs. Along with Kid Rock, Kanye West and Dana White, we are going to make America great again. When Hulk Hogan ripped his shirt, the rest of the world just knew we are serious.
Kimberly Guilfoyle for Secretary of State!
I loved wrestling in the 70s. Chief Jay Strongbow, Bruno Sammartino, Haystacks Calhoun, SD Jones, and so on.
And as I wrote elsewhere, I know we are not voting for a leader, but for the Frontman of America. https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4252332/posts?page=1111#1111
However….
Hulk Hogan at the RNC was misplaced and asinine. Seriously, which fence-sitting voting bloc did this @sshat secure?
Same with Kid Rock. Again, Kid has an attritide and is Deplorable in good standing. But, again, which bunch of centrists pondering Trump vs Bidet did his R-rated lyric fest secure?
Both were red meat performances. I get that. But this is a war. They should have been axed so that Trump could have started at a reasonable hour; Republicans generally work for a living and get up early.
And yeah, I’m a load of fun at parties.
WE ALL should be in HALF as good shape as HULK HOGAN.
We heard your stupid *ss on the live thread already. The 9 minutes that Hogan spoke really effected your sleep schedule. Nobody gives a ####!
Why did you call me a faggot in a private mail, rather than in the thread?
You NeverTrumpers sure got triggered this week after The Big Letdown on Saturday last.
WOW reminds me of someone whose nose is so high in the air if it rained you would drown!
Give it a rest Hulk was good, definitely not stuffed shirt!
He didn't want to expose your sexual proclivities?
I think it was darned decent of him.
Can you imagine the terror he could project at a negotiation with some foreign adversary?
He’s sure did stay big.
Kept at the weights and it shows.
Addiction has many forms, and I’ll take that anytime.
Not sure anyone under the age of 50 has any idea who Hulk Hogan even is but better the Hulk than Mitt, Mitch or Liz.
I got my sleep. I bagged half of Trump’s speech. The RNC let Hogan waste 9 minutes. For everyone who works for a living on the East Coast who would have preferred to hear from Trump vs a former entertainer, that choice was an unforced error.
I am perfectly fine with modernizing the Republican Party. It is time. It is not 1984, McCain and Romney are yesterday’s news, and we needn’t play Sinatra.
I’d have been cool with Alice Cooper or even Meshuggah. But this isn’t about me. Or even you. It’s about voters on the bubble. Kid Rock gains no incremental voters - his draw is already in the tank for Trump, but he potentially alienates religious folks who were put off by his lyrics.
Hulk Hogan appeals to GenXers who peaked in high school. Younger and Boomer voters will think he’s a buffoon (because he was). GenXers who sold their Hulk Hogan figurines on eBay 20 years ago are unimpressed or put off.
Those peaked adults…I have no idea in which voting bloc that lot sits. Maybe they did some polling that revealed those voters are centrists in PA, MI, WI, MN, GA, and AZ. At the same time, there a bunch of people who’d be swayed by Trump’s son but who are now in the “maybe I’ll stay home” camp because of Hogan.
The RNC made some terrible choices with their prime time free publicity. It’s so typical that Republicans can find a way to screw things up. Thankfully, Trump was Presidential and had the best speech of his life.
I’m glad I made a positive impression last night.
Now, onto victory.
