Thanks, nikos.

The American Dream Party vs. The American Nightmare Party.

Such a massive difference between the two parties. As Don Jr. called them, “a never ending I hate America zoom call”.

Now, I’d read on FR last night that there was a rumor that the President would delay his speech due to Hurricane Laura. Has anyone heard differently?

I didn’t hear that. I think he should deliver the speech and announce that he’s going to Louisiana first thing tomorrow

The thing is, it may very well be Tennessee, especially the Memphis-area that ends up suffering the most from the storm.

Democrats are pushing him to delay it due to Laura.
That would be a mistake IMHO. Just like moving his Tulsa rally from Juneteenth was a mistake.

Never give an inch to these critics. We’ve had major political speeches given with a natural disaster occurring someplace in the country before.

I believe that was something that Kellyanne hinted at last night. POTUS is meeting with FEMA today and tonight the show will go on!

Trump speaking or not speaking is not going to have an effect on the unfortunate folks in the path of this thing either way.

Despite media propaganda the POTUS does not need to be in a bunker personally directing every aspect of emergency response.

Published 39 mins agoLast Update 22 mins ago

Amid questions over how Hurricane Laura’s devastating impact on the Gulf Coast would affect Thursday night’s final session of the Republican National Convention, the Trump campaign tells Fox News that President Trump’s acceptance speech “will happen as scheduled tonight.”

It hit probably the least populated area of the Gulf Coast, hardly devastating, compared to what it could have been.

In fact, I say, the worst damage from the storm will probably wind up being Tennessee and Kentucky from flooding.

There are actually 4 political parties in America.

1 The Democrat party

2 the National Socialist Democratic Workers party.
3 the National Socialist Republican Workers Party.

4 The Republican Party.

And

2. & 3. are actually the same

” Marxist in all but name “ subversives in collusion Party.

Doesn’t look too bad. Just the typical waterfront damage you would expect from any storm this size. If you build on the water this is park of the game.

And it mostly hit wetlands, where very few people live. Lake Charles did get hit hard, though, they’ve got a big clean-up job ahead.

“Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!”

Just anecdotal info: My Beau isn’t as Conservative as I am; I guess I would say that he’s one of those elusive Independents. You have to PROVE to him you’re worthy of his vote. I mean, otherwise, why would I bother, other than he’s handsome, smart, can fix anything, hunts and fishes, owns a lot of land and buys me guns and ammo? LOL!

Even HE was watching the RNC speeches last night, and he told me on his six hour drive back from our cabin that he listened to some of them yesterday, too!

He didn’t watch or listen to a single minute of the Dems Clown Show.

Happy, Happy! Winning! :)

Absolutely. Keep paying to rebuild storm after storm is insanity.

I read Kamala is to give a speech after POTUS gives his tonight.
