The media are more interested in what is going on outside of the convention than inside the convention.

Wish I had time to watch!

Moving in 2 weeks and so much to do. But I have to catch the Benghazi heroes, and I’d like to hear Melania too. Wonder when they start? Have to be at ice rink at 5 pm....

Is anyone on FR talking about the hit piece in the New Yorker on Trump by the cowriter of the Art of the Deal?? If true, it is a heavy blow, hitting him where he is great. I want people to tell me it isn’t true, that it’s just lib character attack.

“The election’s version of Sarah Palin. Hip, Smart, and good looking.”

My opinion since forever, too. But I didn’t realize she’s so short. If not for those five-inch heels, she’d be a midget.

Mark Simone addressed this story today on his show and he came to that conclusion.

I’m watching on RSBN. No commercials.

Ex Governor of Hawaii gave an outstanding speech!

The optics of this convention are the best we’ve ever had. The stage and layout altogether are the bomb.

Great job TRUMP!!

I agree. Fine, they can have parties, where candidates group themselves around a belief, but don’t make us JOIN them to vote. Let us vote for whom we wish. However, in CA here we have a runoff of two Dems for senator in the fall. Gotta accept that potential outcome.

I really hate when I read stereotypes like that. I am very heavy. I have no issues with other women being smart and beautiful. I can be disappointed in myself without trying to bring someone else down.

Thanks for saying that. It is really an article that could affect anyone if they read it somewhere (the subscribers wouldn’t vote trump anyway). It depicts the best things about Trump, his success and his deal making ability, as being fake or lies. It needs refuting by the Donald himself, but to do so, Donald has to castigate his cowriter. Or castrate him, whichever works... ;). If Donald can’t do it, it will make people wonder if it’s true. I didn’t like reading it myself. Maybe one of his sons can slam the guy, giving Donald a little cushion.

per Fox-—”under 1000 protesters”

some observations (by me):

-most well-dressed protesters I have ever seen

-well-equipped with professionally-designed T-shirts, banners, posters;bullhorns, flags, etc

-one would almost think some wealthy benefactor has paid for this “protest” / snarc
