Thanks for the Day 2 thread. We carry over 2,845 replies from the Day 1 thread and well on track for 10,000 replies by the time Trump gives his acceptance speech Thursday night. I’m sure it will be theatrical.

Like you, I gave up on the major networks early last night. Way too much chatter and cutting away from the prime time speeches so they could weave their own narrative.. C-SPAN is the place to be.

I was disappointed to see many leave the convention hall after Melania’s speech. I know it was a very long day for them but they owed it to the speakers to hear every word. Hopefully with the 5:30 start today we keep the seats full all night.

I would also not dwell on MSM trying to make a big deal of fact that Melania’s speech shared a paragraph or two with previous Firsr Lady speeches. It’s ginned up controversy. Of course they are going to grasp any straw to get us talking about anything else than the beat-down Crooked Hillary was dealt last night. Melania did a great job and look forward to hearing from the Trump children over next couple days.

Ditto. Karl Rove is on Fox News right now going on about how unfortunate this all is, etc. - as if it means ANYTHING or WAS anything to begin with.

Bottom line - Melania was gorgeous, graceful, personable and intelligent, and she didn’t steal THAT from anyone, so the entire anti-Trump destroy-America-first media can screw off.

I don’t blame them. I tuned out during Flynn’s speech as well. The night should have ended with Trump and Melania and whoever planned it otherwise really cocked it up.

Have to wholeheartedly agree with your comment, the speakers that followed deserved better.......
