Ideas to spice up Republican convention?
Bob | Bob

Posted on 08/21/2020 9:56:34 PM PDT by bobk333

The Democrat convention was the most boring thing I have ever seen, but it’s hard to compete with the traditional conventions, with their thousands of rabid political supporters going nuts, making noise and having fun. But now, who wants to see the same people we see on cable news everyday giving televised speeches?

Trump will liven things up on his own, but does anyone have any other ideas on how to get more people to watch?

They need to have Clint Eastwood address an empty chair. I don’t know what the schtick would be. But it has to be Eastwood and an empty chair on stage.

- released prisoners
- any Democrat who defends police, but nobody showed up
- George Soros; the man behind the AGs who release criminals

Any other ideas?

The Democrats were all negative - all about how awful Trump is and how America is racistsexisthomophobicimperialist, etc. The Republicans need to point out how radical the Democrats are and the rioting, but there needs to be an overall positive message.

Some great ideas posted here.
The message has to be a positive American prosperity for all theme. America first to help Americans.

Some clever digs at the other side of course sprinkled in.

Remember when Reagan said it is not that liberals are ignorant, it is just that they know so much that isn’t so. Clever.

Before the convention a prime time commercial asking voters while the videos of rioting looting and burning in the background are rolling, is this what you want for your future and your families future, tune in and give us a chance to show you how its done, we already know how they will do it.

They could show artist renderings of President Trump’s proposed statuary park, after showing film of rioters tearing down statues of famous Americans in public parks, if he’s commissioned them yet.

(“They need to have Clint Eastwood address an empty chair. “)

Biden is an empty suit.

High school matching bands to open each night.

Likely too late to do that now, but that would have been cool.

Bring in immigrant legal citizens who fled Venezuela, Cuba and other socialist/commie hellholes and let them give some educational speeches to the dangers of ‘leftist revolutions’.

Start off each day with the arrest of Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Hillary, etc. Everyone will tune in to see what’s said about it.

Some talk stations are hosting convention watch parties. GOP should have camera’s at the parties and have small cheering crowds on screen watching live.

I love that young Nick Sandmann will be speaking. That will make liberal heads explode.

Giving a speech from one of those Trump flotillas would be a splendid idea!

It solves the social distancing and send a message about Trump’s awesome number of supporters.

No-— unfortunately Eastwood went (apparently) all-in for Bloomberg-— who is still financing the idiotic DNC platform and Biden/Karamel candidacy and Green new dump deal etc. all for his own portfolio as the little man that he has always been.

From Eastwoods waning career and needing pockets to support his ventures-— Bloomberg represents those kind of demonrats. It really is a shame— though he may come around and change his mind.
