It is surprising McConnell and Ryan are speaking considering everything Trump stands for is anti-them.

Its important to note when kwark says "western investment" its not just the united states and europe that are in the game but Taiwan, japan and South Korea have large investments in China. Thats where china started kicking in the restrictions.

Not everyone gets to be or is supposed to be a headliner. It's not your "rank" in government that puts you there. And the Bush presidents skipped 2012 as well. Your childish attitude would be like looking at the huge list of 2012 speakers, isolating the guy from Bain Capital, and going "this is a joke."

So it's your position that the speaker list is figuratively the same as it was in 2012?

and thats a strawman and a shitty one at that. that one dude from bain capital was the presidential nominee.

joke aside, and it's fine to have one or two of "your guys" speak as kind of a testament to your character or whatever. making it the trump show is ridiculous. are you seriously going to compare tiffany trump, best known for her posts as part of the rich kids of instagram to a successful businessman?

Not talking about Romney, bub.

That was an analogy, not a strawman.

The whole point of the convention is the nomination of your candidate for president - the Trump Show. He's got lots of adult children. Why shouldn't they speak? Tiffany isn't less eloquent than an 82 year old talking to an empty chair, have you seen her in the town hall with his whole family or is this just about you being upset with having to see people blow past you on instagram?

I think more money has been spent on the anti trump show from Hillary compared to the trump show. Do any of the speakers have an effect on swaying voters?

Having Tiffany speak is probably to connect with younger voters?

In general, convention speakers aren't for swaying voters, they're for energizing the base.
It seems to me a reasonable selection of speakers.

He said hes going to bring in "extreme vetting" 3 times in the span 10 words.

I recognize the three or four republican speakers for the Republican Convention who are basically forced to be there. Who is everyone else?

He obviously edited that post after I quoted it, which you could verify yourself by looking at the timestamps.
