Wait, so Trump isn't at the RNC tonight? Is this the norm? I would have thought that he would have attended the whole thing.


Nope. He left unexpectedly last night returning to New York which means he no showed today a group of fundraisers he was supposed to meet today.

He's apparently giving a live speech via satellite later tonight.

He wasn't at the convention for when he was nominated.....Amazing.

McConnell reminded me, so far he has stayed strong on SCOTUS. I am surprised. He gets +1 point for that.

If they want conservative votes, they should be hammering that angle.

Again, you can tell this is a 2020 speech. And I like Ryan, probably more than I should.

Good speech, would take over Trump.

Ryan is pretty impressive until you start to try to verify his statements. In the debate against Biden last time it was pretty clear he was lying through his teeth on a wide range of issues.

Chris Christie okay here we go. As a New Jerseyan, I'm already angry.

Ryan pushing for his program, almost no mention of Trump, he is going to pressure him pretty hard to adopt his platform for the election, especially against poverty to change the party image.

There has been report he was working at this in the party since he lost the primary.

at least 3 death stars. I doubt anything less will satisfy the idiots who don't remotely understand how powerful the US already is. There's a lot of lies told ot a lot of people.
Heh, I wonder, if no lies were allowed, would there be any speakers left?

I want to like Ryan, he's reasonable some of the time; and reasonably courteous. He's at least a candidate I could live with.
Great read: http://shorensteincenter.org/news-coverage-2016-general-election/ great book on democracy: http://press.princeton.edu/titles/10671.html zlefin is grumpier due to long term illness. Ignoring some users.

Is this how a Chris Christie courtroom works? The prosecutor makes his case, then there's no defense whatsoever, and then a thousand biased people all shout out Guilty?

The nominee never shows up before the third day to accept the nomination.
A wise man will say that he knows nothing. We're gona party like its 2752 Hail Dark Brandon
