Didn’t see it.  But I am sure you are correct about the content.  

She delivers a speech well.  

The main thing she was supposed to do was stir up the base — apparently she did.  

These are the usual talking points that would be used at this time.  Truth or prevalence is not the issue, rallying the base is key.  

I think they realize she is not the one to bring in supposed ‘undecideds’ or to swing votes from the other side.  They feel that will come from some of the other speakers.

Agreed. I'd add to the lack of empathy by stating the democratic governor run states are arresting business owners trying to reopen. Charging home owners for exercising their 2nd amendment rights against the mob. And Democrats in Congress continue to Exploit the coronavirus to hold up Aid to people the American while trying to bail out poorly run democrat states.

democrats really believe that if you are not one of them then you are stupid.   Any normal person can see the chaos in the streets which surprisingly are governed by democrats.  They are offered federal help but refuse.   Then blame trump for not doing anything.

The pros are making this worse.   They are needed to entertain.

Donald Trump just got the biggest betting odds convention bounce in history, and the convention just ended last night.

That follows the net 0 polling bounce for Joe Biden, which is the weakest for a Democratic convention since 1972.

I'm starting to get a whiff of 1988.

The Dems on this site have allowed themselves to be brainwashed mostly due to their hatred of Trump. Attempting to have conversations with them is like asking my dog not to chew on my socks. They look up and hear words, but mostly they just go on chewing socks. You called them stupid. I will not disagree.

Tweet from the UN: 

“The COVID19 pandemic is demonstrating what we all know: millennia of patriarchy have resulted in a male-dominated world with a male-dominated culture which damages everyone – women, men, girls & boys.”

Liberalism is a mental disorder

Reminds me of a Sowell quote 

“Have you heard anyone as incoherent as the people staging protests across this country? Taxpayers ought to be protesting against having their money spent to educate people who end up unable to say anything beyond repeating political catch phrases.”

Everyone should be balls deep in crypto for the next year. Not many people are. 

A year from now, everyone will be in crypto, this thread will be popping and I’ll be starting to exit positions.  

Market psychology is bananas.

The better bet is "Will the first debate be cancelled or postponed"?  I said "Yes" but no where you will find this bet.  an_speak

A black man approaches a cop car in LA and tries to execute 2 cops 

The 2 cops are shot and eventually taken to the ER 

“Protestors” show up to the ER, block the entrance, and shout things like “I hope you die”, “F the police”, etc 

Wow

Ricardo Munoz, the man in Lancaster, Pa. who was shot & killed by a cop yesterday after charging at him with a knife, was arrested last year for stabbing four people. His death sparked BLM-antifa rioting overnight.

BLM will riot and protest anything huh?

The media is so dishonest and bias to President Trump is unbelievable.  I am not just discovering this now.  It's just confirmed it.

I voted for President Obama twice and Hillary Clinton in 2016 and I do not see this kind of bias towards President Trump.

Luckily, I have a functioning brain that I can look up information and do research myself and not depend on the media for information.  If you are an average Joe you would be brainwashed by the fake and biased media.  Like I said before, China was correct about CNN back in 1989 when China does not allow CNN to broadcast the Tiananmen Square Protest because China was afraid CNN would pass on propaganda towards its own people.

I used to be very mad at China for not allowing CNN to broadcast about the protest.  And now I see why.  CNNan_cannon is not to be trusted again.

If a head coach of a football team is doing a great job and takes your team deep into the playoffs in the first year of coaching but did not win you a Super Bowl, would you fire that coach or ask to replace the coach? Or do you allow that coach to continue coaching and see what the coach can do in the second year?

Or even a CEO that turns around a failed company and makes it successful?  Should he or she be replaced?

Nancy Pelosi called the Middle East peace agreement a distraction yesterday. The first peace deal in over a quarter of a century and NP makes light of it like it's a joke while we can go to youtube and watch her be the first speaker of the house to ever tear up a president's speech in the history of the USA. 

The Democrats are a joke. People are watching and taking notice.
