Have you given any thought to what a shit show Trump could turn the. 2024 Republican....

......Convention into? Can you imagine his nomination acceptance speech, complete with “Seig Heil” Nazi salutes? Fist fights on the convention floor? Proud boys in the streets, egged on by Roger Stone, just out to have a good time in their new brown shirts.

I'm not sure if I do or do not want to imagine it. But I am confident it will be a fecal stain on the fabric of our society.

Draped in American flags, wearing cowboy hats, cheering in unison to hateful speeches of "Only I can fix it."

Dutiful sycophants praising the demented leader as he spews his hatred towards all who are good, promising retribution, great losses to us all of our Civil and Constitutional rights as the ushering in of the New Dark Ages commences.

Time to hide those books that will be deemed subversive written by those who oppose him. As well as pocket copies of the US Constitution.

They are dumb, but even they are smart enough to know that that would cause instant chaos and certain defeat.

during the convention from Magats.

In general, the city is trying to create a supportive attitude as the Convention is important to future conventions of trade groups etc.

But this is one of America's most segregated cities, and having thousands of anit-DEI people here is going to create tension.
