Bravenak's Republican National KKKonvention live blog

This is an open thread to share our thoughts on the KKKonvention going on this week. With Steve King going full on White Supremacist today, I'm sure we will see the sheets come off, the masks slip, and who knows what else they might come up with...

Please share your thoughts!
For those who do not have the stomach to deal with this KKKonvention, we will watch it for you and let your beautiful mind get a nice rest.

One thing I noticed, the stop Trump forces are butthurt that they got no play on the convention floor.
Trump's plane has arrived on the tarmac. Let's roll.

Mon Jul 18, 2016, 10:05 PM

So did he pick 1999 because that was the peak of wages? Let's see that would be oh I don't know the Tayland of the Clinton administration? It was all downhill from there I guess. Gee, who was in office after Bill Clinton? I can hardly remember... oh yeah that's right Dick Cheney was president. For eight years.

Logic tells me that if the point was that Obama has messed up the economy, Sessions would be saying how much lower wages are now than they were in 2008, when Bush left office. If the point was that both Bill Clinton and Obama messed up the economy, wouldn't you need to go back to 1992 when Bill Clinton took office?

At least from 10 PM onward. And, the whole Monday night lineup on PBS--which has been the only thing worth watching on Mondays. No double dose of "Antiques Roadshow" this week.

Is there anyway to spin this as anything remotely not pathetic, sad, and disturbing? Are they even trying? This is a total joke and nothing new.

He is screaming in anger, actually shouting Hillary wants to have "open borders" and let Syrian terrorists in.

Oh fuck, now they're playing Queen's "We are the Champions" as Trump comes out. Freddie Mercury is spinning in his grave. Trump keeps it mercifully short and introduces Melania after saying how "we're going to win big" about 5 times.

Now Melania is talking. Sounds like Zsa Zsa. Talks about her career in fashion in "Paris and Milan and New York." Now she's gushing about her "Dahhnold." Barf.

Now the talking heads on CNN are gushing about her.

Mon Jul 18, 2016, 11:05 PM

He goes on and on and on with nationalistic claptrap, then hits a pocket of Obama and Clinton hate, where the audience perks up enough to chant some feel-good slogan.

It's two-minutes of hate dressed in the guise of pro-America celebrations.

Really disgusting.
