It was a speech about what we did, not about what they didn't do.

otherwise he would have made an excuse to skip the convention because of some family thing and been gone.

but now he is forever attached to trump and having endorsed him.

it will be like anytime mccain talks about someone being qualified for some office. the palin thing will always come to mind and he loses credibility.

dazed and confused by the brilliant speeches. Even the republicans

I think POTUS just wanted to give a better speech than FLOTUS.
