Pence jumped on the Trump grenade - he's currently popular with the GOP.

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

CNN is really harping on the fact that Trump's foreign policy interview earlier today completely contradicts everything Pence just said. Its policy and "lol nothing matters" and the Cruz thing is a way better headline for tomorrow, but CNN is obviously going to keep on this attack as well and force more of those awkward Trump Campaign "so what's your policy?" questions they hate.

Everyday of this convention provides more evidence to both the "Trump is a Clinton plant" and "Trump campaign is being run by Russian plants" hypotheses.

Gotta dig into the Clinton Foundation stuff to see if these two theories can be combined.

It would be fascinating if Trump was a Russian plant and Hillary exposed classified information to security risks in exchange for donations to the Clinton Foundation, making her future win-win. It's good to have security!

Ted Cruz literally betrayed Donald Trump on live television at the Republican National Convention.

This is almost as good as a contested convention. The Republican party is a flaming corpse.

I like Trump's slew of insecure tweets right after Cruz's speech. So transparent. This guy didn't have a childhood and has father issues or something.

I think you'll find that when Trump goes down, there will be very few people who will admit to being that base.

Just because I like saying it, Bork was a craven toady who was the first to cave to Nixon's demand for a hatchetman for the Saturday Night Massacre. The final event that made a super-majority of the US Congress willing to impeach and convict a sitting President of the United States. And they have the gall to say that his credentials to sit on the Supreme Court of the United States should not be questioned.

Also, it is pretty impressive that Zodiac Killer made himself more loathed than even Donald Trump.

Uyghurs situation in Xinjiang? Just a police action, do not fret. Not ongoing genocide like in EVIL Canada.

ahahahahaa no waaaaaaaaaay

Ted Cruz is bad in oh so many ways but good on him for not bending the knee, I can grudgingly respect the littlefinger who would rather burn it all down than let the guy who humiliated own him.

This effectively kills his political career though doesn't it? He'll only have the narrowest, fringiest evangelicals on his side now.

Also, a thought; if Herman Cain had given his Pokémon speech after Go came out, I think he might've won.
