Since Pat Buchanan’s speech at the RNC in 1992, I have awaited this election, prophesied its coming, and feel vindicated because this is the one where I think that the centripetal forces that have been putting strain on the GOP will finally tear it apart. Earlier in the year, I was gleefully saying my political Christmas present was coming and I was so looking forward to this convention. That was then, this is now. Seeing this has long since stopped being entertaining even in the “see, you lie down with dogs, you wake up with fleas” sense because the GOP did this to itself. Now it’s just uncomfortable, like watching someone who really thinks they can sing butcher the National Anthem and they have only gotten as far as ‘By the dawn’s early light…’ and you know there’s more to come because they can’t stop and everyone in the audience is antsy. It feels like that kind of awkward now.

I get that I'm really late to this but I finally watched the Michelle van Etten speech. Hooooooooooly poo poo. I haven't seen all of the speeches from this year's convention. Have any of the others been that bad? Because that was truly disaster-comedy levels bad. It seems like it was something out of Tim & Eric or Eric Andre, or just about anything on Adult Swim. I honestly think that was worse than Old Man Yells at Chair.

The RNC this year is like one of those arcade games where someone is bodyslammed throught the floor, and everyone keeps falling to new lows shattering bottom after bottom until they reach the basement.

What gets me is Trump promised a showbizzy convention like a "reality show." What we got was someone who probably would've been failed if she had to give that speech for a 6th grade writing assignment. It was truly astonishing. I can see public speaking teachers using that as a prime example of what not to do for, maybe, decades to come.

Bryter posted:Obama was so noble he didn't even prosecute war criminals, why can't you be like him Trump?? Every time I hear “lock her up” at the convention, I just cringe. When I think about Paul Manafort’s effort to help elect the pro-Putin Viktor Yanukovych in 2010, and they yelled “lock her up” in Ukraine, that’s exactly what they did. On trumped up political charges (ironically because she accepted, under duress, an unfair natural gas deal), Yanukovych threw former prime minister and his 2010 opponent, Yulia Tymoshenko, in prison. Politicians and presidents make serious ethical mistakes. Reagan/Bush 41 on Iran-Contra, Bush 43 on WMD intelligence/torture, Bill Clinton on perjury. But this? “Lock her up” might be the slogan of the 2016 GOP convention. It’s anything but conservative, anything but respect for the Constitution, anything but liberty. Wild. I almost wish Clinton would invite Tymoshenko to the DNC next week to show just what a threat Trumpismo presents. Maybe I’d expect this in Kiev, but America? It’s so tragic.

Donald Trump is the Mighty No. 9 of political campaigns. A more disastrous, plainly incompetent rollout I've not seen in years. If the RNCinCLE, or whatever the gently caress acronym salad it is, is supposed to show how great Trump is at managing even the basic theatrics of a campaign, it's hard to then extrapolate that to being competent enough to run the white house

To declare oneself alt right is to admit, tacitly or otherwise, that you have no social power.
