Republican National Convention

Scott Baio has agreed to be a "celebrity" speaker at the convention. I will leave it to you all to discuss the significance. BB coach Bob Knight turned them down. Last time Clint Eastwood was weird, but at least he was Clint. Given the very mixed feelings about the Party and their frontrunner this could be a very weird convention.
The Dem convention in Chicago in 68 was a violent fiasco, but it was almost entirely about the war.
This one is "we don't like our candidate, but is it too late to do anything about it?" They don't seem to have any popular alternatives either.

Baio. Christ. They couldn't find another "celebrity" Trump supporter?
Yes, it will certainly be one for the books, but I was really hoping the "vote your conscience" movement was going to happen. It would have been a blood bath. I had visions of Ryan ending an introductory speech with "may the odds be ever in your favor." I already bought the popcorn in anticipation. Shame.

Also Cleveland Police are pushing for no concealed carry in the vicinity of the Convention. They said they don't care if it violates the constitution. I love how the constitution is used or abandoned depending on circumstances. What are those cold dead hands people going to do. Turn chicken, or defy whatever special temporary laws are created?

Pence is on point.
I like where he said I have son also a marine and goes on to mention when he heard Hilary say what difference does it make...she should never be allowed to be commander in chief. That game me chills. THAT and the part on drawing red lines then running, apologizing to our enemy's and turning our backs on our friends.

Pence? Really? He's also stated he had no problems with church and state getting really cozy with each other amongst other things. Far too right wing for my tastes.
