Some more speakers listed. Gym made the cut for the team.

Here's some of the article:
 

  Quote

 

The four-day event is themed “Honoring the Great American Story,” according to four Trump campaign officials involved with the planning process but not authorized to discuss it by name. The convention will feature prominently a number of well-known Trump supporters, including members of the Trump family, but also those whom the GOP say are members of the “silent majority” of Americans who have been aided by Trump’s policies. Some have been “silenced” by a “cancel culture” pushed by Democrats, the campaign officials said.

Where Democrats highlighted Republicans who crossed party lines to back Biden as an indictment of Trump’s leadership, the GOP lineup will primarily feature figures on the conservative media circuit with the hope that they can deliver red meat for the president’s loyal supporters — though planners say they will feature some people who did not vote for Trump in 2016.

Planners insist they will put forward a more “positive” convention than Democrats’ roasting of Trump. Yet the president also appears intent on trying to seize on the nation’s cultural divides, particularly around issues of racial injustice and policing, drawing on grievances to motivate his base.

Noticed that they aren't doing the roll call the same way the DNC had. While it was a foregone conclusion as to the outcome, it was probably going to be so white that the difference would have been stark.

I think it’s no coincidence that two hurricanes will be barreling toward the gulf coast during the RNC next week.

 

i guess it will give trump an excuse if the ratings suck. Of course, he will blame it on the democrats somehow too. Anyone who believes this guy has a very low IQ.

I can’t believe Nikki Haley is going to get within 100 miles of this shit. Doesn’t she have presidential aspirations? She’s about to step in some dog shit that isn’t going to wash off.

Yeah you can’t forget that the “mastermind” behind the watergate break in, G Gordon Liddy, got himself a pretty good following and a nationally syndicated radio show after serving his time. Republicans will support anyone who proves they’d do anything for the team. They’ll support her too because she was willing to suck Don’s dick as their surrogate. 
 

What I don’t get is how any of them think they’d ever get elected in a nationwide race again with the demographics being what they are and the Don’s version of the party being so toxic to non-cult members. Either they are dumber than you think they are or they know something we don’t. The outcome in November will tell us which one I think.

Haley is toeing the line to keep herself in the spotlight but not getting too close to trump for the inevitable blowback. And most of the gop will ultimately conveniently look the other way for anyone that associated with Trump. What other choice do they have when 95% embraced him? Political reality of the future situation.

Twitter is pissed. Ivanka Trump is listed as The Honorable Ivanka Trump on the speaker list. I don't know if the tweeter is correct; while the term is usually reserved for elected officials, can't it also be used for appointed?

Probably because Trump wishes he was able to get on her.

Technically on the G-card rankings, she is a high ranking senior advisor so the stretch to call her “the honorable” is one of the smaller liberties the convention is taking.  
 

plus when pres Trump said “honorable”, he meant he’d like to be “able” to find someway to “honor” her tits.

Why exactly is she a high ranking senior advisor? Advisor on what subject? (feel free to supply whatever subject your Surly hearts desire because I can think of no actual domestic or foreign policy in which she is qualified)

This one ^^^^ of which I have clipped a section from. It sounds a little fascisty and burn it all down so we can haz the cake and it eat it too. Or is it just me?

the WHEREAS, Issues exist across all 435 existing government agencies and the nation’s entire regulatory framework, and empowerment of regulators, must be overhauled; and

WHEREAS, President Trump and his Administration cannot execute this reform alone; reforming regulatory bloat will require Republican majorities in the House and Senate,and a strict Constitutionalist Supreme Court; therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the United States economy struggles only when its entrepreneurial spirit is crushed under the weight of federal restrictions,and reductions of the regulatory state are needed to unleash our nation’s boundless potential;

RESOLVED, That entrenched regulatory bureaucrats selectively interpret rules to expand their power over the regulated, and, when left unchecked,the federal regulatory burden is ever-increasing; and

RESOLVED,That the Republican National Committee and its ancillary groups advocate a complete overhaul of the Administrative Procedure Act of 1946 so that President Trump can thoroughly "drain the swamp," and acknowledge that Republican control of the House and Senate,as well as additional appointments to the United States Supreme Court are needed to achieve this goal.

Someone needs to drop a Q message that Trump has been replaced by a Deep State clone and his words cannot be trusted. He's promoting 5G!

There is some weird stuff happening in this picture. Palin appears to be taking an oath while Trump holds up the pizza like a flag. Swearing fealty to a pedo ring?

That picture behind Trump looks like an older dude is mounting a younger dude. Who is the minor in the photo and why are they facing the gay porn poster behind Trump? The paper plate says "Family Pizza". Hmmm... Notice how the parmesan cheese is pushed up to the "diet" Pepsi?

This is absolutely unbelievable. This can’t be true? No policies. No platform. Bizarro.

Expand  

There is no GOP.  Only Trump.

This is exactly what a cult looks like.  Not a little bit....EXACTLY.

As for those "50 points".....between the pointless platitudes, the repetition of promises he's made since he was campaigning in 2016 and has done literally NOTHING to fulfill ("cover all preexisting conditions!"), those that are impossible for decades (occupy the moon and Mars!), those that are meaningless ("create 10 million jobs!"....cool....how?), and those that are just plain fucking stupid ("teach American exceptionalism!").....it's a perfectly Trumpy platform.

This is what you are, GOP.  You literally don't have any platform other than "what that fucking pyschopath over there says!"  If there was any question whether the GOP remained a political party, that question is answered definitively today.  It has no platform other than "what Trump says."  Trump will speak every night of its "convention."  Half the speakers at that "convention" are Trump's family.  The GOP is now just a cult, supporting a family criminal enterprise.  What a fucking shitshow.

I'd like a slice of Lisa Ann.  Still gorgeous at age 48.  Gotta give credit to Palin though, she's 8 years and is probably in better shape athletically.  

Fun fact, Lisa Ann grew up near Biden's boyhood home.  But only one candidate in this election tried to fuck her.  

Speaking of the Palins and pornstars, on another thread we were discussing C-list celebrities that live in Austin (Mia Khalifa being one).  Doesn't one of the Palin daughters live in Austin now?

"Teach American Exceptionalism"

Guess that's a prerequisite for "Failing to Demonstrate American Exceptionalism"

Expand  

It's code for "Teach the history of White People." I was hoping they might have a another bullet point that was "Teach capitalization and other grammar rules," because the agenda writer had trouble deciding on the United States vs. The United States among other things. I believe I am ready to run for office. There is Rule Of Law, but most importantly there is Rule Of Grammar. My campaign slogan will be "The More You Know," and I hope LeVar Burton will approve.

Anyone care to guess how much Adderall will be consumed in the next four days? Should we have a pupil watch? His twitches have been less noticeable so his prescription may have changed.

I am definitely NOT listening to the RNC shit show, however I turned on my truck & the radio was already tuned to NPR. Heard Trump say "...These Democrate governors - with the ballots - 85 million? They are going to send out ballots to who? Maybe they won't send them to registered Republicans."

[turned the channel]

1. YES, he did say "Democrate". "Dem.Oh.Crate."

2. Does he not know it is an agency like the Secretary of State that handles these things so as to keep a bit of firewall between the Governor & prevent interference? Of COURSE he doesn't know this. This is a buffoon that barely understands the US Constitution.

It does sound like "SpyGate", but Trump's pause and the reactions from the crowd make it seem like something more derogatory. Trump wouldn't say "let's be nice" if he heard someone yell out "SpyGate".
