Will TRUMP punish the states that didn't vote for him? Seems like he'd do that.

If he wins the election, he'll probably sell the states that vote for Hillary to Canada.

"Alternative party" i.e. the party that says no all the time without proposing anything substantial.

You clearly haven't been paying attention then

I've been listening all day. I haven't heard anything of substance, because Donald Trump's campaign has no substance.

Even if you think Hillary is guilty of some wrongdoing, there's something very unsettling about a crowd screaming "lock her up." This is sickening.

Does anyone actually believe any of this crap?

Unfortunately, many, many people do. I agree that Christie's on fire. Well, his pants are, anyway.

Yeah, and my experience leading a classroom clearly demonstrates why I would make a great head surgeon! I'll make open-heart surgery great again! We have too many hospital insiders, we need a real outsider.

This definitely is the "BUT HILLARY" day, since I've heard nothing but fluff so far about why Trump is so great, or how he'll actually handle the presidency.

Political discourse is dead. It's all about empty platitudes and talking about how satanic and deserving of being thrown in jail the other side is. Truly a sad spectacle.

B.S.  Hillary Clinton has given at least one serious and  fairly detailed talk on her economic policy.  It was aired live by CNN but Rapist Trump gave his 'serious' speech about Hillary Clinton on the same day and wasn't covered.

This is just more tiresome false equivalence.  

I never said Hillary Clinton doesn't elaborate on her plans. You misunderstood me. I was talking about how empty this convention has been. It takes two to have discourse.

Rubio's "speech" will be an 85 second video message - MSNBC.

I'm impressed, I thought 25 seconds was all Rubio could handle.

Cruz won't endorse and will give a phenomenal speech. #DelegateRevolt #NewConservativeParty

It's a little late for a delegate revolt.

A walkout can still occur. Trump needs evangelicals more than we need him.

You've come to terms though with the fact that Trump is officially the nominee and that nothing can be done to change that?

Something can still be done and Cruz is the only person can do it. I will not accept Trump.

Even if Cruz does go rogue and starts a third party campaign, wouldn't that just ensure that Hillary wins?

Hey guys

Did you know that America deserves better?

No, I think I need to hear it another 15 times before it really sinks in.
