I love it how Johnson still thinks the Patriot Act as written in 2001 is still popular.

Chris Christie shouldn't be the one screaming about an indictment considering his shady past.

Wasn't tonight supposed to be about the economy and jobs?

So they are currently showing a nearly empty arena in Network Primetime.

To the native Americans here:

What exactly does the phrase "Trump digs coal" really mean ?
He likes and supports coal and coal mining jobs.

I really don't know why on the night that was supposed to be about jobs, the economy, and work that they didn't have a group of coal miners speak. That seems like a big miss to me.

My sense is that the Trump campaign is more interested in tracking with what will play best, rather than stay locked on a consistent schedule. It seems they concluded that the negative speeches against Hillary would work better for them than the original pro-jobs message. They left a few of the original message speeches in, but those seemed to be from speakers who were non-politicians who only fit that message. They also get a bit of both worlds this way as casual observers might read there was an evening about jobs, but would hear the attack message.

I agree, its just you could have done both with coal miners.

I despise Cruz with a passion, but that was the best and most coherent speech of the convention so far. Smartest man in the GOP by a mile. Also, dude has balls.

Expect to hear the "vote your conscience" line repeated a lot at the DNC next week and maybe even in an Clinton ad down the line.

CNN is reporting that Tony Perkins and Sheriff Joe Arapio are speaking tonight.

They are really trying to turn away as many hispanics and educated whites as possible, aren't they?

Dana Bash is claiming that this guy is handing out "Never Trump" buttons on the RNC floor?

Is that safe? That doesn't sound like a safe thing to do.

She isn't the best of sources though.....

There is a picture of proof.
