I swear, Walker has less hair every time I see him.
Priebus as well.

It looks like Donald Trump has just officially won a majority of delegates.

This maybe a silly question, but what if Donald Trump says "Mr. Chairman, delegates. I decline your nomination for President of the United States" during his acceptance speech and just walks of the stage. What would happen? Tongue

I wouldn't put it past him, tbh. I hope he does. His candidacy is a toxic blend of cultural revanchism and anti-intellectualism, and if he wants to avoid inflicting this on us for another four months then I will appreciate that.

"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.

No, but there are probably some senior Republicans looking for some substances right now to help them get through this. LSD, methamphetamine, bath salts, potassium cyanide...

Most disastrous convention for any party since the Democrats in 1968

Eric just gave a beautiful speech.

And precisely no one will be talking about it tomorrow. We have the defining moment of the convention, barring Trump saying something unprecedentedly crazy even by his standards tomorrow night.

Oh that is a glorious image. First time since Iowa that someone has put a hole in his massive ego, and it shows.
