The 2020 Republican National Convention: There will be blood. And soil.

[clovis8]

There is legit more black people in this convention than in the DNC one.

I don’t get the strategy at all.

[Chippa58]

They never give an inch of compromise. They expect people to just totally flip to their point of view.

@clovis8

Do they really think they are winning black voters.

The rubes do, the sharps goal is to say the Dems are the racists.

[NotBruceZ]

Jeff Van Drew explicitly for American exceptionalism.

It makes Republicans feel better about having racist views.

I tried watching Tucker and I just couldn’t do it.

That guy deserves the worst fate possible for a human being, whatever that is. The English language is totally inadequate in describing him.

[NotBruceZ]

LOL, the Squad took over the House.

[NotBruceZ]

C-SPAN.

BTW, Jeff Van Drew is in a tight race with Amy Kennedy.

I hope the Rs accusing the Ds of being socialists all night is imparting some wisdom about the short term prospects for leftism.

@simplicitus

Not so much a prediction, but Stephen Miller has likely tried multiple times to get in a paragraph supporting Kyle Rittenhouse, while the political folks have taken it out. The compromise will be vague language thanking “brave citizens standing up for law and order.”

Trump will then ad lib something like, “and we know who we mean, right?” or “We love our Second Amendment, don’t we?”

@clovis8

I’m sooooooooooooooooo confused by the night after night “we love black people” angle.

Sure stick it libs a night or maybe two but who is this for?

Do they really think they are winning black voters.

They may peel off like 1% or something, but it’s a terrible use of their time and resources. Glad they’re trying it, even though it triggers the fuck out of me. I guess maybe they just want to give their supporters something to point to so they can say, “SEE??? NOT RACIST!”

I hope the Rs accusing Joe Biden of being a huge socialist all week is imparting some wisdom about running a moderate so we don’t get accused of being socialists. I’m old enough to remember when some of us told everyone they’d call the nominee a huge socialist no matter who won - even Bloomberg.

[clovis8]

Wtf!

I feel like I’m in twilight zone.

are they kidnapping these black ladies?

[Coasterbrad]

They are not trying to appeal to black voters. They are trying to appeal to white voters who want to vote Republican without feeling like that makes them a racist.

[NotBruceZ]

Stacia Brightmon’s job is to mention Ivanka’s job creation.

[iron81]

My other centrist hot take is the window dressing should draw some heat off the DemE for adopting popular parts of the other side’s platform.

They are not trying to appeal to black voters. They are trying to appeal to white voters who want to vote Republican without feeling like that makes them a racist.

Yep. I’m genuinely amazed they found this many black people who are not only Trump supporters, but willing to go on national TV and say so.

This is definitely a hostage video
