Title: RNC Convention
Post by: Number7 on July 19, 2024, 08:00:53 AM
Loved the energy, organization, theme, and atmosphere.

Noticed hunter biden’s business partners supporting President Trump instead of the big guy.

Thought the President’s granddaughter stole the show, and loved seeing the little grandchildren on his lap while Eric spoke.

Agreed, Kai was utterly charming and Trump with the grandchildren as well as loyal children proved his humanity. The whole thing showed how beloved he is.

Showing his humanity is dangerous, per Caryn Elaine Johnson.

Good group to leave off the invitation list.

GWB and Laura are hilary fan girls, and announced along with lying lizzy cheney that they were voting for biden.

Too bad cocaine mitch didn’t stay home. The guy is a freaking fossil these days.
I guess he couldn’t pass up one more chance at getting applause.

The democrats are going into a tizzy saying that Trump promised unity but then went on the attack.  I must have watched a different acceptance speech.  It was full of ideas and hope and promise for the future.  He didn't demonize half the population as deplorables and racists and hicks.  But he did call out the worst of the worst individuals for how they are destroying the country.  Like Drunk Nancy, etc.  That IS unity calling out the scum people who are truly destroying us coming together as a nation.

The attacks are all the communist have. 

They can't run on the economy, the border, healthcare, foreign policy or any policies that directly affect everyday Americans.  They have nothing.

So it's identity politics and racism, 24/7.  It's also outright lies and deception.   That's all they have.  And people on both sides of the spectrum see it for what it is.   The low information types will of course fall for it.

I was most concerned about the number of promises he made that I'm not sure he can make happen.

FJB says that in the first 100 days of his next administration he's going to do all sorts of "good" stuff.  Shit.  There's 100 days until the election.  Why doesn't he do all that NOW?  The very definition of empty promises.

I agree.  Many of the promises require the cooperation of the Congress.  While we will most likely get control of both houses, the RINOs there can still stand in the way.  They are beholden to the deep state and are more interested in self enrichment than actually doing good for the country.

I also agree. The problem is that the damage Biden and the Dems have done has not peaked yet. The trajectory will have us in much worse shape well into Trump's term and HE will get the blame for it. Whatever policies he is able to implement on day 1 will not be able to reverse it immediately and will only slow down the spiral into the toilet. We don't even know if it can be stopped entirely. We have problems on multiple fronts that intersect; multiple wars on the horizon, several already hot, disastrous economic consequences of Biden's policies, an overblown stock market which could crash sending us into Great Depression 2.0, people being driven into poverty by soaring rent and real estate prices, inflation outpacing wages to the point people can't afford the basics, and to be honest I am not at all sure the average American has enough intelligence to understand the lag between policy and result, and won't believe the lies the media will tell that the problems are all Trump's fault.

Meanwhile much of our economy and military strength relies on overseas manufacturing, a dangerous predicament where we have given up our self sufficiency for the sake of globalism and cheaper goods (in both senses of the word "cheap"), a situation half a century in the making that cannot be quickly reversed. And if what happened Friday is any indication how vulnerable we are to complete shutdown of all systems because we stupidly have put everything that runs the country into a single interconnected internet "protected" by a software program (cloudstrike) that accesses and reads everything on all Windows machines, we have no idea how close we are to complete societal collapse. And that means access to food by the way.

I'm not sure even Trump understands how we are teetering on the edge of catastrophe. He made a lot of very hyperbolic promises but if disaster happens while he reigns, caused not by anything he did, he will take the blame for it. He could guard against that a bit by not promising so much unrealistically.

You have to start from somewhere.   The UniParty is a HUGE problem in that they will try to stop anything that goes against their agenda.  This is why down ballot voting is critical. 

Career politicians are destroying us.  They ALL must go.  We need new ideas, new leadership.  But the low information types vote on name recognition and that’s why these leeches (career politicians) stay in office for decades.

I remember a very wise person saying, “Reach for the stars. Heaven is just a little further.”

And this one.

If your reach cannot exceed your grasp, then what is Heaven for?

I love a President that is willing to put it all out there and do his level best to achieve it, rather than a lying communist, pedophile.

To the Dems, "unity" means toeing the current narrative.

Commercial construction here seems to have slowed down. Our county is one of the fastest growing in the country, subdivisions popping up all over. We've had a new Chevron station under construction for many months and many days we don't see anyone working on it.  Another building next to it is rumored to be a Dunkin and not much is going on with it. A new subdivision across the street has roads and utilities and seems to have ground to a halt. Just down the road a new storage facility is open but has only built one row of several.  A mile down the road a development company has a plan to build a small shopping center that would have an Ace Hardware and some other shops. It seems to have died before it's begun. Within five mile we have four or five totally empty distribution warehouses that were built and just sit empty.

Like last time, he will TRY to implement his agenda, succeeding with at least some of it. That's good enough for me.

And "compromise" means going along with everything they want.
