OK, who wants to start a pool on how the Trump Campaign will screw up the convention today?

More stupid statements that the press and the Democrats (but I repeat myself) can use to belittle Republicans and Conservatives?

More angering the base?

More plagiarism?

Place your bets now!

The word on Morning Joe is that Trump said only a top staffer would be assigned to Melania for her speech, so it's likely Manafort put his top guy on it.

That's why Manafort is trying to blow this off as somehow coming from Hillary (an insult to the intelligence of anybody listening to him). 

He knows he's going to have to whack one of his guys.

Trump's name is placed in nomination at 5:30 EST today followed by a roll call of states.  That's the next opening for #DumpTrump.

Posted on the other thread too: On the citizens for trump page, the spin they are going with is she was honoring Michelle and other first ladies by incorporating their themes. Not kidding.

Key words will be honoring and inspiration.

That reason (excuse) sounds very Democrat-like to me.  Odd coincidence?

@sinkspur FYI:  The "Official" Thread has posted their hamfisted rules again to keep their echo chamber a safe space.

LIVE THREAD RULES REMINDER

I would like everyone to be respectful here of members and the convention speakers
Discuss what is going on.
No going off topic to bash Trump, or argue. There are plenty of other places to on the forum you can do that.
No snarky remarks, or hit and run posting bombs.

To Trump supporters: Same for you only reversed.
Do not coax the nevers to an argument. These are live convention threads.

Any post that does not comply on either side, will be deleted without warning  :beer:

Thanks!

Obama had Greek columns on the stage at The Invesco Field.  Not to be outdone,  Trump plans a night of Flaming Gold Candelabra's and show tunes sung by Capt Kirk.

One must wonder why!

Justin Ashash pointed out that its like a voice vote in congress. Its done to hide a lack of support or provide cover for those who do support but don't want their names attached. He also points out that the rule has always been 7 states.

What the GOP did with the help of Team Trump yesterday was give the unaccountable RNC full control. Exactly the opposite of what Trump claims to be about.

If the delegates don't cause a disruption on a daily basis for being utterly ignored, they have failed us all.

I need to hear that they won't stop chanting "roll call vote" over the speakers for hours on end.

How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

They should refuse to let anything happen till they get a roll call vote on every single rule.
