Melania was handcuffed to a briefcase with an open jewelry box in the frame.

Very symbolic if you ask me.

Maybe Trump was trusting her with codes that are inside the football... :smokin:

Got to defend WAC here.  He had serious and sincere reservations about Trump. 

Many are voting for Trump over the alternative.  After watching the convention last night, it was mostly awesome and it is easy not to want to be too critical.

What @WAC posted wasn't that of one voting "for Trump over the alternative.'

It was mockery of those who don't agree with her.

She's drunk the Kool-Aid in a very, very short amount of time.

Wow.  You got submerged in Kool-Aid fast!  From just a few weeks ago, pondering whether you should vote for Trump (yeah, right), to a full scale war against rational thought on this forum.

It's a miracle!!  You've been reborn, @WAC!  Hallelujah!!

(And tattling at the same time.  How cool is that??)

@musiclady

@WAC

Oh, you weren't around for our conversations about Trump in which she called him the Great Deceiver and said he would ruin the country if elected.  I suspect she's trying to drown out that knowledge with the fever of her newfound devotion.

I doubt it's happening, though.  Not deep down.

WAC is a guy who came from FR and helped me with the Cruz PA delegate thread during the primary.

Big Cruz supporter.  Would it be better if former Walker/Cruz supporters like me were 'Trump Realists'?  Sure.

Not going to begrudge converted Trump fans, especially during the convention.

Scuffle? Scuffle?

The delegates should storm the stage and refuse to leave until a roll call vote on rules is taken.

I bet there are a lot more of them than there are security.

The problem is....the delegates are probably not that well organized.  They need a leader to tell them what to do, I'm betting.  (just a guess)

Look - I'll say this one more time:

The delegates need to storm the stage. Bring up ALL the delegates who are demanding a roll call vote. Let themselves be seen. Make the GOP deny them to their faces.

Someone needs to grow a set of balls and lead a real grassroots revolution.

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!

I hope not.

But why the mockery of us?  Why not stay on the sheltered thread in her safe space?

Sorry. "Big Cruz supporters" converted to mocking Trump devotees are troublesome. 

It's not a reasoned process.  It's an emotional swing of great proportion.


(At any rate, it was an attempted thread-hijack by WAC, so I'm not going to post further on the subject).

That isn't the issue. Voting for Trump because you think he is the only way to beat Hillary is one thing. Spending your time berating and attacking and mocking conservatives and repeating lies from the Trump Side is another thing all together.

Will take a one term Trump presidency ( if he turns out to be that bad) over Hillary.

Mehmentum:  Trumps flaccid anti-establishment takeover of the GOP
The Republican Party has always been a conservative party during elections or when the specific issue was not in play – when the ball was dead – but they have been nothing more than a second liberal party when the rubber meets the road. Nothing has changed.  - See more at: https://www.conservativereview.com/commentary/2016/07/mehmentum-trumps-flaccid-antiestablishment-takeover-of-the-gop#sthash.eI9oEAtI.dpu

The GOP could avoid further Trouble with a simple roll call vote.

Good, they shouldn't.  If the RNC isn't following their own rules, then why should the delegates?  Chaos SHOULD ensue, IMO.  Something should be done.  Not just to stop Trump, either.  The absolute over reach of the RNC, to PUSH their will on the people, has to stop somewhere.  The representatives that are there to represent US, SHOULD do everything in their power, to exert their voice and be heard, IMO.
