The Republican National Convention kicks off Monday. It is expected to be a much more positive event than the convention produced by the Democrats last week, which as expected was largely focused on their deranged hatred of President Trump.

Quote:
Trump’s vision of American greatness at center of convention

Planners insist they will put forward a more “positive” convention than Democrats’ roasting of Trump. Yet the president also appears intent on trying to seize on the nation’s cultural divides, particularly around issues of racial injustice and policing, drawing on grievances to motivate his base.
The agenda for the Republicans this next week will have a central theme for the entire convention and different theme every day, as follows, with more speakers being added as the week unfolds:

RNC Theme: "Honoring the Great American Story"

Monday: "A Land of Heroes"
  • South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott
  • Former Ambassador to the U.N. and South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley
  • Presidential son Donald Trump, Jr.
  • Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida
  • Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio
  • Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel
  • Tanya Weinreis, (a Montana coffee shop owner who received federal loans to pay her employees during the coronavirus)
  • Andrew Pollack, (whose daughter Meadow was among those killed in the 2018 school shooting in Parkland, Florida)
Tuesday: "Land of Promise"
  • Secretary of State Mike Pompeo
  • Nicholas Sandmann
  • Senator Rand Paul (R-KY)
  • Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds
  • Florida Lieutenant Governor Jeanette Nuñez
  • Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron
  • Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi
  • Eric Trump
  • Tiffany Trump
  • Melania Trump
Wednesday: "Land of Opportunity"
  • South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem
  • Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN)
  • Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA)
  • Representative Dan Crenshaw (TX-02)
  • Representative Elise Stefanik (NY-21)
  • White House counselor Kellyanne Conway
  • Former acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell
  • Rep. Lee Zeldin of New York and
  • Presidential daughter-in-law Lara Trump
  • Clarence Henderson (a civil rights figure from the 1960s will address the “true meaning of peaceful protest,”)
  • Vice President Mike Pence
Thursday: "Land of Greatness"
  • Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson
  • Evangelist Rev. Franklin Graham
  • Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani
  • Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky
  • Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California and
  • Democrat turned Republican Rep. Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey
  • Ultimate Fighting Championship President Dana White
  • Alice Johnson (the criminal justice advocate whose sentence on drug crimes was commuted by Trump at the urging of celebrity Kim Kardashian)
  • Carl and Marsha Mueller, (the parents of human rights activist Kayla Mueller, who died while being held by the Islamic State group in Syria)
Can anyone imagine the Democrats showing this kind of respect to our country? They certainly did not do it at their convention last week. That very glum and hateful affair will provide a stark contrast to this convention, which is sure to focus on jobs, growth, freedom, liberty, renewal and the opportunity we have together as a nation to succeed and to have better days in the future than we have known in the past.

The choice is going to come down to jobs or mobs. Which would you prefer?

Unlike Biden who was not seen for days, Trump is live and at the convention.

Actually talking without a Teleprompter unlike Biden.

Trump is speaking now, it's actually a good speech. No prompting or stumbling like Biden. Very informative about COVID and future plans.

And as is his norm, throwing lots of things out as facts with absolutely nothing evident to support them as being so. He's now addressing his supporters in the great state of delusion.

OMG, the clown has been on TV for an hour spewing his usual lies about accomplishments, voter fraud, energy, jobs, denigrating the Democrats, and cheering up the knuckleheads in the room. What an embarrassing last hurrah before he goes on trial.


....and the "farmers are doing great!" Really? Might wish to ask a few, outside of the clown's socialist programs because he failed at making a trade deal, how they are doing!

Very good point Trump brought up: Biden's strong ties to China. He said China will own this country if Biden gets in, I think he's right.
