Paul Ryan, the House Speaker and leader of the Republican Party — a fierce Green Bay Packers fan, mind you — stepped out at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland an interesting way: by waving the famous Terrible Towel of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Well if there wasn't gonna be any riots, Ryan just assured us there will be after this nonsense.

Typical! Are you sure the trump protestors are democrats? Just wondering. The way some in the republican party treat Trump, it could very well be republicans that are protesting his nomination.

I think they are referring to the Delegates inside who are leading an anti Trump revolt. They are getting nowhere. I heard someone threw one of them into a crowd of Goths and he was eaten.

There are reports of some guy in a hoodie who was walking around for about 30 minutes and he was so stoned even the Goths were shaking their heads at him. Swish?

All the News Media cameras ran over to focus on a Trump supporter who appeared to be reaching down for a stone to throw but they walked away disappointed as he was only picking up a lucky penny he had found.

Inside the Convention the anti Trump crowd began calling for a question and was shouted down by the rest of the crowd.
There is now talk that the anti crowd will stage a walk out when Trump speaks.

Let them walk. They only want to change the way bound delegates must vote. The will of the people...not the will of the delegate. This system stinks! If delegates want to vote how they wish, simply change the system and everyone votes on their own. Bound or unbound. Move on, don't be a delegate and simply vote your will in the general.
This looks very silly and reflects poorly on this party.

Im more interested in what the protestors are doing outside. At least they are being genuine.
Inside the rnc is like an arranged marriage. They dont love him and border on hating him.

We are seeing Democracy in action. Those of differing opinions are having their say and as time goes by it will be the job of Trump and the RNC to pull everyone together for the march ahead.
Normally these Conventions are nothing more than well choreographed shows. This one is more entertaining so far.

Trump reflects poorly on the party. It's just some of the members are standing up for their true Republican values.

steeler towel being waved in the Q, by one of the republican leaders. Sickening and disgraceful, I'd be ashamed and feel bad for Browns fans thinking about voting for him. His values do seem to fall in line with the south though.

It's supposed to be hard! If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great!
