The highlight last night was by far Ivanka. Too bad Donald couldn't build off her great performance. Honestly, I thought Trumps speech was pretty dull.

His daughter though, she nailed it!

I think that not only is she hot, she's by far the smartest one of the bunch. If only the Donald Trump she described was actually running for president. You have to factor in that she is his daughter.

I do feel a little better about him possibly winning if she will be in the day to day somehow. I think the kids might rein him in a lot. Don't like Pence at all, too wingnut for me.

I disagree, the highlight for me was Peter Thiel. What an awesome story and an awesome speech.

An openly gay man, outspoken republican, getting a standing ovation at the RNC, while talking about gay rights.. for the life of me I can't imagine why I don't see more about it in the media this morning..

People try doing something about gun violence. It gets blocked all the time by bought politicians by the NRA.

They do work well in France.

After all, those gun laws work so well in places like France.

I would also add this:

The NBA cannot play their All Star game in NC because of a law that says that men cannot use the women's bathroom .... but they are fine with playing in the state with the highest murder rate in the country.

That's how screwed up this country is.

So one, or a couple of isolated incidents should be enough to change the gun policy that has, and continues to work so well?

sorry, but that's stupid.

I need a link for the gun death rates changing soon. I'm sure you can find one for me.

Why is it screwed up?

This law with bathrooms just happened. The nba can't do anything about the murder rates. Murder happens in every state.

But the law? It's in NC.

So they moved.

Capitalism. Free market. Suck it up.

I don't remember the truck dude using s gun.

He used a truck.

I guess by your logic, everybody in France needs big trucks. It's the only way to defend against a truck attack.

Your argument is weak.

Businesses are allowe to do whatever they want.

You can call them hypocrites. Just like we can call religious people hypocrites.

The NBA can't control what happens in other countries. They can't really control what happens in the states, but it's a lot easier to make a point in your home country than abroad.

I know you don't agree,must it doesn't matter. It's already done.

Suck it up.

And yet, the deaths came from bodies getting dropped by a truck.

Why? I get told on this board to get over it all the time.

Yea. I guess he never practiced aiming while trying to control a 19 ton truck that obviously had the tires slicked by blood and guts.

Is practicing something you'd recommend in the future?

We need more 19 ton trucks. It's the only way to prevent a terrorist attack with a 19 ton truck.

I recommend mac trucks. Some people like freightliner

That's true.

So I apologize for that.

I'm not ok with any of it. I never once even remotely implied that.

What I'm doing is pointing out how knee jerk is it to complain about citizens not being armed, in a country where its policy, and a policy that has worked.

A terrorist attack is random and rare per country.

You don't start changing policies that have worked just because of isolated incidents.

In France, the police being armed is enough for them. Stop acting like every country needs to have the same gun policies as America.

http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidenti...s-its-own-poll/

At 12:52 a.m., this reporter texted Breitbart Washington political editor Matthew Boyle the following message: “56 percent more likely to vote for Trump post speech. 75 percent positive reaction – CNN POLL!!!!!!”

“Huge write,” Boyle replied.

The text was in reference to a CNN instant poll that was briefly displayed onscreen. The numbers were accurate, which brings up one of the problems with instant polls: mainstream media networks have to end up downplaying and throwing cold water on their own poll results when they show support for Trump.

The CNN article, “World Reacts to Donald Trump’s Acceptance Speech,” reads:

El Pais, Spain’s highest circulation newspaper, said Trump’s speech offered a “grim vision of America.” While the UK’s Daily Telegraph described the speech as “deeply pessimistic” and said fact-checkers were “highly critical,” it highlighted a CNN instant poll that found that 56% of Americans who watched the speech responded positively.

This reporter did not happen to meet anyone from El Pais or the UK’s Daily Telegraph in Cleveland at the convention – where a killer Neil Diamond cover band held court in the afternoon civic space next to the upper decks of the Indians’ ballpark.

But CNN’s report is flawed: the 56 percent number was actually the lower of two numbers. The instant poll actually showed that 75 percent of Americans had a positive view of the speech, and that 56 percent would be more likely to vote for him following the speech.

CNN apparently thinks so little of its own instant polling service that it buries the results in the bottom paragraphs of a tedious article citing the newspapers in Spain.

The mainstream press, typically, failed to integrate in any meaningful way with the actual delegates, which the delegates appreciated.

I find it odd how you openly seem to stand up for the rights of Pence to uphold his beliefs even in the political arena.

Yet you seem to feel somewhat offended when the NBA stands on their principals.

It seems to me you only laud people standing up for their beliefs when it matches your own.
