the republicon convention is going to be a total DISASTER

[BaronChocula]

The WNs will be split on whether to avoid the topic of abortion and whether to use it as a stage to double down on reproductive freedom.

Instead of aspirational uplifting prime time speeches we'll get angry hostile calls for rolling back rights, bullying the weak and vengeance.

They will encourage participation in an election they insist is rigged.

Defendant trermp is going to find a way to make it a money-making scheme for himself.

It's going to be such a mess. I can't wait.

1. Will it be televised? I imagine not, but there'll e a lot of reporters

Why bother even having one since there will only be one candidate.

2. Using your logic, why should we televise ours?

you said

3. It normally is televised

It's a nearly week-long televised ad. But with the departures from norms that those goons are going through, who knows? They might decide to keep out cameras. I doubt they have enough self-awareness to know they're in such dire straights that airing it would be an embarrassment.

5. I imagine it will be televised

but I also imagine that the GOPers will limit press/broadcast access to friendly media outlets.

I think it should be televised. Their lack of a platform is good for Democrats--drives home the point that they have no ideas and are just blindly following a demagogue.

4. I propose a drinking game for the GOP convention

Anytime an indicted GOPer is introduced or mentioned

(but of course, you'd have to limit this to only the first mention, because, you know.... alcohol poisoning)
