Blah, blah, blah same old shit from him.

Seems like he didn't write a word of it.  Other than the "USA!",  "Believe me,"  "Isn't Cleveland great", and "We're going to win"

When was the last time he used the word "credo" in a sentence?

The mouth breathers in the audience probably had to Google it.

Ivanka.  :thumbsup:

Christ on a crutch, just look at her.  You can only imagine how great she looks giving you head.  Fuck.

You don't need to quote Trump's introduction.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Sweet, he's going to get rid of Free Trade Agreements, and replace them with Great Trade Agreements. :yeah: 

He's going to negotiate individual deals with individual countries, no more trade agreements.  Everything is going to be renegotiated or we walk away. :showoff:

I don't know if it's legit, but that leaked Trump speech strikes me as very effective.

Did it make you LOLZ?

Without a doubt, that was the most offensive political speech I have ever heard.  Talk about a depressing worldview and a nightmarish vision for America.

Democrats Abroad sent me this summary of the convention:

QuoteOk, now it's official: Donald Trump is the Republican nominee for President.  If you watched Trump's shamelessly unreal acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention last night, you may be dazed and bewildered from being screamed at for more than an hour about the (wholly imaginary) Dystopian States of America. It's been a week of divisiveness, bigotry and crudity, projecting a vision of an uglier and crueler America.  The only redeeming words spoken were when Melania Trump quoted our wonderful First Lady Michelle Obama – without attribution.

But we can't sit around fretting about the fate of the nation - and the world - under a Trump presidency. As a party we are busy taking our campaign into communities across the country and  around the world. In the coming weeks, we'll have more to say about OUR nominee and HER vision for a better America – and the many other wonderful Democratic candidates running for office across the country. 

But for now we invite you to purge the venom and take the ONE WEEK DUMP TRUMP CHALLENGE.

{list of standard election activities/DA enrollment}

We don't expect everyone to do everything in the Dump Trump challenge – at least not in a week.  But if you do, write us at [email protected] and we'll put your name up on our website as a Super Duper Trump Dumper.

The Democrats better have a damn fine convention. I want to see Bill bite his lip and feel our pain.

Is the average age of Democrats Abroad nine?  :huh:

I would guess they are actually old given the people I saw at polling place in UK.

Also does that mean you don't want to be a Super Duper Trump Dumper? :hmm:
