An American story
Tonight is a night of hope. A celebration of what America once was, and with God’s grace, what it will soon be again.

Link to quote: 'A night of hope': JD Vance accepts GOP vice president nomination. Read his RNC speech. (msn.com)

He was born in 1984 in very humble beginnings. Middletown is a small working-class town in southwestern Ohio.  His mother was an alcoholic & a drug addict and his parents divorced when he was very young. Under the guidance of his maternal grandmother, he would complete his high school education and then he enlisted in the US Marine Corps. (Some may say the Marines have served those from broken homes well) He served in the Iraq war and after that he attended Ohio State University and Yale Law School and eventually became a successful businessman. "Only in America, " we used to say.

I don't want to leave out the noteworthy book he wrote: "Hillbilly Elegy." The book is both a memoir of J. D. Vance's lifetime experiences and a chronicle of the forgotten Americans who were the losers to globalization. Now Vance has just been named as Donald Trump's Vice-Presidential nominee. He may be the perfect choice.

Last night he accepted the nomination before a crowd of enthusiastic Americans who were optimistic about the nation's future.

This is what he said about the GOP's Presidential nominee:

"Tonight is a night of hope. A celebration of what America once was, and with God’s grace, what it will soon be again.

And it is a reminder of the sacred duty that we have to preserve the American experiment, to choose a new path for our children and grandchildren.

But as we meet tonight, we cannot forget that this evening could have been much different. Instead of a day of celebration, this could have been a day of heartache and mourning. For the last eight years, President Trump has given everything he has to fight for the people of our country. He didn’t need politics, but the country needed him.

Prior to running for president, he was one of the most successful businessmen in the world. He had everything anyone could ever want in a life. And yet, instead of choosing the easy path, he chose to endure abuse, slander, and persecution.

But don’t take my word for it, go and watch the video of a  would-be assassin  coming a quarter of an  inch from taking his life. Consider the lies they told you about Donald Trump. And then look at the photo of him defiant – fist in the air.

When Donald J. Trump rose to his feet in that Pennsylvania field – all of America stood up with him.

Even in his most perilous moment WE were on his mind. His instinct was for US. To call us to something higher. To something greater. To once again be citizens who ask what our country needs of us.

He called for national unity, for calm. He remembered the victims of the terrible attack, especially the brave Corey Comperatore, who gave his life to protect his family.

And then President Trump Flew to Milwaukee and got back to work.

That is the man I’ve gotten to know personally over the last few years.

He is our once and future president future president of the United States."

What a positive speech!  Very refreshing.

An American success story.

Good morning.

To the forgotten Americans:

We won’t import foreign labor, we’ll fight for American citizens. We won’t buy energy from countries that hate us, we’ll get it right here from American Workers. We won’t sacrifice our supply chains to unlimited global trade, we’ll stamp every product Made in the USA. We will build factories again, put people to work making real products for American families, made with the hands of American workers. Together, we will protect the wages of American workers—union and non-union alike—and stop the Chinese Communist Party from building THEIR middle class on the backs of our hard-working citizens. Together, we will make our allies share in the burden of securing world peace: no more free rides for nations that betray the generosity of the American taxpayer. Together, we will send our kids to war only when we must. But as President Trump showed with the elimination of ISIS, when we punch, we will punch hard. Together, we will put the citizens of America first, whatever the color of their skin. We will, in short, make America great again. I am married to the daughter of South Asian immigrants to this country, incredible people, people who genuinely have enriched the country in so many ways. And of course, I'm biased, because I love my wife, but I believe that it's true.

I wonder if the same donors that are withholding funds from Biden are also doing it for the down ticket candidates. They will kick him to the curb because he is senile, how are the going to spin it is the question and how stupid do their supporters have to be to parrot their excuse for him leaving the race?

I thought the assassination attempt saved him as it changed the topic of the day away from his incapacity. .  But once dems started leaking the contents of that batshit crazy phone call from saturday and that Schumer had met with him and told him to quit, it’s clear they aren’t giving up.  Covid probably buys him some time but I think it’s just a matter of days at this point.

 He’s probably negotiating payoffs for his kids and Jill. They’ll get promised  cushy appointments in non profits and then he’ll go.

If you follow his rhetoric, he is setting the stage for his exit, no matter how much he denies he is leaving.

"And by the way, she's not only a great vice president, she could be president of the United States,” Biden said

Now this could be him setting the stage......Or more likely demonstrating that his cheese has slipped completely off the cracker.

Almost like the picture and the event and the 'incident' were staged.

Was it a conspiracy?

Another fake?

Can you give us some evidence?

BTW, here is the replacement cover:

Meaning the picture and the incident - the rally would have had to have been held for the 'incident' to occur though right?

You said it looked staged.

How so?

The shooter must have been the greatest marksman of all time, don't you think?

Why did Time change the cover?

Seeing as it is dated August 5, 2024, my guess is it's a fake. The latest issue has Noah Lyles on the cover.

That is when it was going to appear.

They can't change the cover after it is issued.

So, I have you down as calling the whole story "fake."

You defined me a long time ago, were wrong then and still are. I merely questioned the pic because of the date. Taking too many things personally is a poison.

Could well be so, but then there have been a number of fake Time covers. I believe one of them is hanging on some gold-leafed wall ... somewhere.

You know they can't change a cover after publication. Next month is August.

I do? Including your 'cover' there are two others so far for Aug. 5th.

That said I did some research and you may be correct:

Palin didn’t get a law degree from Yale or her selected editor of the Yale Law Journal.

Palin is a bigger buffoon.  Vance is more dangerous.  That shows what a Yale law degree gets you.

Josh Hawley has a Yale law degree.  Ted Cruz went to Harvard.  Neither of them is the least bit impressive, except for how awful they are.
