A Triumphant Return
In a new term as President, we will again build the greatest economy in history – quickly returning to full employment, soaring incomes, and RECORD prosperity! We will DEFEND AMERICA against all threats, and protect America against all dangers. We will LEAD AMERICA into new frontiers of ambition and discovery, and we will reach for new heights of national achievement. We will rekindle new faith in our values, new pride in our history, and a new spirit of unity that can ONLY be realized...

Link to quote: Full text: President Trump's 2020 RNC acceptance speech (nbcnews.com)




Last night Donald Trump accepted his party's nomination and set a new record for the longest convention speech ever (over 90 minutes) according to "The American Presidency Project." It came only five days after he was nearly killed by a gunman. The speech was supposed to be about unity and going forward on a positive note. I kind of wish Trump had stuck with that, but he couldn't resist striking back at the policies of Joe Biden, though he only mentioned Biden's name once. The speech was very low key for Trump, and most of it was clearly off script. Nonetheless, Trump pledged to be President for all of America.

The first thirty minutes of the speech were perfect: “Our society must be healed" he told a rapt audience after revealing what it was like to surviving an assassination attempt. The low point was again returning to what democrats did to win the 2020 election. Whatever happened is over and is better left to historians.

That being said, I had little problem with the following: 

"At the Democrat National Convention, Joe Biden and his party repeatedly assailed America as a land of racial, economic, and social injustice. So tonight, I ask you a very simple question: How can the Democrat Party ask to lead our country when it spends so much time tearing down our country?

In the left’s backward view, they do not see America as the most free, just, and exceptional nation on earth. Instead, they see a wicked nation that must be punished for its sins."

dsc-9044b.jpg?c=original

He also said that Americans deserve better. He honored the man who died during the assassination attempt and departs the convention with a lead in the polls for the first time in three presidential campaigns.



In the news:

Biden remained in Delaware with Covid yesterday. He was taking the drug Paxlovid and had respiratory symptoms, his doctor said.

Speaker Mike Johnson said Biden should fire Kimberly Cheatle, the Secret Service director, over security failures before the shooting.

Hundreds of people attended a public visitation for Comperatore, the Trump supporter killed at the rally.

A tech outage has disrupted computer systems around the world. Several major airlines, including American, United and Delta, grounded all flights.

A drone struck a building in central Tel Aviv overnight, killing at least one person. The Houthis, an Iran-backed militia in Yemen, claimed responsibility for the attack.

Germany’s chancellor has vowed to overhaul the military, but his government has proposed only modest increases in military spending.

A federal appeals court blocked the Biden administration’s student repayment plan known as "SAVE" as the Court's continue to rule against Biden's unconstitutional student debt forgiveness plans.

Lou Dobbs, cable news host died at the age of 78.

By watering down its stance on abortion, the Republican Party has abandoned the Pro-Life movement according to Patrick T Brown.

The problem is the democrats will lie about trumps position on abortion and their propaganda arm will not call them out on it and will gleefully repeat it, I saw an interview today with Bidens campaign manager where he said that trump will institute a nationwide abortion ban and the person interviewing him just nodded his head.

Exactly, Hur declined to charge Biden since the president could portray himself as an "elderly man with a poor memory" who would be sympathetic to a jury.

Hur was slammed by Dems who now call on Biden to withdraw from the campaign.

being on the outside looking in , it seems to me the only ones that think trials and convictions matter are the ones that think that should work .

whether the trials happen or not or if there are convictions  doesnt seem to matter to trump , and if it doesnt matter to him his supporters wont care either , then there are the actual voters , they have their different take watching it all go down .  and its pretty much built up that , those things just dont matter .

 to the consternation of those that think it should and should have worked .

If I was stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire and I had to pick between Biden and Trump, I would pick Biden every day of the week. Seriously, look at trump, he's never known a days work in his life. I am sure you have had demeaning physical jobs,...I spent 2 years shoveling wet sand under a rock crusher....I am sure we have both worked our asses off, but trump? Never. Can we at least agree that if he could find someone to wipe his ass for him, he would? Nuf said.

too bad true sarcasm does not lend itself well to the written / typed word .

 i will agree , trump has lived a life of privilige , only a fool would deny it , one of those priviliges is the ability to hire others to do things one doesnt want oe have time to do . so if he wishes to and can afford to pay someone to do it , more power to him .

I think this is where we differ . yes i have had to do strenuous physical labor , I as well have worked on a crusher , as well as a gravel wash plant . didnt take me long to go from starting hand to also doing pre run and shutdown maint , or doing start up and making sure everything was fed right . and running correctly . 

 every member of the crews i was on , knew what a shovel was and how to use one and no one was exempt from haveing to get dirty using one .

was that demeaning work ? not if it was honest work being paid an honest wage in decent hours , with decent crewmembers. if it was demeaning to you , i would have to guess there was other issues involved  and that maybe you felt that type of work beneath your capabilities . that would mean you demeaned yourself .

 I will touch on biden here . he has spend over 50 years working for government .

 He is 81 , so first 20 or so years are covered growing up , going to school getting an education . IF my math is right he went into politics and government work right around the time he hit 30 , so what did he do in that short span of time between getting out of school to include college , and going into politics ?  what was his listed occupation during that short time before politics that was not demeaning to him? I dont know anyone that has been able to tell me .

 Now what i am about to say will surprise not only you but most of the people on the site .

IF Biden decides to end his campaign , i think it is perfectly fine he finish his elected term and leave in Jan , with dignity .

 if it goes other ways , then they get dealt with as they present themselves .

The first thirty minutes of the speech were perfect: “Our society must be healed" he told a rapt audience after revealing what it was like to surviving an assassination attempt. The low point was again returning to what democrats did to win the 2020 election. Whatever happened is over and is better left to historians.

This speech was a S.. L.. O.. W.. motion train wreck, empahsis on SLOW. 

It is endlessly both amusing and befuddling that some Republicans think Trump will EVER stop talking about 2020. Here's a tip for you -  HE DOESNT WANT TO.  He''ll still be mumbling some lie about the box of votes under the table in Georgia when they close the casket on him one day.

This was supposed to be about unity. Other than him literally mentioning the word a time or two there was nothing unifying about this speech, and to boot half the time he looked very lethargic, almost disinterested in what he was reading. 

If there was any self-reflection in the Republican Party they would be this morning calling for the same sort of 'panic' we see from the Democrats right now.

You do see the problem with that, right? Fulton county stopped the vote count because of what they initially called a burst pipe (there was only a backed-up toilet if even that can be believed). So, the observers and reporters had to leave and in private the vote count resumed. Even if they did nothing wrong, that sure as hell looked like vote tampering.

This was supposed to be about unity. Other than him literally mentioning the word a time or two there was nothing unifying about this speech, and to boot half the time he looked very lethargic, almost disinterested in what he was reading. 

Look back at the first 30 minutes. One third of that long speech was on unity. My concern was that he was not only very low key, but even seemed tired to me. Maybe it is understandable. Maybe he should have only shown up on the final night.

I must have missed Trump's rant that the election was stolen.  I only heard Trump mention the 2020 election a couple of times in passing remarks.  Certainly wasn't anything like Trump's previous remarks and didn't rise to the level of Biden's brag of being the only candidate to beat Trump.

Well, i don't fully agree with that.  If Trump's speech was unimportant then the Biden camp wouldn't be accusing Trump for what he didn't say.

IMO the Republican convention, topped off by Trump's rambling story telling style, has made blue the new brown.  And there's a lot of blue stained undies this morning.  Democrats are going to be throwing a lot of blue at the wall to see what sticks.

Do you understand that Trump's style is very much like country conversation on the porch?  Trump wasn't talking at you, like most politicians, Trump was talking to you.  And the talk has to roam, wander, and meander through all the hills and hollers before it gets to where it's going.  Have you ever heard the conversation when people are shelling beans, plucking chickens, or piecing together a quilt?  It's a way of just enjoying each others company.  Trump just sits on the bench, takes out a jack knife, whittles a stick, and chews the fat.  Good to see ya, let's sit a spell.  If you're in a hurry to get to the point then you'll probably miss it.

PHOENIX — Arizona won't be able to block those who sign up to vote using a federal registration form from casting a ballot in the presidential race, at least not now.

In a brief order Thursday, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a plea by Republican legislative leaders to delay a ruling by a trial judge that barring enforcement of such a ban.

In the same order, the three-judge panel also said those using that federal form still can cast their ballots by mail.

What the judges decided, however, is that anyone who tries to register to vote using a state form is required at the same time to provide documented proof of citizenship. More to the point, if they do not, the application must now be rejected.

That overturns what had been occurring.

Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer said the practice until now has been that registration requests using the state form that did not also have proof of citizenship automatically were put into the "federal only'' category, as if the applicants had submitted a federal form.

Richer said he and the other 14 county recorders will stop doing that.

But Richer noted none of this disturbs the ability of those who use the federal form in the first place to be able to cast a ballot in the presidential race.

House Speaker Ben Toma acknowledged the limited nature of the victory.
"But it's still a win,'' he told Capitol Media Services.

Decision by 9th Court Provides Clarity About Citizenship and Voter Registration in Arizona (kawc.org)


So if you want to cheat use the federal voting form.

I never thought I'd see the day republicans would purge the warmongers out of their party and Democrats would embrace these stains on human nature.

2024 is Nationalism vs Global Neoconism.

Both Democrats and Republicans are all politicians- there is no decency to purge to begin with.

Either they are corrupt before entering politics; and get corrupted while in office. 

Those that fight to stay pure don't last long in the Establishment parties.

Only partisans can't see that.

Doesn't change what he said being true. Democrats and Republicans have swapped positions. Democrats are pro war and the military industrial complex; and Republicans have turn isolationist not wanting to get involved in other countries' garbage.

They can purge them from Congress, like the republicans did to Santos, Of course the democrats are still embracing their foreign agent Menedez because a dem vote is more important than showing actual integrity.
