kpete's JournalDavid Brooks: "The whole convention is to make his lonely soul feel affirmed."
This convention is targeted to one voter: Donald Trump. The whole convention is to make his lonely soul feel affirmed.

Stephen King: "What happened to you, America?"
After terrorist assholes hit the World Trade Center, 2,606 people died. The country came together: Democrats AND Republicans. Now 57% of Republicans call 176,000 dead from COVID-19 "acceptable losses?" What happened to you, America?

RNC 2nd Term Agendga - astonishingly whiny and pathetic
and as expected, LAZY:
The RNC announces there will be no GOP platform for the convention — just support for Trump’s second-term agenda, whatever that is

Amazing fact: apparently the DNC convention was helmed from (Emmy winner) Glenn Weiss's living room
Amazing fact: apparently the DNC convention was helmed from (Emmy winner) Glenn Weiss's living room in Brentwood. He had pants on but no shoes.

Houston Chronical Editorial: The difference between Biden & Trump is 'hope & light & love.'
Editorial: The difference between Biden and Trump is 'hope and light and love.' DNC 2020 proved it.
...........
Writing in the Houston Chronicle this Friday, the paper’s Editorial Board heaped praise on Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s DNC speech, saying that his message of optimism and unity “would have risked sounding like empty platitudes at a different time.”
“…but after almost four years of an administration fueled by divisiveness, Biden’s speech was a balm to the blistering political paralysis that has left us looking for leadership in the face of disaster,” the Board writes.
A global pandemic, the ensuing economic fallout, racial inequalities and unrest — all things that would have tested any leader. But the last four nights show that “the Democratic Party effectively made its case that President Donald Trump has not only failed to rise to the occasion, he has made things worse by undermining trust in institutions, by letting petty personal grievances cloud his judgment and by stoking hate and partisanship.”
“As the convention sought to prove, America is big enough for all.”

What a contrast.

As I watched Brayden Harrington talk about Biden helping him with his stutter, could not stop thinking of the clip of Trump mocking a disabled reporter. What a contrast.

: "Just remember: Joe Biden’ goes to church so regularly, that he doesn’t even need tear gas and a bunch of federalized troops to help him get there."

-- President Trump, quoted by CNN, apparently forgetting that he's president now.
“If you want a vision of your life under Biden’s presidency, think of the smoldering ruins of Minneapolis, the violent anarchy of Portland, the bloodstained sidewalks of Chicago, and imagine the mayhem coming to your town and every single town in America.”
