Watching Trump's Whole Campaign Play Out From His Throwing His Hat In The Ring Thru The Primaries...

and his getting the delegate count to become the presumptive nominee and now this convention - it is like watching a modern day political reality version of the Beverly Hillbilly's. If I didn't see it play out like it did - I would think you couldn't make it up.

It is a reality show gone bad. Reminds me of all those spoof movies - like Naked Gun, Top Gun, Scary Movie, etc.

You can't make this stuff up and it keeps getting better.

Just think if Trump actually wins the presidency and takes residence in the White House.

So Let Me See If I Got This Right - The RNC Just Disenfranchised Some Of Their Delegates.....

So now Repugs get a taste of their own medicine and tactics. This time they were disenfranchised.

Is The Disunity In The Repug Party An Act?.....

I'm very suspicious of the disunity being displayed by the Repug Party going into this Convention. Could it be an act to get the Media talking about it - to get the People to watch the Convention - only to end on a note of a great coming together by all factions of the Repug Party to unite against the Dems and Hillary.

Would something like that tend to sway the American People to vote Repug and Trump?

Are we seeing a staged reality show being played out to play us? Just asking?

We Should Keep All American Flags At Half Staff Until....

Congress takes action on guns.

Might as well keep it at half staff with all the shootings we have.

Seems to me a good way to make a statement on guns.

Would Pence Have Been Re-Elected As Indiana's Governor?.....

Is he popular in Indiana or are they wanting to throw him out? Is there a Dem Gov candidate waiting in the wings to take over the Governorship of Indiana?

I Recently Bought A Samsung Galaxy S7 Phone & There Are A Number Of Agreements One Has To Click On..

in order to get the full capability of the phone. I'm leary of agreeing to these because I'm not exactly sure what I'm agreeing to and how signing up will affect my privacy. Along with this I have AT&T service and DirectTV agreements to sign as well on this phone.

For those of you that either have an S7 or have gone through this experience - can you give me some advice or pointers as to what I should do before I commit to any of these agreements.

I would really appreciate some help here.

The Repjugs Have No Alternative But To Dump Trump As Their Candidate.....

either way - whether he runs and loses to Hillary or he wins the WH - the Repug Party is doomed with him. They will not make it past November when he loses and if he just happens by some wild ass chance to win the WH - in 4 years after his term - they will become extinct.

I believe that for the good of their Party - they have to come up with an alternative candidate from this upcoming convention. They can't let Trump be their standard bearer.

In General - How Do Police Depts Feel About People & Guns?....

Have PD's weighed in on open carry? Have PD's weighed in on concealed carry? Have PD's weighed in on assault weapons? Have PD's weighed in on large capacity ammo magazines?

Watching how the Dallas Police were outgunned against this guy with the assault weapon - one would think that they would be anti such weapons.

Why aren't the police depts(PD's) across this country more vocal about gun control?

If I were a cop I certainly would not like to be kind of a sitting duck to perhaps mentally screwed up bad actors with guns.

Why don't we hear more from PD's regarding these issues.

I would think that PD's being vocal on these issues would go a long way to sway Congress.

Please weigh in on my post here. Help me understand.
