5. I've been wondering about that.

Night 1 was pure "He is the Alpha and Omega!" religious wingnuttery, plus Sean O'Brien piping up with his own "one tough SOB" applause lines. Barfalicious.

Night 2 was more abject groveling and @ss-kissing, though I frankly did not watch or listen to more than a few seconds.

Tonight is Hillbilly Elegy night which should be even more disgusting as King Prick gets the red carpet treatment.

Then of course Trump, saying who knows what. The most barfalicious night of all.

So my guess is: if someone doesn't already LOVE Trump and his fear-mongering friends, they won't find anything new here. Zero bounce.

Meanwhile Biden has kicked into full campaign mode and is giving speeches and TV appearances round the clock and actually telling us what we DON'T already know, namely his astonishing accomplishments,

So I think Joe will continue rising, as he usually does about this time. He might even get a boost from his own convention.


p.s. I notice Applegrove beat me to this article by 12 hours, my apologies. Good job sir and hats off to you Mr. Applegrove!
