I still say Trump in a landslide. Those few who walked out look foolish.

I have the horrible feeling these Cruzers might try to do something to embarrass Melania tonight. If they do, they should be uncredentialed.

Talk about pissing off the Trump supporters... Bring it on!

Has anyone given a short synopsis on what's going on? I just tuned in for first time and see Mike Lee's mug in my face. YUCK.

“IOWA Delegates and COLORADO Delegates staged walkout.”

Cruz’s little crooked fanboys.

The ones from Colorado aren’t even there by a public vote.

Ted Cruz should not be speaking at this convention. He SHOULD be speaking in Philadelphia with his true allies at the next convention.

FNC has some Demon rat strategist on reveling in this. So I switch to OANN and it’s just airing the convention.

“Last night was a show on Fox about Benedict Arnold and his ambition overriding his patriotism.

I’m starting to think of Cruz as a Benedict Arnold.”

It does appear to be more about Ted Cruz than the United States of America. Better to find out now than later.

Benedict Arnold and his ambition overriding his patriotism...

I saw it too, and it was very good.

We have had systemic corruption for decades. Feds raided our county gov’t and hauled off two of the three Commissioners to prison. We now have a County gov’t with a lazy manager (Armond Budish) who hides from the public and we have Mayor Frank Jackson and Police Chief Calvin Williams who took the jobs nobody wanted in trying to turn the corner.

Meanwhile, a stealth apparatus in gov’t waiting for the day things get back to normal (i.e., corruption). We are making our way back, but nobody wanted to invest in a city that was run like Moscow.

You should have seen us five years ago.

Jackson and Williams are a fantastic pair and the future of our city. They are great leaders, and I am a very tough critic. Was never a fan until I saw how he vanquished Black Lives Matters and the Cavs championship parties.

I am full on cheerleader now.

Even if the NeverTrumpers got a roll call vote they would have LOST BIGTIME!

So what was the point?

They just gave the Dems and media unlimited sound bites—MORONS.
