Friends, delegates and fellow Americans: I humbly and gratefully accept your nomination for the presidency of the United States. Together, we will lead our party back to the White House, and we will lead our country back to safety, prosperity, and peace. We will be a country of generosity and warmth. But we will also be a country of law and order.
Our Convention occurs at a moment of crisis for our nation. The attacks on our police, and the terrorism in our cities, threaten our very way of life. Any politician who does not grasp this danger is not fit to lead our country.
Americans watching this address tonight have seen the recent images of violence in our streets and the chaos in our communities. Many have witnessed this violence personally, some have even been its victims.
I have a message for all of you: the crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon come to an end. Beginning on January 20th 2017, safety will be restored.

This thread is so quiet.
After all my years here I’m listening to a speech that could have been written by Freepers. I’m speechless.
Yeah, where is everybody?
I have been wondering the same thing myself.
Awesome
Glued to the tv!!! I came to see what everyone thought of the speech!!
Yes, it’s as though Donald Trump is the Super-Freeper!
Just hang on a little longer folks...
It’s going to be “Morning in America” again real soon...
President Ronnie... I hope you’re watching us. We’ll make you proud again...
The Adults are going to be back in charge come November.
Is there a word for something more than a mere grand slam?
A stunning nomination speech.
The Man LOVES his - OUR - Country, and it shows.
Good Lord, someone FINALLY speaking for US.
There’s usually a few thousand comments on a thread like this! Where is everyone
“..Is there a word for something more than a mere grand slam?..”
Yes. Trump.
Morning in America again.
Part II
A stunning nomination speech.
The Man LOVES his - OUR - Country, and it shows.
Good Lord, someone FINALLY speaking for US.
I just logged off and watched, best speech I think he’s ever done. Hit it out of the park several times. And a couple of sound bytes we’ll hear for a week. We need a change of leaders for a change in policy...
He also hit on some issues I never expected, and got some specific pokes in to let the pinheads in DC know their gravy train is about to be derailed.
I just got back online so I didn’t read anything since somewhere around post 80 or so I think...
Anyway excellent, best I think he’s ever done. I know he was using a teleprompter, but he also managed to get some feeling in there too.
He said it right at the end. I watched the whole thing.
The ABC commentators can go f*** themselves.
They’re urinating down their collective legs right now.
An AMERICAN is in the room, and they’re terrified. And that’s a GOOD thing.
As far as I can tell, there wasn’t a live thread started and this one wasn’t marked as “LIVE THREAD” until Ivanka was into her speech.
You are sooooo right!
I am so happy tonight.
A truly great night.
I watched on Newsmax, I’ll watch Fox at times, but once Megyn comes on after Orielly, I switch to Newsmax and it stays there unless I miss the Factor earlier in the evening. On Sundays I like to watch Legends and Lies, some great stuff on the founding fathers this season.
