This is the difference better the two parties - not one Republican will publicly or privately express any concern about Trump after that dumpster fire of a speech. It’s legitimately astounding

Tonight’s speech is going to harden Democrats’ spines. The best argument against the party replacing Biden was fatalism: if you’ll lose anyway, may as well lose conventionally.

But no Democrat watching that speech thought Trump unbeatable. It was an antidote to fatalism.
Thank you @chrislhayes --- "This is not a colossus, this is not the big bad wolf, this is not a vigorous and incredibly deft political communicator. This is an old man in decline who's been doing the same schtick for a very long time and it's really wearing thin."

Seriously, if you’re not watching it, it’s a reminder of why he is without exception, the least manly person ever to hold the office. A tired and whiny speech that’s so far has nothing to do with politics and everything about him https://t.co/9gFwXVgICO

Day 2 of the RNC is focused on crime and border security under the theme "Make America Safe Again.”

Recent FBI stats show a historic drop in violent crime under President Biden. Crime has PLUMMETED under President Biden after SPIKING under Donald Trump. pic.twitter.com/lMDpFjdF0N
The same night speaker after speaker declares a literal "invasion" of "gangs" and "rapists," speaker after speaker attacks and mocks trans kids, the night the party anoints JD Vance, who celebrates the killer Kyle Rittenhouse as a model of "values." https://t.co/90zgWuvaOo

At the Trump Unity RNC so far we got a puppy killer & an OnlyFans model who promotes Satanism as keynote speakers, Trump rolling in like he just survived the Tet Offensive, Rudy falling to the floor, Gaetz yelling at McCarthy, and McCarthy saying Gaetz paid a minor for sex. MAGA!

He has a hotel in Chicago. If he stays there, he can personally profit from the USSS having to stay there.

If he stayed in Milwaukee, some random hotelier not named Trump would get that money, and who wants that. https://t.co/SSBJ7ltJQs
🚨TRUMP TO HOUSE REPUBLICANS:

"Milwaukee, where we are having our convention, is a horrible city."
The Republican National Convention in Milwaukee is just a month away, and a big mistake was made in promoting the event: A photo of Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam was used on the convention website instead of the Wisconsin city.https://t.co/guwCquMNyt
