She said she didn't want to go into politics. Yet here she is.

Exactly. I expect her to swoop in at the last possible moment — to save the day! They kept their DC house for a reason. No other ex-president does that.

Bill Clinton has a DC house.

Doesn't Ryan have one there too?

+1. black people have suffered racism forever. Why call out antisemitism? Read the room. There are tons of black people in that room.


Tons of Jews (and people of other backgrounds) as well. Antisemitism has been around forever as well.


And it's all bad. I don't know why some posters feel that the persecution of their group should be paramount


Jews mention antisemitism and they’re accused of making it “paramount.” Can’t make this stuff up. Why do we bother voting Dem?


Because Trump will kill democracy. But it doesn’t make me feel good given the tacit acceptance of antisemitism




Just stop; you only make yourself sound stupid. Even the Post abandoned the false narrative of “trump is a threat to democracy.”

Exactly.


Except when he says things like how he’ll be a dictator only for the first day or how folks will never have to vote again….

Wise people watch what leaders do, and less of what they say.
Most Americans are demanding secure borders. He did it before and he’ll do it again. Dems opened borders on day one. Biggest mistake ever.



Trump killed the border security legislation. You’re an idiot.


Dp.. but Biden had 3 years to fix the issue. Why wait so long? I suspect because people were seeing the news of migrants overwhelming blue states, there was more concern so then Biden felt like he had to act.

He should've taken care if the issue in the first year. That was a lost opportunity to nail 2024


He didn't have the same tools as Trump. They need to pass legislation and stop with the band-aids.

Democrats killed every. single. effective. border. policy. on. day. one.
Exactly what “tools” did Trump have that Democrats didn’t have?


Trump abused a law that allowed him to "close the border" - it was overturned by the courts. Hence the need to legislation, which the GOP wrote and Trump killed.

It tells me that it really isn't an issue other than to keep people like you angry.


Tbf he did start building the wall, that us taxpayers paid for and that was a boondongle. The courts didn't stop that.


Not just a boondoggle. It started rusting out and falling over within months, and was easily scaled with a ladder. Also, that isn't how most people are getting into the country, and certainly not how the fentenyl gets into the country. Biden wanted that bill for months/years. It took that long to pull it together and then trump just killed it. Just like the GOP killed an attempt when Obama was president and when Clinton was president. Trump had the white house, House and Senate - why didn't they pass a bill then?

He’s a lot better than her. She was too mechanical and has a somewhat dull cadence.


Thank you.

Yeah, and it’s 100% his attitude and energy.

Biden used an EO to limit asylum seekers. He could've done that 3 years ago.

Yeah the thing about a wall is that it really needs to go from one side to another. I mean, would you bother to build a wall that only coveted like 10% of your back yard? Would that be a good use of money? Or just something for some birds to smack up against?

His plan was to build the wall across the entire southern border. It would've been very expensive, especially giving the contracts to his supporters who had no idea what they were doing.

I don't think a border wall is a bad idea in theory but reality is very different.

Blah, blah, blah. Call it later than you wanted it. Fine. A bipartisan group came up with a plan and Trump killed it for political gain. He doesn’t think it’s urgent. He just wants to scare people talking about it.


That was the problem. Biden didn't think it urgent and it got out of control. Your blah blah about this is why some people prefer Trump. But go on and stick your heads in the sand. I hope harris pays more attention to the blah blah.


Trump killed a tool that would have helped. You can’t get around that with nitpicky gripes about the process.

The room is silent because he is talking to them (not reading to, or lecturing at, them)!

I don’t think we will have another politician like him in my lifetime…

There are tons of Jews in the room too.

This topic is contentious. This convention is about unity. Not sure this is the right place to give a speech about it. I hate that jews think one is antisemetic if one doesnt support what Israel is doing. It's like one cannot have a brain and their own opinions and must agree with Israel or else one must be antisemetic.


unless you are Jewish you are unaware of everyday Jews being threatened or feeling threatened by Israel hate. Your take is simplistic. I mean this with goodwill, please do some reading or talking to people.
We need to hear others’ stories—everyone’s.


I'm sure some Palestinian would lend a sympathetic ear.

Do you want to hear their stories, too?

The funny thing is I used to be a staunch R pro Israel. I always supported the right for Israel to exist. I still do. But I also support the right for Palestinians to not be slaughtered and have their own homeland without being second class citizens.


I am the PP and Yes, I do want to hear their stories too. You know nothing about me.
