This speech struck a chord with me tonight. Some of our 'heads filled with mush' younger generation should pay attention to what he said.

"There is no other place to go."

Natalie Harp moved me to tears, but I couldn’t find her video yet.

C-Span had people call in after the convention and asked "What do you think of four more years of a Trump presidency?" Three out of about 10 callers were Democrats who are voting for President Trump.

Many heart felt speeches, moving personal stories. President Trump meeting with people on the front lines of the pandemic and former hostages stood out to me. Well done. (I've never watched a Republican convention ever.)

The father, Andrew Pollack, who lost his daughter due to the Parkland school shooting, was very powerful. I imagine some Dems who have been coddled by a “Trump is bad” trope had their eyes opened last night when reality hit them head on.

Some memorable quotes from speakers on the first night of the convention:

Senator Tim Scott (R-SC)

quote:
Our family went from cotton to Congress in one lifetime...

Isn’t it ironic that the Democrat politicians never leave home without security to protect them at all times? Why don’t they forgo their security and replace them with social workers, since that’s what they want for us?"


Herschel Walker

quote:
“I take it as a personal insult that people would think I would have a 37-year friendship with a racist,” Walker said. “Growing up in the Deep South, I have seen racism up close. I know what it is. And it isn’t Donald Trump.”

Nope. There are people who lost their children to school shooters, who are equally powerful. Unfortunately, rump threw one of them out of a speech.

Leftist democrat stupidity plays right into the hands of 'school shooters' and any other shooters in 'gun free zones'.

No, it doesn't. Righty craziness has taken over, and it's frightening.

Craziness has taken over all right. But you don’t see it on your choices of “news.” I would like to thank the Dems for not denouncing the riots. You have virtually guaranteed that you will suffer another four years of President Trump. Congratulations.

Pretty powerful speech, essentially:
I'm alive today because President Trump cared enough to give hope to the hopeless with 'Right To Try'!
