Nothing says "ROCK AND ROLL" like a Republican convention. Yesterday, the Trump campaign released a list of people who were supposed to speak at next week's Republican National Convention. This list included a fella named Tim Tebow, who I am told is a sportsball player who is really into Jesus and stuff, and also Ivanka Trump's rabbi, Rabbi Haskel Lookstein. They will no longer be participating, but for different reasons!
It's always been a given that the kids would show up to protest the existence of an opposition political party. Alls we can do is hope that the malicious troublemakers get kept at a distance. Cop depts. have become much more sophisticated about crowd control--moving people into penned areas. Of course, the Cleveland police themselves may feel the urge to express a political opinion or two, with pepper spray.
The fact that Cleveland also has a world-class museum and symphony is of zero interest to the mouthbreathers of the GOP. Also, they are hoping we will all think that logo is the same one as Woodstock's, and will mistake the GOP convention for a cool event.
Oh god, they are going to get some poor hungry actor to dress up as George Washington, aren't they? And explain to all of us that the Second Amendment, which he personally wrote, is all about private ownership of automatic weapons.
The media will be alternately bored to tears and stunned at the idiocy. So if one protestor stumbles on a curb and stubs his toe, it will become the headline story of the weekend. Count on it.
Big donors are pouring their money into the downticket races. If I were a Dem running for school board this year, I would be pretty upset. (I am anyway.)
Tune in to the new season of How to Get Away with Murder, in which the brilliant law professor is asked to defend the United States from a hostile takeover in the landmark case, People v. Turnip. Also, everyone has sex with someone bad.
This motherfucker wants to try running a country into the ground, and not just any country. Can't fundraise, can't pick qualified staff, can't confirm guest speakers for a fucking convention. My administrative assistant is far more qualified to run this country than Drumpf is, and she can read.
In any case, I doubt Track being in jail would stop Palin from showing up at the Convention. Nothing else her kids do has ever had the slightest importance for her--why would she start now?
My guess is that Turnip does not want her upstaging him. Alternatively, she will be the SEKRET SURPRIZE GUEST brought out to introduce him on the Big Night.

And then there are the guns ...
He'll get the usual convention bounce. That's part of what happened this week. Nothing to get anxious about.
The Republican version of Rock n Roll! Booyah!

Never fear, 75% of Fundies will grit their teeth and vote for Turnip. they just won't enjoy doing it. (The other 25% are black.)

Except that he has pretty much said he's supporting Clinton. They went to school together or something.

P in v? Probably. There are other options. But they don't count, in many circles.
He is shocked, shocked to discover that there will be politics at the Republican Convention. Fuck him.
Trumpence is how much money this country will have left if they get elected.
