Conventions are just for the base and the propaganda, they serve no useful purpose, especially when we know who the two nominees will be. They are a waste even without covid. The GOP will hold theirs because they are amoral a-holes but the Dems do not need to hold one and shouldn't.

More interestingly, has anybody seen Rudy lately? Was he not allowed to return from Ukraine until he had all the goods, every single scrap, on Joe Biden? Is Rudy lurking in dark alleys in Kiev right now? One can only hope.

50,000 for the convention, all the militias and Proud Little boys, 10s of thousands more to service the event at hotels, restaurants, drive buses, sell guns and ammo, etc.

If obese Impeached Trump is taking hydroxychloroquine then I suspect Pence is waiting for IT to have a heart attack.

I doubt he has six inches to give, thus his being a total douchebag.

They're really leaning into the whole "let's gamble with the lives of the people who vote for us" thing, aren't they?

I wonder if there will be more calls for the olds to sacrifice themselves for the stock market while they're at it
