Fantastic OP

Unfortunately due to school related crap I can't pay enough attention to this shitshow but I'll be reading this thread to keep up to date. Really can't believe a significant portion of this country will still vote for the GOP...

Somehow I missed that Joni "Make em Squeal" Ernst will be there, that should be fun in a folksy, castration-oriented kinda way.

 

[DrForester]

Dang, Trump is speaking on Thursday Night...

Kind of wanted to see the meltdown of Trump's acceptance speech live online, but there's much more important Meltdown watching coming up...

 

[spyroflame0487]

Hey I just wanted to say if anyone is in Cleveland we're pretty awesome and welcome to the city.

They put out this neat video.

 

[BFIB]

Not expecting much other than the GOP to fall in line behind Trump like they all pretty much have.

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

Any fist fights or they all good?

My body is ready.

My brain, not so much.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Like anyone is gonna fist fight when they all have a piece on them...

There's no hope left for Cleveland

There's still hope left

Inside the gun free zone convention?

Subbing enough though I'm half-afraid to look.

 

[kevin1025]

There really is a Simpsons gif for everything.

 

[geomon]

I really hope riots and shit don't break out. We really don't need more violence in this country.

Joni Ernst will host a live Instructable to teach America how to castrate a pig.

What episode is this from?

 

[GoldenEye 007]

I first looked at the OP thinking nothing of it. I later came in realizing that's a scene from Half Life 2.

 

[watershed]

Just wanted to say, I love the tag line for the thread title. Amazing.

 

[yanipheonu]

What episode is this from?

The one with Stampy, "Bart Gets an Elephant"

Incidentally, the Democrats are much more angry about an elephant walking in...

This OP works on too many levels. Fantastic job B-Dubs

 

[perfectchaos007]

This is Trump's best opportunity to reel back in the Republicans who are considering leaving the party due to his nomination. He needs to nail his speech

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

They aren't leaving the party, at best they will protest vote one cycle.

Wow. I've seen that episode a thousand times but never remembered that scene. :O

 

[metalslimer]

No one who is vehemently against trump is going to be swayed by a speech.

 

[kevin1025]

It could be one of those gags that is cut for time on the syndicated versions.

It'll either be one of his yelling, incomprehensible speeches, or his methodical, slow-reading teleprompter snore-fest speeches. Either way, nobody wins.

 

[Tubie]

All I can hope for is that this goes through smoothly and nobody gets hurt.

Should be some crazy fucking shit to watch tho, specially Pence trying to twist himself into agreeing with Trump on things they didn't agree in the past.

 

[Plasticine]

Why did the RNC decide to hold this in Cleveland? They have the Browns. That town has suffered enough.

I think Pence will just spend most of his speech outlining his beliefs and emphasizing how much "the ticket" has in common with basic republican policies/principles. Of course he will mention Trump but I don't think he will be selling Trump, I think he will sell himself as a balance to Trump for the good of the ticket and the party.

 

[PantherLotus]

Subbed. Great OP. Be safe Cleveland. If it collapses, there's always St. Louis.

If Pence were smart (and from his career in politics it doesn't lead me to believe he is), he'd try to not mention Trump at all.

 

[adamsappel]

Burn on, big river. Burn on.

 

[davepoobond]

Some sad shits gonna go down and I don't mean in the bathroom

If no one gets hurt or dies it'll be a miracle in my mind

 

[johnsmith]

Wow. I've seen that episode a thousand times but never remembered that scene. :O

Might have been cut for syndication. Lots of stuff was.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Yo nice OP man.

Yep, very interested in what she says. I'm hoping she hitches onto this dumpster fire and goes down with the ship.

Cleveland deserves better this year.

Cleveland deserves better this year.

They got their win. Now balance must be restored.

 

[Sianos]

best of luck to you, cleveland

stay safe, everyone

 

[Measley]

Be safe Cleveland. Us here in Columbus are praying for a safe week.

Damn, at that Kasich burn.

 

[Officerrob]

Looking forward to the shit show on the inside while hoping things are peaceful on the outside

 

[SaviourMK2]

Stay safe Cleveland, I wouldn't trust trump supporters anymore than I would trust a rabid dog to play with kids.

Colbert hijacking the mic on stage before being pushed off. Probably shooting an intro to his show.


Let the circus begin.

Can we rename the OP to "Hungry for Power Games" now? xD

 

[jerry113]

We're talking about a political convention like it's the DMZ or something. What times we live in.

 

[Big Green Anus]

Ah man, no Don King

Lol! Did not know about the manslaughter charge though

 

[Keasar]

Edit: Jesus fucking christ.
I just read on Swedish news site DN.se that security is increased expecting violent protests. 2500 police, 3 military class vehicles, teargas, pepperspray, bulletproof helmets, 10.000 extra pairs of handcuffs, all available prisons and holdings have been emptied and the local court will be open until after midnight. The city has increased its insurance from 9.5 to 50 million dollars.

These are not numbers you should see when NOMINATING a presidential candidate!

These numbers should be a fucking warning about what a major mistake your country is about to do!

God help us all

Imagine red caps on everyone.

 

[Gouty]

I work in a parking garage about 1 block from the convention. Should be interesting.
