Title: RNC
Post by: steve dave on July 13, 2016, 10:14:22 AM
The platform for this thing has gone off the rails for any social moderate/liberal conservatives. Is this a play to placate the religious right?

therapy the gay away
pron
"traditional marriage" and child raising
"man-made law must be consistent with God-given, natural rights"
bible in public schools "indispensable for the development of an educated citizenry"
no women in combat roles

did they just hand the keys to cruz as the also ran?

our government is not founded on religious principles, only the freedom to practice, or not, as you see fit.

People that don't believe in the Judeo Christian God take issue with it.

I think moderate people look at God-given and natural as basically saying the same thing.  However, some people look at that as a literal interpretation of the Christian Bible, and that scares the crap out of people that don't believe in the Christian Bible.

North Carolina delegate Mary Frances Forrester successfully proposed the amendment in a subcommittee of the platform committee Monday morning.

"The internet must not become a safe haven for predators," the provision states. "Pornography, with its harmful effects, especially on children, has become a public health crisis that is destroying the life of millions. We encourage states to continue to fight this public menace and pledge our commitment to children's safety and well-being. We applaud the social networking sites that bar sex offenders from participation. We urge energetic prosecution of child pornography which closely linked to human trafficking."

I guess you missed the previous posts then SD.   In one if not several it was noted that ProgLibs are routinely saying that Porn is outright subjugation and violence against women.   So it would seem strange that ProgLibs would be against a platform that sought to lesson the availability of that medium in our society.    That segues perfectly into the noted long term mistreatment of women by the Clinton's.   Bill as a seemingly predatory philanderer and Hillary as a destroyer of women who came forward to bring Bill's predatory nature to light.   

So yes, face of relevancy is absolutely correct.   Your monolithic thinking is, in a word:  Tedious

I googled 2016 GOP Platform and got links to a bunch of liberal media/blog psychobabble describing the platform as "anti-LGTB" (aren't there several more letters now?) - but didn't find a link to the document itself.

But if the platform takes a strong stance against killing babies, government mandates against religious institutions (including Obamacare and the definition of marriage), and allowing the mentally-ill to use the locker rooms and restrooms of opposite genders, that sounds good to me. But of course, I'm just one of those bigoted "social conservatives."

Enjoy your butthurt. Vote for the felon if you find this so offensive.

Please, I've never said trump is running a good campaign or has a coherent message, in fact I've said the opposite.  I've never said I like him or would vote for him. That doesn't make what he's doing any less interesting. And it's worth noting he's made no apparent to cure all of his so-called shortcomings. I think that is intentional.

What seems apparent to me is that the more he's at the forefront, the better he polls, regardless of why he's at the forefront. Perhaps this is because at least one thing he's said, no matter how outrageous, has resonated with an "independent" voter, they hit the click bait, read about it, and decided he's their guy, in spite of a bunch of other crap they didn't read about that pundits think is important or damning.

I don't think having a clear consistent message, aka politics 101, really is all that important anymore.  B.o. didn't, Bernie didnt. Trump doesnt. It seems to be all about social media stupidity and sound bites, at least with the morons- who make up 90% of the electorate, and Trump rules at that. Just like b.o. did.

I've seen enough tho. These things used to be rowdier, when we had a candidate we backed. This crowd is awkward.

you are right.  I have thought the crowd was very reserved.  I think W. was so incredibly popular among Republicans it is hard to compare, but I think that Romney/Ryan got a lot more love than this.  Palin was a rockstar at the RNC in 2008.

Quote
Winners

* Donald Trump Jr.: Trump's eldest son took on a bigger challenge than the family members who spoke before him to the convention crowd: He didn't just play it safe with a testament to his dad being a good guy and then beat a retreat. He delivered a broader address that not only cast his dad effectively as someone willing to get his hands dirty in pursuit of business success but also went after Hillary Clinton as an out-of-touch bureaucrat who is out of her depth.  (I found Don Jr.'s retelling of his dad's affection for and association with blue collar workers particularly effective.) This was a big speech with a high degree of difficulty. And Don Jr. stuck the landing.

Cruz is twisting the knife in to Trump:

"Colorado different than Texas, but follows up with Iowa different than New York."

Hmmm....who won the Iowa caucus again?

He also had a line about "rich enough to send kids to whatever school they choose like Obama and Clinton."  The Trump kids have specifically mentioned school choice with the obvious acknowledgement that they went to the best private schools money could buy.

Cruz is shamelessly setting himself up for 2020, and much more effectively than Christie did in 2012 because he is actually speaking about the party's vision/issues, not his own accomplishments.

Delegates practically booed an ultraconservative United States senator off the stage, not so much for what he said but for what he refused to say. It should not have been a surprise — Cruz never promised to endorse Trump, and the convention staff obviously knew from his prepared text that he would not do so — but Cruz’s decision, coming after more conciliatory speeches by other failed candidates, was clearly seen by delegates as a raised fist in opposition to their smiley-faced unity.

people are letting the audience reaction color the content of cruz's speech.

Can someone explain to me why the Trump people allowed Cruz to talk tonight? They knew Cruz wasn’t going to endorse Trump. They — and we — had Cruz’s prepared remarks. Did Trump’s people think that Cruz was going to have a change of heart? I’m not sure why the Trump campaign would bank on that. There are Cruz’s ideological disagreements with Trump, but it’s also worth remembering that Trump intimated that Cruz’s father was involved in the John F. Kennedy assassination and attacked Cruz’s wife.

So, why give Cruz a prime-time speaking slot?

No, everyone understood beforehand that "vote your conscience" means "I AM NOT ENDORSING TRUMP! SUCK IT!" No one thought he would say something like that.

Someone on MSNBC said the RNC expected Cruz to say something to the effect of how Trump should be elected. I also read that the RNC told Cruz that they would trash him afterward in the media if he did not endorse Trump in his speech.

Okay, not everyone. They definitely should have consulted any of the delegates, anyone on cable news, or KK.

This story will get reported like hell, so no point speculating.  If Trump really went in there just thinking he could alpha Cruz in to an endorsement with the threat of booing, it is so LOL.

There is literally no one else of note that holds that view.  Not even Newt Gingrich who ad-libbed a tourniquet on Trump's legs that had been chopped off at the knees.

people are letting the audience reaction color the content of cruz's speech.

he read his remarks very nearly as written.  if you think his speech was an open attack on trump, you need to explain why trump's campaign signed off on it.


btw, silver tweeted that he felt cruz's pauses gave the delivered speech a meaning unclear from the written speech.  seems like giving pausing a lot of credit, to me.

Again, I think the story of that will get reported.  I don't know whether there was an understanding that Cruz would endorse in a more substantive way or not.  There is early reporting that the Trump campaign organized the New York delegation booing.  If that was the totality of the gameplan, that is crazy.

“I think he’ll say something, he’ll give a sign of where he is on Donald Trump that will be pleasing to the Trump campaign and to Republicans,” Donald Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort says about Sen. Ted Cruz at news conference during Republican National Convention in Cleveland.

“We’ve been talking back and forth about what the senator wants to say. I’ll see a copy of the speech later this morning because he’s still working on it”

Possibilities (most likely to least likely):

1) They got some sort of cryptic/weak assurance from Cruz, ran with it, had the "boo" and "we'll ruin you" as their leverage and totally misread the situation

2) They got no assurances, had the text, were somehow still surprised, scrambled the booing

3) Cruz lied to them

The real question is why the hell they thought that Cruz's "pledge" was sufficient to invite him in the first place.

Ken Cuccinelli, president of the Senate Conservatives Fund, escorted Cruz's wife, Heidi Cruz, out of the room, telling ABC News that Trump supporters were approaching her confrontationally and the atmosphere had become too "volatile."

Quote
Sources with the RNC say @Tedcruz speech was 'classless.'

Quote
Sources also told CNN’s Dana Bash that a state Republican Party chair reacted to Cruz so angrily after the speech that he had to be physically restrained.

Quote
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie shared similar sentiments, telling Bash, "It was an awful, selfish speech."

I'm pretty sure none of you actually watched Ted's speech. Let me explain how this works: the media is focusing on the boorish behavior of some pro-Trump delegates who were unhappy that Ted didn't give an explicit endorsement, which is fits the media playbook of focusing on any "controversy" to distract from the substance of the speeches and thereby minimize Trump's convention bounce. By contrast, the coverage of the DNC will be a love fest to maximize Hillary's bounce (to the extent a dead fish dropped from a window bounces). The overwhelmingly liberal journobloc puts their thumbs on the scales every election. The impact is hard to quantify, but it is very much real.

I would encourage you to broaden your horizons and actually watch the speech. It was amazing from start to finish. He was gracious to Trump, congratulating him on winning the nomination, and spoke passionately about conservative principles - chiefly among them freedom and the rule of law.

I watched the speech live, on CSPAN.  I don't know if we watched the same speech.

"vote your conscience" was the specific language that pro-Cruz/Never Trump delegates were trying to get inserted in to the rules to throw the convention to Cruz on the floor.  "vote your conscience" is a phrase that is used when politicians vote against a party position that is going to pass but is repugnant to a minority of the party ideologically.

Cruz might as well have been wearing a toga and brought a knife, because he just went old school Senator on Trump.

Dear xxxx,

Our country is facing enormous challenges, and it's more important now than ever that we conservatives defend the principles in which we all believe.
 
That's why tonight I'm honored to have the chance to speak at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland at 8:45 pm CT -- and I hope you'll tune in to watch my speech. You'll be able to watch it broadcast on TV or the livestream will be available here.

(https://ci6.googleusercontent.com/proxy/3M4-obh-p6MD4h8VzDxwHcecniI9LTleoRT08R3i0cKB37oKqLuIqf_MJHfwK9jewDo7mB6EVwlQUJTcYYAWGWKX8Utq8NmZqlCDujxtgGmMz1r9ESO1=s0-d-e1-ft#https://www.tedcruz.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/RNC_Email2.png)
 

 
I'm looking forward to the opportunity to thank our nearly 600 delegates, roughly 8 million voters nationwide, and the over 326,000 volunteers who poured their heart, soul, blood, and energy into our campaign as well as the chance to lay out a vision for what we as Americans — what we as conservatives — believe and where we go forward from here.
 
You won't want to miss this speech -- I hope you'll watch TONIGHT at 8:45 pm CT!

For liberty,
Ted Cruz
Ted Cruz

A lot of claimed moderates on this board, seem to get a really good chuckle at the GOP's expense 24/7, but remain silent on the other side. I don't think many of you are as moderate as you think.

Name names!
Dickstone and Mocat are the main characters. I've always thought you were lib for some reason. SD from time to time. I just don't see a lot of bumping of the threads, on the other side of the line.  :th_twocents:

There will be a crap load of stupid crap to laugh about at the DNC. It's just that nobody really cares to watch it. I'm 100% the media coverage of it will reflect that, but also reflect their very large bias.

The medias coverage of the rnc, insofar as I've seen, has been devoid of substance and more akin to a Snapchat conversation.

I didn't watch any the rnc and don't plan to watch the dnc.

I'm really curious about how long Trump will talk. He won't/can't stay on script and otherwise doesn't have a hell of a lot to say.

And how well might a speech like he gave at his campaign rallies go over on TV? Would it attract swing voters? Would it repel them?
Title: Re: RNC

the guy who has to be most pissed about all of this has to be poor lindsey graham.  he's been the most vocal, open and consistent antitrumpite since forever and on paper his denouncing of trump and refusal to attend the convention is a stronger repudiation than cruz's nuanced, vetted speech.  yet cruz is getting all of the attention and will likely go down in history as having led the opposition to trump.

“I think he’ll say something, he’ll give a sign of where he is on Donald Trump that will be pleasing to the Trump campaign and to Republicans,” Donald Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort says about Sen. Ted Cruz at news conference during Republican National Convention in Cleveland.

“We’ve been talking back and forth about what the senator wants to say. I’ll see a copy of the speech later this morning because he’s still working on it”

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/trackers/2016-07-20/manafort-says-he-expects-cruz-speech-to-please-trump-camp-gop

Possibilities (most likely to least likely):

1) They got some sort of cryptic/weak assurance from Cruz, ran with it, had the "boo" and "we'll ruin you" as their leverage and totally misread the situation

2) They got no assurances, had the text, were somehow still surprised, scrambled the booing

3) Cruz lied to them

The real question is why the hell they thought that Cruz's "pledge" was sufficient to invite him in the first place.

Looks like a combo of 1 and 2.  I think this is Dunning-Kruger effect meets Trump's razor.

so weird.

Post by: puniraptor on July 21, 2016, 03:48:07 PM
I'm pretty sure none of you actually watched Ted's speech. Let me explain how this works: the media is focusing on the boorish behavior of some pro-Trump delegates who were unhappy that Ted didn't give an explicit endorsement, which is fits the media playbook of focusing on any "controversy" to distract from the substance of the speeches and thereby minimize Trump's convention bounce. By contrast, the coverage of the DNC will be a love fest to maximize Hillary's bounce (to the extent a dead fish dropped from a window bounces). The overwhelmingly liberal journobloc puts their thumbs on the scales every election. The impact is hard to quantify, but it is very much real.

I would encourage you to broaden your horizons and actually watch the speech. It was amazing from start to finish. He was gracious to Trump, congratulating him on winning the nomination, and spoke passionately about conservative principles - chiefly among them freedom and the rule of law.
Dude.

Title: Re: RNC
Post by: chum1 on July 21, 2016, 04:04:14 PM
Something I heard on TV sourced from a member of Trump's campaign was that the reason Trump decided to walk out during Cruz's speech was to be the bigger man and save Cruz from all of the booing in spite of receiving no endorsement. It happened pretty much immediately afterward and I got the impression that this was the pre-planned response in case Cruz did not endorse Trump. If so, it really seems like Trump thought he could make Cruz speaking a win-win situation.
Title: Re: RNC
Post by: catastrophe on July 21, 2016, 04:48:34 PM
Trump honestly doesn't care about any of this as long as the media is talking about him. I'm sure he would rather the RNC be a much bigger train wreck than it is at this point.

Quote
there are more than 20 times the proportion of black speakers as black delegates. One theory holds that since Trump is consistently racially controversial, the black speakers have a function of making the majority of delegates feel they cannot be racially regressive if the speaker roster is so diverse. Sort of a version of the “some of my best friends are black” theory.

I've gotta hand it to Trump, that was a pitch perfect speech for the voters in the states he needs to win. I think it was brutally effective. Brutally long, too, but it was so packed I doubt it will matter. Also brutal to Hillary. Savaged her much more effectively than I thought he was capable of.

Would have been much better if it didn't seem so rambling/pandering. The Bernie angle is a good one that could get lost. Trump clearly wants to make a play for the disenfranchised Bernie supporters.

This will be a very depressing election, that I can tell you.

So much love from him. Sure he's narcissistic and loves himself, but he also loves everyone else, and doesn't view himself as above others. People just default think he's arrogant because of his high self love. He's also super persuasive so all I wrote before might be false. But reading first-hand interactions with him, he really makes everyone feel loved. Did I say the word love enough? It's a love-fest folks. :love:

I am pretty sure that all politicians have to have some level of narcissist to run for office, but Don may have the highest narcissistic tendencies of any politician I have paid attention to.

pubs totally want a police state

Enforcing existing laws and protecting leo's = police state; ignoring laws that don't further a leftist political agenda, seizing assets and harrassing citizens involved in unfavored businesses or charitable organizations without due process of the law = not a police state.

That is a hilariously asinine statement.  Lots of pubs mistaking arrogance and narcissism for power and telling it like it is.  The man doesn't even want to perform the job.  He wants to delegate it to his VP.  He simply wants the title.
