    Despite the high cost of living, it's still very popular.

    Trump is a builder. Only he can build a big tent and then fleece everyone in the process.

    I cut the cable 4 years ago and refused to buy an antenna for local channels. Didn't see last week and won't see this week which means I can spend quality time in my wood shop.

    As you noted big tent is some ancient stuff, we now live in the time of the big wall.
    We may not even need to get those jobs back from China - with such a great wall there may be more than enough jobs to cover everybody who has had theirs taken away by the Clintons and Obama.

    I have it on good authority, after the wall is built he will build a great Ark and put two of everything on it (especially his money) that way we will be prepared for what's coming.

    I thought the convention lacked a little polish, but that's to be expected from someone coming in from the outside.

    But when we have so much perceived disconnect from the elite political class to everyday people, it's not surprising. Donald Trump is a manifestation, a lightning rod for something that has been growing for years, and as the saying goes, it's much easier for the mob to get a new elite than it is for the elite to get a new mob.

    Is this what you are asking about? I never heard of it.

    I be honest with the thread title of 'Republican National Convention' and after the first few posts it looked like flame bait to me.
