The top 10 problems with the Republicans’ pointless and futile midterm convention. If Trump and his party are feeling optimistic about the gathering in Texas, they probably ought to start lowering their expectations. (Maddow Blog)
It is lovingly (ha, ha) referred to as Trumpapalooza!)
So, the Republicans who have supported the Trump-Iran War, which is still going on for exactly 193 days, won’t be talking about that issue at their HUGE Midterm spectacle. Nor will the Republicans be discussing the fact that it has been 266 days since, by law, all of the names in the Epstein Files were to be released to the public.
One must wonder if the issue of affordability, or, in the case of Trump and the lackluster action on behalf of the Republicans in Congress, the lack of affordability, will be a topic of discussion. Oh yeah, and now the burden of paying for the newly minted tariffs on Canada, with their price increase for Americans- you bet that won’t be mentioned.
Will the Republicans talk about the exact cost to the taxpayer for things like the ballroom, the MMA ring built on the White House grounds, and the actual price of tearing it down and redoing the lawn, or the Trump Arch, and the plans he has for making the public golf courses in DC look like his private clubs?
Perhaps FOX will cover this sham and say that Trump and the Republican Party have made America great again, and provide details about how the Trump Reich has made measles great again, or civil rights great again, or voting rights great again, or American allies great again? As P.T. Barnum once believed, “there is a sucker born every minute,” and tonight and tomorrow night Trump and his billionaire donors will try their darndest to make “suckers” out of most of America, once again!
