it going to be hateapalooza? I'm pretty sure there's no way to keep the hate and racism of the tea party under wraps for that long. Of course, the MSM will aid the repubs in trying to cover it up, but still boozed up haters are going to vocalize their hate. They actually have given Donald Trump a platform. I expect some ugly stuff to come out- not that that's bad for dems, even if if it is bad for the country.
What do you think? Can the repubs avoid the convention looking like a hatefest?

(85,986 posts)Thing is, they don't know from hate. It's so ingrained, and most of these folks are so insulated, that they have few self-restraints on what they say and do. I think you can count on a hateapalooza.

It wouldn't surprise me at all.
Trump has been almost giddy with excitement each time he 'hints' at the surprise he is preparing for the Regressive convention.

15 seconds
30 seconds
45 seconds
60 seconds
No way it's going to be longer than a minute imho.
* = in no way are the old white teabilly f*cksticks gonna allow a girl to talk and stuff to open their hate fest convention.

Not every one shares their twisted ideology.
