"It’s origin and purpose still a total mystery.”I'm getting a lot of requests about this, so let me answer here for y'all. What would it look like for Trump to attempt to unify the nation tonight?

Trump’s former caddie is speaking at the RNC to vouch for his golf skills: “Donald Trump is one hell of a golfer … Donald Trump - 21 Club Championships. Joe Biden - 0.” pic.twitter.com/EBoivsg5Pl

Damning with faint praise. But it had to be better than Trump’s caddie.Throw your TV away. https://t.co/GnhIwZn0m2

Lucky me, too.I didn't watch the debate or Trump's RNC speech so my life is 3 hours better than you losers.

Get ready.Tapper: I hope this doesn't sound harsh, but then it pretty much became the kind of speech generally hear from Donald Trump rallies.. very much the same Donald Trump that we are used to pic.twitter.com/hIqHMzdh84

Trump points at Scott Walker, calls him “governor,” and tells him he is doing a “very nice job.”
— MeidasTouch (@MeidasTouch) July 19, 2024
But Walker has not been governor since 2019. The current governor is Democrat Tony Evers. pic.twitter.com/IiYwQZtGhp

THE REVIEWS ARE IN!Not sure a presidential nominating speech has ever included an extended riff where the nominee imagines that he is the leader of a central american country and suggests that if he were he would empty the jails and send all prisoners to America.

* He is the first convicted felon ever nominated by a major political party, the first found liable for sexual abuse and business fraud and the first whose business was convicted of criminal tax fraud.

* He is the first nominated just days after a failed assassination attempt.… https://t.co/1cljOZswIo
I don’t think we’ve ever had a nomination acceptance speech where the nominee talks about how great it is that a judge dismissed his case

This is a stunningly, crushingly stupid speech.
— Mike Murphy (@murphymike) July 19, 2024
This speech is a pathetic, incoherent mess from a man who is clearly diminished and every journalist who criticized Biden’s debate performance needs to say that

I wrote a book about campaign speechwriting. I’ve read every acceptance speech delivered at a national convention.

This is hands down the worst I’ve heard and it’s not remotely close.

You can see a lot of concerned faces in the RNC crowd right now. Definitely a different energy from an hour ago. I think some people are going, "Uh...what's happening."
— Wajahat Ali (@WajahatAli) July 19, 2024
Maybe the Democrats don’t need to replace their candidate, or maybe they could just run any candidate they want, as long as they just take this nomination speech and run it every evening at full length

THE CROWD LOVED IT!Trump's speech was, objectively, the single worst convention acceptance speech in modern history.
— Rick Wilson (@TheRickWilson) July 19, 2024
It was a ramblefuck disaster from start to its long-delayed finish, and nothing is going to make it better.
You know. I know it. LaCivita and Wiles know it.
Utter disaster.
By the end of this speech Trumps ear was wishing it’d been shot.

He’s the same guy, but more boring somehow
Amazing feat to lose the room at your own nominating convention.
