Man, this Alvin Bragg hit from an angry mother of a veteran is just brutal, and so, so well deserved.
Impossible not to be moved by the mom describing her son’s fentanyl overdose.
Out of context RNC speaker lines: “Do you know what the smell of rotting flesh smells like?”
“Do you know what rotting flesh smells like? The people of my city do.” Voter from Philly is extremely Philly.
Cotton focused on immigration, an area of agreement, and steered clear of foreign policy, where he has a lot of differences with the ticket.
Tom Cotton’s talents were not fully utilized in that speech.
Tom Cotton doing a contrast of a happy immigrant with a green card becoming a citizen and illegal entrants. As usual, Republican conventions may offer red meat on illegal immigration, but they always call the party back to remember the inspiring story of immigrants to America (so long as they come legally).
I’m generally inclined to like the content of any given Tom Cotton speech, but I have difficulty explaining to people that one of the reasons why is that when he stands behind a podium it feels like receiving a lecture from Sam the Eagle of the Muppets.
DeSantis again off-message with this ticket quoting Reagan’s “tear down this wall” speech. A reminder of what might have been.
Trump tilts his head skeptically when DeSantis goes into his routine about turning Florida red.
