What Went Down On Night 2 Of The RNC

Kaleigh, exactly.

The silent majority, Julia!

I agree with Shom about the emphasis on Trump’s character. But the comment just now about Trump caring for the downtrodden has a larger significance for the night’s messaging. It fits with the theme of grievance — cancel culture, accusations of racism and condescension from the left. It’s not just about highlighting the president and making the point that he cares about people: It’s about the idea that Trump speaks for those neglected by others in the political system, especially Democrats.
