What Went Down On Night 2 Of The RNC

Tonight was kind of a grab bag -- the speakers talked up women in the Republican Party, the Trump administration's record on religious liberty and we saw a rather stunning video of a naturalization ceremony at the White House featuring Trump. There were a lot of moments that seemed at odds with the reality of the Trump administration, particularly in light of his extremely restrictive record on legal and illegal immigration. I'm not sure how it will play with viewers, to be honest. There were some reminders that Trump has delivered to some of his strongest supporters, like white evangelical Protestants. But presenting Trump as pro-immigration just seems weirdly off-brand.
