What Went Down During President Trump’s Closing Speech At The RNC

Not to sound old and old-fashioned, but I worked in the Clinton White House, and if anyone had displayed a Clinton-Gore ’96 campaign poster at work, that would have been considered a fireable offense. So watching Trump give this acceptance speech from the White House is throwing me.

The crowd doesn’t seem to appreciate trolling the press as much as Trump does. They are chanting “four more years” instead of “12 more years.”

Ivanka Trump has reinforced the theme that her father is not a conventional politician. And in a key way, she’s right: This convention has advanced a set of arguments that seem a bit contradictory at times. In one moment, the RNC has argued that disorder and crime are rampant in U.S. cities, and in another moment they argue that Trump isn’t responsible for it.
