Live CCF Commentary on the RNC 2024

[Work4Peanuts]

He finished before midnight. I'm surprised!

 

[Eric Nicholas]

President Trump made a vigorous speech. Calm. Humble. Bold. Humorous. And then, he increasingly made a return to form as time went on until he arrived squarely there.

Strap yourselves in for the media onslaught of dishonest shenanigans and charges regarding this convention. We'll hear all the usual buzzwords: Dog-whistling. Invasion. Temperature. Climate. Existential threat. Criminal. Felon. A threat to our blah blah blah.

I won't at all be surprised if they accuse him of faking the trauma from his assassination attempt.

It was fun hanging out with you all here!

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

Obligatory balloon drop . . . I hate them . . . security nightmare . . . and all that latex [sigh]

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

He finished before midnight. I'm surprised!

Depends on the timezone

 

[Eric Nicholas]

I wanna be there so bad with a handful of needles! Popppppp!

 

[Eric Nicholas]

Okay, I wasn't expecting opera to close the night... Especially since Mr. Greenwood is in the vicinity...

 

[Work4Peanuts]

Finishing with "Nessun Dorma." I'm dying over here y'all.

ETA: Nessun Dorma translates to "None Shall Sleep."

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

Poor President Trump. He's so uncomfortable standing on stage without any barrier. It's going to take him awhile, and the stress and demands of the campaign are going to make it harder and take longer Melania's scared

 

[Eric Nicholas]

Finishing with "Nessun Dorma." I'm dying over here y'all.

I don't even know what this is, but I'm laughing with you!

 

[Work4Peanuts]

I don't even know what this is, but I'm laughing with you!

Added something above.

 

[Eric Nicholas]

Added something above.

Brilliant!

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

He needs a break. He was unhappy about something just now [sigh]

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

Balloons at his right and front bothering him. Motion, unpredictability, and/or reflections/shifting reflections

 

[Eric Nicholas]

I'm not going to lie; I'd love to go to one of those conventions with you all and get on that big screen with big rapture shirts on right in front of John Rich if he attends. I'm a child. Leave me be.

 

[Work4Peanuts]

Good night!

 

[Eric Nicholas]

Good night!

Good night! It was fun. You all take care. Great thread!

 

[Eric Nicholas]

There's more?!?!

Let's hope this last benediction doesn't get too pagan...

 

[Margery]

God bless you Americans! I'm breathing a sigh of relief seeing it go well. Melania looked good, but a couple of times the stress was obvious.

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

He's going to have dreams tonight . . . balloons, popping balloons, morphing into the shooting/shots the other day, people's faces in the balloons. Etc.

Balloons can be really hard on someone with PTSD. Until he or she has had balloon dreams, he or she doesn't know to wake up.. Pretty common type/focus of nightmares among some types of PTSD sufferers and those with certain types of experiences

 

[Eric Nicholas]

Bit of an awkward end there. That will go up on late night TV. Sad.
