The entire RNC was a stunning success. The MSM expecting to see wild-eyed, out of control, MAGA cult members instead saw ordinary looking Americans chanting USA. If George W. Bush, Mitt Romney, Dick Cheney, Elizabeth Cheney, Lisa Murkowski, Adam Kinzinger and Paul Ryan were present, they weren’t visible, and no one was bothering to talk to them. People who used to openly despise Trump, like Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz were singing his praises. Whether this is unity around Donald Trump or unity against what Democrats are doing to this country, it was unity. And it showed.
When the Gold Star families of the people killed during the disastrous exit from Afghanistan stood on that stage carrying pictures of their lost loved ones it was an unforgettable moment.

“Joe Biden said the withdrawal from Afghanistan was an extraordinary success,” said Cheryl Juels, the aunt of Marine Corps Sgt. Nicole Gee. “Look at our faces. Look at our pain and our heartbreak. And look at our rage. That was not an extraordinary success.”
Then last night, Donald Trump gave the closing address. Hulk Hogan and Dana White introduced him. They both described Trump as a strong fighter. The contrast with Joe Biden could not be starker.
He started out by talking personally about what happened when he was shot in an attempted assassination. He was humble and acknowledged that it was only through God’s grace that he was still alive. Democratic plans to win this election by convincing people that Trump was an existential threat to Democracy who needed to be destroyed at all costs evaporated on live TV. Now their only hope is to find someone capable of convincing the world that they are a stronger and more capable leader than Donald Trump. Look at Joe Biden. Ok, enough. Look at Kamala Harris. Stop giggling. Now look at the Democratic bench. See anybody? Anyone? Anywhere?
Trump spoke too long, and he rambled too much, but it didn’t matter. Message delivered.
Everyone one, except Joe and Jill Biden, knows it is long past his bedtime. Joe and Jill went up the hill and they aren’t about to slide down willingly anytime soon. Chuck Schumer, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Hakim Jeffries and even Adam Schiff are publicly begging Joe to call it a day. Perhaps, at some point, Joe will give up. But the damage has already been done.
Democrats were determined to destroy Donald Trump at any cost. Well Donald Trump is still standing and they are nowhere to be seen. The bullet that blew away part of Trump’s ear took the last shreds of Democratic hopes for tomorrow with it.
“Victory has a thousand fathers, but defeat is an orphan.”
Look around. The Democratic Party just became the world’s largest orphanage.
