Ted Cruz balls too hard, the authorities want to fine him

Would be refreshing to see Cruz grow a pair and go off-script to give a speech he actually wants to. Here's to hoping there's fuckery!

Called it

Hillary Clinton began the month of July with $44 million cash on hand (more than 2X Trump). https://t.co/JrqegeZ2KB

Chuck Todd called this convention a disaster.

HAHAHAHAHA.

Since every night of the RNC has had something really awfully happen so far I bet you something awful will happen during trump's speech or before it that derails his big moment tommorrow.

Yeah, caught me off guard being that blunt.

When the only good thing they could come up with was "It built sympathy for Trump"

bwhaha

Interesting note, apparently he didn't go off script, "vote your conscience" was in his prepared remarks. And they let him on anyway.

1. Trump goes off script for a 45 minute stream of concisousness

2. Melania divorces him onstage for speechgate

3. He drops Pence, chooses Chrisite

Ted Cruz is the #1 trending item worldwide right now on Twitter.

Secretary of the Status Quo is #10 globally, with about 50% of tweets some variant of "that's cool!" and the other 50% mocking it as a sad insult.

I am giddy as fuck right now. Almost tempted to drink some whiskey!

Wednesdays are for tequila. Duh. (Disclaimer: This was only true in college. 15 years ago. In my dorm specifically.)

Can trump actually save this convention with a good speech or is it too late?

 

[Kusagari]

Honestly, unless he does something completely insane I doubt even Trump can steal the headlines from this.

The talking point from this entire convention is going to be Ted fucking Cruz, which is a disaster.

 

[Suikoguy]

He can't provide a good scripted speech. Chances of him giving a coherent non-scripted speech is near 0.

So no.

Oh god no. This thing is done.

“Ted Cruz has to wake up to the fact that he is not Reagan, he’s Nixon,” said Roger J. Stone, Mr. Trump’s longtime adviser, who said he did not approve of the decision to let Mr. Cruz speak.

Now hold on a minute, I thought Trump was supposed to be Nixon in this telling.

Ted's face right now

Is...is that happy? Or gassy? I DON'T KNOW

I'm thinking something like a bunch of never trump delegates and protestors sneaking into the room during trump's speech and bashing him really badly.There are other things that may happen tommorrow that are just as bad but I rather not talk about them right now.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

I bet Ted crop-dusted his way on and off stage.

 

[Diablos]

Sigh. GOP going all in on the "what difference does it make" line being taken out of context. Fuckers. Hillary you better defend yourself.

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 56s56 seconds ago

Wow, Ted Cruz got booed off the stage, didn't honor the pledge! I saw his speech two hours early but let him speak anyway. No big deal!

IT STARTS

 

[metalslimer]

Haha I just realized that Trump moving the New York delegation to the front made the boos even more obvious

Let's ask Diablos

Noo I have work tomorrow.

 

[Diablos]

I love how the screen cut out as soon as Cruz went off path with his speech. Just beautiful.

 

[VendettaRed07]

What the hell was he thinking.

He must have thought he was introducing his daughter

They need a good commercial that deals with this as soon as it shows up. It's something completely taken out of context. I guess they could have an ad that shows the GOP using it out of context and showing they're lying and then show the clip of what she said and then quickly talk about what she did as SoS around that situation.

[User 463088]

Trump's people are now saying no one was booing anything. They were cheering when Trump entered. Even though Trump just tweeted people were booing.

This fucking campaign.....

Yeah, even I don't think it will happen, lol.
He seems pretty happy with the progress he made over the rather pointless Dem platform.

Some of his delegates might try some shit but he'll do his part for Queen and country.

Yeah. An ad is vital. Don't get swiftboated over this Hilldawg

 

[User 463088]

The "What difference does it make" thing has been used for 3 years now by the right. It's not new.

 

[teiresias]

I love how MSNBC is framing the Cruz thing as an inability for Trump to negotiate properly.

nooooooo RIP holmes

who will post sassy gifs tho

In all the craziness I almost forgot about Eileen Collins going off script

Don't do it! Suicide isn't the answer.

Total fail of a convention. I'm downgrading my rating from 4 clownshoes to 3 clownshoes out of 10.

It's a very good point, Trump had all the leverage, he didn't need Cruz. Why let him do this?

This is what Ted would want.

With any luck his speech will be the final nail in the coffin for this catastrophe.
