Support NeoGAF

[ColdPizza]

lol

 

[Velcro Fly]

This is pretty much a 1 hour speech from Hollywood Hogan and the nWo, and I'm just waiting for Sting with a baseball bat to descend from the rafters and end this nonsense.

Where is Ted Cruz

 

[mreddie]

CHINA CHINA CHINA

 

[Joe Molotov]

South Korea is destroying our country!

 

[haxamin]

TPP? SO DOES PENCE

 

[Dan]

You're just going to tell companies "NO YOU CAN'T LEAVE."

?

This whole speech is him saying he'll be a dictator. He will directly enforce law and order on every aspect of the country.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

But your vote still goes to a platform that tries to pass anti-gay laws. You can say are for gay rights, but your vote says otherwise so who gives a shit what you say you are for. It's just to make yourself feel better about voting for your own self interests.

When it's not about bigotry, it's about greed and being anti-poor. That's the party

 

[Wilsongt]

Not a whole lot of energy in that crowd. What gives?

Past their bedtimes.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

I think he might win...

A great quote from Suits was when one of the main characters said about opening statements in Court: 'Opening statements are just like free throws. They're easy because no one is playing defense'

The same applies to a convention speech by the nominee.

 

[starmud]

I get taking advantage of the free air time but this speech is going on way too long

 

[RoKKeR]

Trump is sniffing glue with his manufacturing stuff. No company will manufacture their goods in America these days, and if they do it'll be overwhelmingly machine-based.

 

[TheOohChild]

I don't think Gaffers should take away from that moment. It's great to be cynical against Republicans, but that was the first honest moment where a GOP Presidential candidate actually made an appeal for other Republicans to be more welcoming to the LGBTQ community. Inspite of everything else related to Trump, that is a worthwhile step in American progress.

You can think it's insincere, but don't scoff at it just because Trump is a Republican and a fucking moron.

It saw it more as an appeal to end terrorism and extending the scare mongering to gay people.

 

[Frustrated_me]

You are never going to stop illegal immigrants from entering the US, you don't get to just say it without laying out a plan. A wall isn't a plan.

I don't think building a wall is the solution. Trump is incredibly off on that, and he knows it.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

His own VP supports TPP

 

[Hale-XF11]

His tiny hands are creeping me out.

 

[petethepanda]

I love how he even puts his "dirty 'furriner" spin on fucking South Korea.

 

[TopDreg]

Yeah, fuck those East Asian countries! All minorities are bad! All!

 

[GoldenEye 007]

But Trump's companies are outsource central?

 

[Sianos]

I'm just surprised that we're not even hearing any crazy, fearmonging solutions to all the shit this base is afraid of. It's just... nothing. He's listing stuff they already feel and know, and offering nothing. I referred to Trump as an empty suit before this speech, and now that almost feels like an understatement.

They think that building a wall and kicking out the Muslims and the "illegal" and we totally swear only the "illegal" immigrants ARE the solutions. Which I find the scariest of all.

 

[Owzers]

TPP? SO DOES PENCE

That's okay.

 

[Nokagi]

Even the family is sick of this bullshit.

 

[Mr Swine]

So is Trump going to make wages almost non existent when he takes back the jobs from foreign countries? Are people really going to work for less than what Chinese people are doing now?

 

[Slurpy2k20]

THe entirety of anyone voting for Trump is. They are worthless ignorant bigots who need to have any vestige of influence removed from their grip. Anyone who has watched Trump's rise and has decided it is OK to vote for this authoritarian sociopath is now standing and being counted. They will be held accountable. No quarter for these sick traitors.

Sounds harsh, but completely on point. Anyone who supports Trump is a piece of trash human being. The guy has shown is true colors and articulated his sick views ad-nauseum. A decent human being wouldn't support those views and statements, so nobody who votes for Trump is a decent human being, even if they think or pretend that they are. Deep down, they are pieces of shit.

 

[RC]

South Korea is destroying our country!

Haha, I thought I misheard him

 

[Godzilla's Left Toe]

So has your VP

He's allowed to make mistake.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Fuck racists.

I'm not against further funding to protect borders, no matter the current trend with them entering or leaving.

So what's the plan? Funding to do what exactly?

 

[JeTmAn81]

You do understand people have voted Republican all their life don't care about any of that right? (Half the country or less than half)What do you suggest with this quartering and being held accountable? That sounds pretty damn sick if you ask me.

That's actually the mind-boggling thing. You can't just chalk Trump voters up as all being bigots and racists and whatever. There are just too many Trumpers for them to all fit into these marginal groups. This is mainstream, and whether GAF believes it or not, racism isn't ok in the mainstream. So why do these people still vote Trump? Because they can't stand to vote for Hillary.

 

[gutter_trash]

Republicans are being hypocritical here, they support TPP

but Trump is going nativst protectionist for cheap votes

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

The finger thing means money!

 

[Lkr]

how the fuck is this going on still?

 

[Xe4]

That's okay.

He can make mistakes, Hillary can't.

 

[Smiley90]

:lol

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

His own VP supports TPP

"I don't care."

 

[StoOgE]

Wants to fight Chinese influence

Wants to end trade deals with other Asian nations.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

This seems a little heavy on the gloom and doom, even for an GOP speech. Don't they usually go for something more optimistic during the RNC?

 

[Machina]

Trump is an Erdogan plot

 

[fallengorn]

Even the crowd is getting tired. Low energy.

 

[buttery fistful]

cheaters beware!

 

[BlastProcessing]

Seriously, he has gone from Cheeto to Flamin' Hot Cheeto.

 

[eyeball_kid]

Bush Sr. was also for NAFTA, and Bush Jr. helped get China into the WTO. Just sayin'

 

[DopeyFish]

Republicans are being hypocritical here, they support TPP

but Trump is going nativst protectionist for cheap votes

it's like the political equivalent of a frame trap

 

[RoKKeR]

That's okay.

"I don't care."

 

[GoldenEye 007]

But what if Congress makes you lol?

 

[gimmmick]

Let's make a deal, sounds like a reality show Trump would put out

 

[mreddie]

I WILL MAKE CHINA CARE!

 

[Zeeman]

We're too stupid and lazy to understand trade agreements!

 

[Get'sMad]

yeah this has gone on waaay too long

 

[Ferrio]

"VAC"

lol

 

[Phreaker]

STOP YELLING

 

[commedieu]

Fuck me. This is a good baseless speech.
