Why the hell do we always have our convention first?
Why do we always give up the advantage of being able to frame the Repukes? Why do we always give them the advantage of being the last thing people remember?

1. We don't always have it first
The incumbent party goes last.

3. Besides, it's more of an advantage to see how badly it's going for these psychos
Scary, though it is... what a document in the time capsule of shame. We get to see how BAD it got before we finally got all Democrats involved and said, "enough".

Isn't it insane? This Republican (what?) platform in living color with no shame of talking about "lack of experience" while demonstrating deeply disturbing body language speaks volumes. I wonder how many meth addicted red necks there will procreate tonight. Why, it's the best demonstration of knuckle dragging I've ever witnessed.

2. Cuz we always lose the presidency
Cuz we are always trying to be 'fair' and 'above it' and 'kind' and 'correct'.

Its time to get down in the fucking weeds.
