Clevaland, WTF!

GOP operatives dread Trump convention

‘This ship can sink without me as a passenger,’ said one party strategist.

Each presidential election year, Republicans eagerly await their national convention — a four-day celebration that draws thousands of GOP operatives, donors and lobbyists who are ready to party.

This year — the year of Trump — it’s anything but a party.

Many GOP regulars are skipping Cleveland entirely. (“I would rather attend the public hanging of a good friend,” says Will Ritter, an up-and-coming Republican digital strategist who worked on the three previous conventions.) And among those who are making the trek, there’s an overwhelming sense it won’t be fun at all. At a time when many Republicans are deeply dissatisfied with their nominee, pessimistic about their prospects for victory in the fall and alarmed about the direction of their party, there’s a reluctance about attending the convention more typically reserved for going to the DMV, being summoned for jury duty or undergoing a root canal.

Some good quotes here. Sounds like Trump better bring hookers and blow to soothe the savage Rethuglicans!

Clevaland, WTF is right. It's spelled "Cleveland."

Guy it was named after had "a"s in his surname.

Also, thread title was my reaction when Cavs allowed Lebron back, let alone signed him again.

Not sure if these quotes are in the article but one Republican elected official said he would be "watching dumpster fires" rather than going to the convention while another said he had to mow the lawn.

America is the name of the ship.

America is the name of the ship.

Is that the "U. S. America" or the "U. S. S. America" (the second "S" stands either for "Sorry", "Screwed", or "Screwed-up")?

It's U. S. S., which stands for United States Ship.

Cleveland's strip clubs are ready for the arrival of their most avid fans.

According to one strip-club trade group, Republicans tend to spend three times more than their Democratic counterparts at such establishments.

I had 2 maternal Uncles who spent time in the Navy. (One is just this month moving from a house where he built his own ship in the garage.)

That may be what it stood for, but not any more.

Also, not surprised GOP spend more... Why they're known as "Grand (Spend it on hookers) Old (need help getting/keeping it up) Party", plus this year's candidate proves the head they think with is not above the waist.
