No party platform and a bizarre list of speakers

We fight, We win, Am Yisrael Chai
Just after 9pm, his campaign blasted out a press release to reporters announcing his proposed agenda, described as “Fighting for You”.


Consisting of a list of bullet points and nothing more, some of the goals laid out in his “Fighting for You” agenda are concessions to current events or allusions to the President’s stump speeches, such as calls to “Teach American Exceptionalism” in schools, “Bring Violent Extremist Groups Like ANTIFA to Justice,” and “Prosecute Drive-By Shootings as Acts of Domestic Terrorism”. The rest bear a strong resemblance to many of the things he’s tried to accomplish during his first term, including pledges to “Stop Endless Wars and Bring Our Troops Home,” to “Build the World’s Greatest Infrastructure System,” and “Drain the Globalist Swamp by Taking on International Organizations That Hurt American Citizens”.

Missing from this document — and in sharp contrast to the multitude of proposals laid out on former Vice President Joe Biden’s website — was any attempt at detailing how the 45th President would go about accomplishing any of the objectives described therein.

That’s it. The Republican Party will “continue to enthusiastically support” the agenda of their chosen candidate for the presidency, whatever that is.


Trump campaign representatives did not respond to queries as to whether the press release of the “Fighting for You” agenda bulletpoints was prompted by the need for an agenda for the RNC to “enthusiastically support,” nor did they provide any details on Trump’s plans for a second term beyond their press release.


Most past presidential candidates would’ve considered Trump’s 11th-hour attempt at answering a question he’d been asked multiple times the mark of an unserious amateur lacking semblance of seriousness. But they would’ve probably eaten those words upon hearing about what passes for a GOP platform this year.

Instead of rewarding rising stars with keynote opportunities in the way Democrats introduced a young Barack Obama to the nation in 2004, each of the coveted 10pm speaking slots will be filled by Trump himself. And of the eleven other speakers who will address the nation during the convention’s nighttime sessions, five of them are either married to him or share half of his DNA.


Other speakers include the Saint Louis couple who were recently charged with felonies for pointing firearms at Black Lives Matter protesters; the Kentucky teenager who sued a number of media outlets for reporting on a viral video he appeared in during last year’s March for Life in Washington


The order of the week? Airing of grievances and paeans to the glory of the Trump family, long may it reign.

Platforms have not mattered in decades, as soon as the election is won those who win forget all about them.
 
The GOP's platform is… Donald Trump

The Republican convention begins tonight, and Trump will speak every day. The GOP will not adopt a party platform, but instead will pledge to "enthusiastically" support the president's agenda, whatever it is. Convention speakers include lots of Trump children
