It's going on right now (state roll call happening atm), and I don't see a commentary thread, so here it is.

This is really low energy compared to the DNC roll call since they just have one person from each state on a boring #RNC2020 background.

Lame roll call compared to the DNC, and in the morning/early afternoon when less people are paying attention no less.

Who decided Monday morning was the best time for this? The RNC backdrop behind everyone is also pathetic compared to the Democrat's version, let alone what they're actually saying.

President Trump's greatest accomplishment according to Governor Kristi Noem: Bringing fireworks back to Mt. Rushmore.

I expect the production value to be substantially worse, but even this backdrop roll call is bare minimum stuff

This is just the roll call. For some weird reason they decided to do the roll call early in the morning. The actual convention is tonight at 8:30 pm EST.

Daniel Cameron is scheduled to speak tomorrow. I wonder if he'll announce charges against the cops who shot Breonna Taylor. Could help Trump with minority voters if he does.

I love how the DNC had celebrities like Eva Longoria as speakers while our convention is filled with regular, everyday Americans like the McCloskeys, the Covington kid, and Alice Marie Johnson.

The only way Republicans have a chance of winning this cycle (outside of voter suppresion) is if they make the eleciton a choice, as opposed to a referendum on Trump.  And yet the RNC is going all-in on a four day Trump circle jerk.  Good luck with that.
