Re:Stagecraft. I want to know what sort of forced perspective and camera tricks they are using to pull off that one shot in Mellon Auditorium where it looks like the American Flag is being gracefully lowered from stage right?
Erick. Your opinions matter and this time I wish and hope you are right. I am a first generation American. I mean my parents are in india. The emotions we go through when we are naturalized can never be experienced by Americans born here. Like Melania I do have an accent and speak mostly British English.some people laugh at my English and some appreciate. Nicky , Bobby my sons are next generation so they can talk football baseball and all. Americans born here do not appreciate the liberty and freedom Because it is given to them on a platter.But I have worked all over the world (including Dubai) so what discrimination are we talking about. The kind of generosity I have seen in the US I have yet to see it anywhere in the world. People do have to travel to experience such stuff in Europe and UK. Will such looting be tolerated in any country, NO China you will vanish Russia you will be in Siberia and in india you will be lynched.
Last point on a lighter note.....the Indian lady who Took the oath for citizenship yesterday in the convention was of course wearing a sari or sorry a saree.
Erick, your opinions may not be always right (are anybody’s ?), but you have the courage to honestly state them and you are willing to allow your subscribers (like me) to post comments regardless of whether they agree or disagree with you. The world would be a better place if more people adopted that philosophy instead of artificially placing themselves in a bubble of people who only agree with them.
Once again, I am compelled to respectfully disagree with your assessment about the reliability of the polls. In October 2016 ( https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/general_election_trump_vs_clinton-5491.html ), there were 11 different national polls giving Clinton a double-digit lead, with the largest 2 polls giving her a 13 and 14 point lead. It wasn’t until the week of the election that the polls started to show more accurate results, but even then they were tilted against Trump. In concept, this year may not be any different than 2016, with Hillary’s huge poll lead suddenly vanishing in the week of the election. Perhaps one can argue that people change their mind at the last minute, and it is only a coincidence that the Democrats huge leads mysteriously vanish in late polls. But one can also argue that the early polls produce phantom leads for the Democratic candidates that vanish when the reputation of the polls are on the line and they need to produce more accurate results to maintain their credibility (a theory Rush has been arguing for years).
Another thing is that the national polls are entirely irrelevant to who will be President. In terms of the state polls for WI, MI, PA the only polls that came close to getting Trump’s victory correct were the Republican polls. Here are RCP average results from 2016 for the week before the election:
WI: Clinton +6.5 (10/26-11/2)
PA Clinton 2.1 (10/29-11/5) - would be Clinton 3.5 if not for two R-polls that were accurate (tie, Trump+1)
MI Clinton +3.6 (11/1-11/16) - would be Clinton +5 if not for the R poll that had Trump+2
It is worth noting that Trafalgar polls in 2016 was the only one that got Trump’s victory in PA and MI correct (it did not do a WI poll). Today’s Trafalgar polls has Trump winning in WI 46-45 over Biden and last Thursday’s Trafalgar poll had Trump tied in MN at 47 . So you can believe what you want about the polls reliability. But if you want to maintain an honest analysis of the polls (and you typically seek honestly), I believe you need to acknowledge the media polls are not as accurate as you make them out to be.
Where the gravity is currently heavy. Very effective. Trump campaign clearly dropping its anchor in our backyards. Therefore, dinging our conscious. Being convicted and disturbed by injustice, and how the democrats undermine our values and our Christian culture.

I appreciate your opinion even when I don’t agree. Don’t change unless you want to. Keep up the good fight! God bless.
Night 2 tapped into our emotions.

This election is a moral issue.
