Nada in Yorkville. Guess that's what the "isolated storms" are all about.

Trumps and the banks. http://www.wsj.com/articles/when-donald-trump-needs-a-loan-he-chooses-deutsche-bank-1458379806

If he could he would, in a New York minute. But no one wants ties to Trump. Don't you wonder why that is?

I'm sure that Trump thinks something along the lines of if they don't want to do business the way we want then we won't trade with them. Brilliant! Once you quit trading with enough countries who is it you will trade with?

You folks really think that Trump will protect the small guys interest? How do you think he will go about doing that?

You really think Trump will build a wall?

Well said LR! LOL.

Tonight we will have a "full buck" moon. I've never heard of it but hopefully nobody will act crazy because of it. http://patch.com/georgia/dallas-hiram/s/fts0z/look-up-and-see-the-full-buck-moon-tuesday-night?utm_source=alert-breakingnews&utm_medium=email&utm_term=outdoors&utm_campaign=alert

I agree, she didn't deserve it.

Why are these somewhat trivial matters sucking out all the energy of this convention? Sad commentary.

I think the main thing that bothered me was the general tone of gloom and doom. But then again, that's been the mind set within the party for a long time.

The issue is settled as far as I'm concerned.

Trump's use of the song is just further proof that Trump has no rules. I wonder why Melania was allowed to use that speech. Does anyone think that whoever ok'ed that speech is a plant?

mrshoward, people are well aware of licensing agreements and what they do. Can you confirm who owns the rights to that song and under what rights that song was sold?

Queen has confirmed that permission to use the song was neither sought nor given. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/politics/presidential/20160719_Reuters_tagreuterscom2016newsmlMT1VRT1201816879_Donald_Trump_Walks_Out_to__We_Are_the_Champions__in_First_RNC_Appearance.html

The entire 1st day of the convention was the documentation of the fall of the Republican Party. My opinion, of course.

Queens owns the rights to that song. Trump can't just use it for public endeavors. He didn't use the motto, he used the song.

I loved Rudy for a long time but lately he comes accross as a loon. I also read that Queen requested that Trump stop using their "We are the Champions", of course Trump used it anyway. I hope they sue him. I also thought bringing his wife out to speak was a mistake, a bad mistake. She flat out stole Michelle's 2008 speech and was difficult to understand.

Yes, Michelle's speech was great but to be honest, I liked it better the first time I heard it. Rudy looked like he has gone postal.

Did you watch? How do you think it went?

Good grief. I think the content of this thread far exceeds the importance of referring to that horrible day as 911 or 9/11. But, whatever. In an effort to avoid further petty interference with the topic, I fixed it.

Well, they have released further information which appears to indicate Saudi involvement. The report is from 2002, why are we just learning about this? And folks wonder why there is such distrust of government. http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/world-news/911-report-secret-28-pages-showing-possible-saudi-links-to-be-released-in-days-34885132.html ETA, the formal report has not been released yet so I guess this is just speculation right now. Here is further information. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/16/us/28-pages-saudi-arabia-september-11.html

Let me clarify, for kids I'm sure it's a kick. Adults? Not so much. Like what's his name said "I'm not ten and I got "stuff" to do." It was a joke guys. Jeeze.

What? People are so bored with their lives that they have to use an app to get motivated? Disconnect.

Good! Cut their heads off before they breed any further!!
