Another week, another convention. The Republican National Convention was full of wild moments that made us all cringe, laugh, and probably cry. Let’s dive into five of my favorite highlights. Rank your own favorites below!
#1 Kimberly Guilfoyle Shouted at an Empty Room
#2 Democrats Want to Control “How Many Hamburgers You Can Eat.”
If Mitch said it, it must be true. Apparently the absolute most unjust, horrific, and un-American thing that Democrats will do is take away our God-given right to hamburgers. Now that’s oppression.
#3 Melania Gave Ivanka a True Death Stare
To the tune of none other than “God Bless the USA,” Melania Trump gave the most terrifying stare to Ivanka that no one would ever wish on their worst enemy. Even watching through a screen, it kind of hurt me.
#4 The Purge Memes
Okay, this isn’t technically a part of the convention, but Twitter was quick to spot that the RNC looked eerily like the beginning of “The Purge.” I totally see it. I’m laughing uncomfortably.
#5 Trump’s Speech Contained over 20 False or Misleading Claims.
CNN fact-checked his speech and apparently found a false claim every three minutes. Trump spoke for over an hour. I’m not sure if I should laugh or cry at this point.
