Keep Nikki Haley on the far back burner and move Christi Noem to the front. Haley = rino, Noem is a patriot.

The only problems I had with the Convention, which was great, was that Fox kept cutting away and going back to their regular programs (can't stand Hannity) and two of the speakers. I had to mute the tv when the woman in the red dress was screaming into the mike and actually changed channels when Trump Jr. was speaking. He really needs to fix his habit of shaking his fingers and hands when speaking. This is a personal peeve of mine and IMO, it makes him come across as lecturing instead of speaking. I do like his messages but would be better off hearing him on the radio.

I agree... Hannity is annoying. He always interjects and talks over his guests. Still, he usually has good guests who provide much more content than Hannity himself. He's probably better on radio too.

C-Span has a great feed. No talking heads or banners. Fuck Faux, the Paul traitor Ryan influence makes Faux little better than cnn imho. I hate a turncoat. Hannity lets Graham say anything with little pushback.

Going to switch to C-Span tonight. I love the FOX NEWS guys but there is a time to shut up and let the speakers speak. Afterwards is another story, Laura Ingraham was great.

WOW!!! I just looked up Christi Noem. She's from Watertown South Dakota, same place my Dad was from. She looks like a great Governor.
I wasn't aware that Nikki Haley was a RINO though. I always liked her too. I thought her speech was great last night. I look forward to watching Christi speak on Wednesday.

I highly recommend C-SPAN. No talking heads. You get to hear the message not someone interpreting it for you.
"Someday I hope to be half the man my bird-dog thinks I am." looking forward to 4 years of TRUMP!

C-SPAN’s live stream of night one of the Republican National Convention (RNC) garnered nearly 440,000 views, a major increase over the start of the Democratic National Convention that drew 76,000 views.
“The numbers for Monday night come ahead of traditional TV ratings from Nielsen Media Research, which will be released on Tuesday afternoon,” according to the Hill.
Amazon Prime Video live streamed all four nights of the DNC last week but did not offer a live stream of the RNC on Monday night, according to Breitbart News.
The article read:
Searching for RNC coverage on Amazon also proved to be more difficult than searching for DNC footage. A search for the term “DNC” brought up Amazon’s livestreams from all four days of the Democratic National Convention last week, while an “RNC” search failed to return anything related to Monday’s convention.
Amazon users had to search the term “Republican National Convention” to find any RNC-related content, the report stated.
In addition, Fox News received criticism for cutting away from RNC coverage several times during the event, according to Breitbart News. “As the evening continued, social media lit up with questions and criticism regarding the outlet’s broadcasting choices.”
“Hannity and friends talked over half of Steve Scalise’s speech. Muting him at the RNC while they babbled,” Media Analyst Mark Dice wrote in a subsequent tweet.
