More than 12,600 words of prepared remarks were sent out for 20 speakers for night two of the GOP convention. Of those, just ten mentioned “COVID” or “virus,” or “coronavirus,” or “pandemic.” https://t.co/IvG1Uj230T — PolitiTweet.org

I suppose I should be shocked that a TV host is excusing away murder. But I fully expected Tucker to offer this line. Those taking it too far protesting systemic racism have no pretense in his world. But those committing acts of violence against the protestors do. — PolitiTweet.org

NEW — At the ’92 GOP convention, Mary Fisher, an AIDS victim, demanded attendees not turn a blind eye on the epidemic. 28 years later, she tells me she’s shocked and dismayed at how Trump is disappearing the COVID pandemic from his convention. https://t.co/IvG1Uj230T — PolitiTweet.org

@ParkerMolloy In all seriousness I think you're misreading my tweet. I only think a sliver of people actually really cared about NS concerns. Otherwise we would have endless news cycles about Jared using WhatsApp — PolitiTweet.org

Is this from the take him seriously or literally files? Trump, after all, did tell us he wanted to test less. https://t.co/QOtKiqceCX — PolitiTweet.org

And, yes, this is a question I’m personally grappling with and the press writ large probably should too. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Stein @samstein

It’s legit to ask why violations of email protocol/govt records retention was treated as an existential election issue and violations of the Hatch Act are dismissed as a Beltway obsession. I suspect part of it has to do with national security concerns. But that’s just a sliver — PolitiTweet.org

I quite literally have trouble finding a single Democrat who thinks Trump can’t win. They’re all petrified of it happening again. — PolitiTweet.org

Like a campaign shooting candidate b-roll, and posting it to some obscure YouTube page for a supportive super PAC to grab. — PolitiTweet.org

Does Mike Pence ever break character? Do we think the only music on his Spotify starred list is the soundtrack to the Ken Burns Civil War docuseries? — PolitiTweet.org

The Bondi speech doesn’t really work without the crowd supplementing it with a "lock him up" chant. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the great tension right here. A day after the convention focuses on economic opportunity for the little man, Kudlow is out there talking about capital gains tax cuts and regulation roll back — PolitiTweet.org

Hours before taking the stage, a speaker at tonight's convention spread a twitter thread about a Jewish plot to take over the world https://t.co/YqJ36OpK3I — PolitiTweet.org

A chunk of the country is on fire, a hurricane is about the hit the gulf states, another tropical storm has formed, a pandemic has claimed 178k lives and we are on the brink of a major spread of race riots. Quite the backdrop for the convention. — PolitiTweet.org
