Newsmax convention glitchery

Trying to figure out a creative or productive or amusing way of watching The DNC convention, I pluck over to Newsmax for their hard hitting analysis. I cannot help but think they may be one up against Fox News for dropping out of, say, the Kamala Harris speech in order to make any of any violence emanating out of the three digits of protesters outside the convention hall. Surely someone here is throwing a bottle?

I await the Free Palestine for LGBTQ+ People solidarity speakers out in Gaza.

The horseshoe theory, of sorts, comes in that these protests also figure more highly in Any Goodman and Democracy Now’s coverage of the convention. Though, they are less likely to call them “pro Gaza”, ascribe a mythical double application of “antifa” demonstrators, and any violence will be placed back over to the police.

The ads for the Newsmax coverage of the AND are illuminating.

And imaging gets a bit weird.

Yeah, they all stand right with your messaging. It ends on Reagan, which raises some odd questions in relation to the recent Trump total focus RNC Convention, the one with no history to it prior to 2016, all living presidents, vice predidents, and nominees dropped out of circulation. Maybe Sarah Palin wanders around somewhere?

Consider too the playlist of JD Vance at a campaign stop in Georgia.

Between the bunch of opening speakers — hitting hard on immigration — and Vance in what is… A parking lot in front of a police station? Correctional building of some sort?

… The stereo played this list of songs.

Metallica “Enter Sandman”. Beach Boys “Surfing USA”. Elton John “Yellow Brick Road”. Kid Rock “American Badass”. Mearle Haggard “Rebuild America First”.

Hitting isolationist sentiment, the song suggests an America that … Terminal decline

Why don’t we liberate these United States, We’re the ones that need it worst?, Let the rest of the world help us for a change, And let’s rebuild America first.

I gather it fits into the Republican anti-NATO message if you also ignore a Democratic Party snortle on “what’s this ‘infrastructure week’?”. We do see the great jump away from the previous Republican presidents.

Yeah, the men in position are backin’ away, Freedom is stuck in reverse, Let’s get out of Iraq an’ get back on the track, And let’s rebuild America first

RINOs one and all.
