The Trump-A-Palooza GOP Midterm Convention

Not even close. False promise of money. Straight of Hormuz still closed, Renaming a state. All this while not being able to actually making anything more affordable. Waste of air time. And I am republican

Any "monies" coming in need to lower our nation's debt. Our grandchildren do not deserve this burden.

While I am unsure, I would have preferred a more subdued message asking all Americans to vote Republican to reinvigorate our economy with common-sense policies. He didn't need to make bold promises or insinuations of changes to a State's name or the Strait of Hormuz (just silliness)!

While I have only seen/heard a few clips from Trumps ramblings in Texas, I am disappointed in his attempt to bribe voters to cast their ballots for republicans. While making campaign promises about getting a bigger tax refund or getting a rebate on charges imposed by the previous administration through executive orders, cash payments for votes are against the law. Trump tends to let his mouth overload his behind, as my Grandfather would have said. There are still aspects to Trump's agenda that I support and pray come to pass. We certainly need to retain a majority in both houses of congress if we are to have ANY hope of achieving those goals. We also need to stop the infighting withing the conservative representatives. If we can't work together it doesn't matter if we have a few more votes in the house. From the little bit I have seen/heard from this speech I do not believe Trump was as uniting as he has been in the past.

Just read through the other comments. Where’s your optimism? Trump is thinking much bigger. He is resetting the world economic system. The concept of each nation acting as a sovereign nation in their own best interest is earth shattering.
Understand the big picture and get him the support of congress. It’s the only way out from under our debt. It’s the best chance to live in a world at peace. He’s the leader of our time. World wide.

Unfortunately, as much as I love our President, he did not make the impact he could have. First, offering a bribe to get votes is, in my opinion, undignified. Second, he made too much of his "being on the ballot" and not enough about the candidates he was supporting. Lastly, though it's not the President's fault, MSM coverage will make the most of his lack of impact. I don't think the Convention's impact on the mid-terms is likely to be as positive as the President is hoping.

Of course he met the "moment." If you call politicians' bribing voters with promises of free stuff, quotas and more for many, many decades The Moment. Trump's being Trump. He just blatantly blurts out the obvious. He' holding up a mirror to our faces, people, and you don't like what you see.

I think what were witnessing is who Donald Trump always was. A billionaire boys club narcissist who only really cares about his own status and self-interests. Every time you think this old fool can't go any lower, he resets the bar yet again. I mean seriously, bribing Americans for a vote, what the actual ****?? Whether he's barking ignorance at his base or his former allies or he's accomplishing jack-shit in regards to any "promises" he claimed he'd fulfill it's just one disgraceful insult to the country after another. But this is nothing new, Trump showed his true colors back in 2020 allowing and letting the Left to drag this country down the tubes and we've never really recovered as of yet. Ask yourself, what kind of an America First President would have let all the atrocities that have gone on during his tenure befall America? Donald Trump is not the President he claimed he'd be, and we've gone through one of the darkest periods in this country's history as a result..

"Did Trump meet the moment during the GOP midterm convention?" Trump has become a really good politician!! Blow lots of hot air promises. That he likely knows will never become reality. Because, even with a Congressional Republicans majority, they are a do nothing worthwhile Congress. They have no positive record to stand on. Same with Democommies. And yet they all think that a huge pile of $$$$$$$$$ is all that is needed to win an election. And therein is the first problem of politics. The next problem is Trump thinks too highly of himself. Thinks he is the "greatest" president ever and that he deserves plastering his name on everything and anything. His decades of being a staunch Democrat shows through more clearly every week. Which brings up the next issue, former Democrats hijacking the Republican Party - Trump, Nikki Haley, Rammywhammy. The future of the USA (like too many worldwide nations) is in big trouble. Yep, we really need far more liberalism - Haaaa!!!!!!

No.

He was great for core supporters, bombastic for those Republicans needing answers to current challenges on cost of living, gas prices, healthcare and strength of military depth/preparedness for those who want to harm us. Than

The convention was not one speech. There were over 35 speakers each night showing tremendous talent in the GOP (especially the cabinet), and narrating all of the accomplishments so far. Inflation is actually declining, except for temporary gas price spike(it was $5/gallon under Biden), and the economy is booming. As for the President’s speech, blame the speechwriters. During Trump’s first term, the average wage (after inflation) increased by $6000 ( it declined by $3000 during Biden) and it is up $2000 so far in the second term. That is the dividend, which does not add to the deficit, he should have been talking about!

I’m still a conservative but the mid term convention was nothing more than an embarrassing dog and pony show. I didn’t bother with it after Trumps narcissistic speech. If he doesn’t get this war and economy under control soon the Demonrats are going to be back in power and we are going to be in worse shape than when Brandon was in office. Take it to the bank!!!!

I didn’t watch it, but have watched clips. Paying for votes is a joke. Saying if you don’t vote republican, you will go to hell, ridiculous. Gas prices went up the next day. Grocery prices are thru the roof. I feel from everything I’ve seen, heard, and read, it was a hastily thrown together gathering that fell way short of its goal. A big disappointment.

I think he did! I was inspired by his speech!
