The appearance of an unusually somber, almost SAD looking Trump on the show floor.
Being centimeters away from being on the short list no one wants to be on will do it to you.

I'm skeptical that he's even capable of that level of self reflection. He was probably just looking for a cheeseburger or had a full diaper.
Nah, he doesn't care about that. He cared more about his shoes and to the opportunity to tell the secret service to wait so that he could seize the moment and incite people by chanting "fight" to the entire crowd. He looked somber, because he is old and tired and he has a lot of law suits that he is trying to shake them off with the help of the Supreme Court.
Why does a farce like this need to drag on for four days? Just to have people go up on stage and puff up these authoritarians? Does anybody actually care about anything that goes on during these events other than the nomination?
It will never cease to amaze me that someone can go up on stage, say "the political elite and the billionaires are screwing you guys over", and then point to Trump and say "Vote for this guy, though.". The complete lack of self-awareness is baffling.
Part of it is setting the stage for future up and comers.
Obama had his first real national appearance at the 2004 Democratic Convention.
Oh boy, can't wait to miss Day 2 of this!

Edit: I listened to her speech. It was very ChatGPT basic.
