Politics The RNC convention that even fewer people watched

Looks like a weasel to me.

 

Never heard of her, so I looked her up. Former wife of the current California governor.

I watched maybe 1/2 hour of the dem convention and 10 mins of the repub convention. Didnt leave me feeling optimistic about any form of unity, unless you sell your soul to one side or the other. Kind of gives me the same feeling I have about church denominations where each one thinks they are the bride and any others are frauds.

 

So this screaming woman said she is a first generation American because her mother is an immigrant from Puerto Rico........ ahhhh does anybody want to tell her, or should I?

 

Id pay money to see him and Max Waters put in a cage to fight it out.

 

Herschel Walker ran for 250 yds. last night.

My other favorite speakers - in order

Andrew Pollack
Tim Scott
Nicki Haley
Vernon Jones
Natalie Harp

RNC Digital Viewership Demolishes DNC, SIX TIMES Higher On C-SPAN Livestream

What I saw of the convention was hilariously terrible.....the screaming Harpy that is porking Don Jr was worth a laugh.....Herschel Walker sounded like a concussion victim....Don Jr looked coked out of his mind ...all in all.....poorly put together and terribly unconvincing....dump Trump ...simple..he's not worth one firecracker

 

And the screaming woman who said her mother was an immigrant from Puerto Rico..????????? Thats part of the god damn United States!!!! Trumps people don’t even realize PR is part of OUR country!

 

Donald Trump thought the mayor in Puerto Rico was president of Puerto Rico....not a clue..he also thought Finland was part of Russia

 

I wouldn't pretend to know the answer to this but, Puerto Rico is unincorporated territory, do people living in Puerto Rico consider themselves part of the United States? There are some similarities (though also some differences) to China's relationship with Hong Kong.
I did some google searches and found this. Which I thought was interesting.

Not sure, but I swore they can serve in the army,vote and don’t need a passport. I might be wrong.

 

Puerto Ricans have been citizens of the United States since 1917...the are not a state although they have voted to become a state several times...they are considered a US territory....Hong Kong was British and leased by England for a century ...when the lease ran out, China took them back....these are not similar situations..we never leased Puerto Rico...they don't need visas to travel back and forth as citizens

 

I believe that's entirely correct. They are definitely considered by the United States as US citizens, I think there is somewhat of a complicated relationship there though.

 

Puerto Ricans have been citizens of the United States since 1917, and can move freely between the island and the mainland.[25] As it is not a state, Puerto Rico does not have a vote in the U.S. Congress, which governs the territory with full jurisdiction under the Puerto Rico Federal Relations Act of 1950. Puerto Rico's sole congressional representation is through one non-voting member of the House called a Resident Commissioner. As residents of a U.S. territory, American citizens in Puerto Rico are disenfranchised at the national level, do not vote for the president or vice president of the U.S.,[26] and in most cases do not pay federal income tax.[27][28][Note 1] Congress approved a local constitution in 1952, allowing U.S. citizens of the territory to elect a governor.

 

There are similarities and ways they are different.

They are US citizens and have been for over 100 years. The difference is the vote...as a territory they have a governor but no vote in our system...

 

I know that, and I said as much. It does not mean that Puerto Rico gets the benefits of being a state though. There's a lot of reading material on Puerto Rico.

 

They are not a state....that's not the point....they are US citizens though which is my point and have been for over 100 years...just no vote...and all that status can be changed in one election...they could become a state with a vote
