Friday, July 19, 2024 - 'Remarkably long and remarkably dishonest' acceptance speech caps RNC
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
When the fact-checkers use the words "remarkably long and remarkably dishonest" to describe a speech, it's not hard to figure out who gave the speech these days. We spent a week bemoaning "inflammatory rhetoric" - despite mounting evidence the 20-year would-be assassin wasn't motivated by the term "existential threat to democracy" (or anything like it) ... only to continue hearing the word "invasion" when we did have evidence such rhetoric drove a nut to slaughter innocent Walmart shoppers in El Paso in 2019. I finally got around to watching "Hillbilly Elegy," and while I want to just enjoy how good the biopic was, I can't review it in a vacuum now that JD Vance is a known political commodity.
