The teleprompters have been shut off. The balloons and confetti have been cleaned up. The male escorts have deposited their money. Time to debrief on what the hell we just witnessed at the 2016 Republican National Convention.

Melania Trump recited Michelle Obama’s speech from the 2008 Democratic National Convention. Rudy Giuliani reminded us to schedule that dentist appointment we’ve been putting off. Ben Carson suggested Hillary Clinton worships Lucifer. Laura Ingraham accidentally gave a Nazi salute. Peter Thiel told us money is more important than human rights. And then we watched 125,000 balloons fall from the ceiling.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
All that was very entertaining. But perhaps the most entertaining part of this years #RNCinCLE were the pictures posted on social media, which, frankly, seem to capture the present GOP mindset better than any of the keynotes did.

Bug-in-a-jar fodder. Grotesque, yet creepily fascinating at the same time. What a pack of geeks and mutants. Are they not completely embarrassed at themselves? At one point, my spouse said to look at another freaker, but the one I was looking at was on the left side of the screen. The lady with the ill-fitting dress is a sight we cannot un-see. They dance in a wadified way too. Older, overweight, bald GOPers dance as though they’re with one of the many rent boys servicing their needs. ew! wow. Republicans are such a gross pack of humans. ew. Hey you Republicans who are unhappy with your Party, leave it in the dust. They’re obsolete. Buy some body scrub and leave this atrocity once and for all. I’d be so ashamed to be part of their pathetic party. Low point. Didn’t think it could go lower than W.
