Day 3 of RNC Convention in 4 bullet points

This disaster keeps growing, and I'm being polite. Conservative bloggers are going harsh on what's happening. The implosion is happening, right now.
  • It was supposed to be about 'Make America One Again'. Instead, it was 'Trumpworld or bust', again, focused more on Hillary than on Donald.
  • If there was any doubt that the GOP is no longer the GOP, all you had to do was watch Ted Cruz speak. He spoke about traditional GOP values, and he got booed. He was the only guy who talked directly to the theme of 'Make America One Again', about the rights of everyone, whether gay, straight, black, white, rich or poor, and he got booed! The GOP is now the White Power Party, looking to consolidate its power. If you had any doubt, when Cruz mentioned Alton Sterling, the convention seemed either not to care or know about Sterling, as if his life was irrelevant. They hated Ted Cruz so much, his wife had to be escorted out by security. 
  • The highlight was supposed to be Mike Pence. The RNC didn't bother producing videos to introduce him to America; accordingly, he spent a lot of time talking about himself. Weird, right? Of all the speakers, he probably did the best job of talking up Donald and delivered where others failed. But this Donald's campaign, and as such...
  • Donald continued to distract away from his own convention. He told the media in interviews in Cleveland that, contrary to NATO's core, he would require a litmus test on whether or not to come to another member's defense; no point to having NATO, then, as Russia can simply strategically attack lesser NATO countries as it sees fit while Nero fiddles.
