This crowd at Pence speech is small and the clapping makes it sound like a speech kicking off a campaign for city council. #RepublicanNationalConvention #RNC

If Trump has “kept his word” why does he lie so damn much, @VP? #RNCConvention #RNCConvention2020

Pence continuing the lie of Veterans Choice. What a honorable man. And in front of his mother, too. #RNCConvention

Pence ties the anniversary of #19thAmendment to low unemployment rate for women, as if the two are related?

Again with the clapping and the chanting. It’s like a backyard band premiere. Pence also now lying about Biden on #Kenosha . #RNCConvention2020 #RNCConvention

“We are not going to defund the police, not now, not ever” from Pence is a few steps of cadence from “segregation today, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever.” Just saying... #RNCConvention2020 #RNCConvention

I think Pence meant zip code there on #SchoolChoice. Area code is wrong. #RNCConvention2020

“Our turn to fight for him.” Not vote or support or back or whatever... but “fight.” Pence divides America as much as Trump does, just with a different tone. #RNCConvention #RNCConvention2020

Man, these lines of emphasis are falling flat. His tone is shallow and the clapping is weak, not giving his lines that convention oomph. Pence finally gets to Christian nationalism in last lines. #RNC2020

Oh god. “Make America great again, again.” What a summary of a flat toned, soulless act of sycophancy. Pence even seemed to wince at his own repitition there. #RNC2020

Why are we ending in this? Is not this a starting song? Like sporting events? And a-cappella? Empty. #RNC2020

And now the awkward leaving of the stage. Trump on ground, a few feet removed from crowd? Sure is anti-climatic. No fireworks, no music (or not loud), no balloons. It’s like a bad high school homecoming night. #RNC2020
