The Convention starts on July 18 but the DNC isn't going to wait for that.

The Democratic Party’s plan to crash this month’s Republican National Convention is heavy on gimmicks and stunts meant to highlight a possible “Trumpocalypse,” as well as to ridicule the presumptive GOP candidate’s purported spray tan, tiny fingers, and dog whistle proclivities.

The Democratic National Committee’s “Counter Convention Plan Sketch” covers 22 pages and outlines the party’s activities in Cleveland, where the Republican convention begins July 18. Democratic operatives will launch their operation a week earlier, on July 11, to coincide with the opening of the RNC’s summer meeting.

Stunts include

One “live-staged” activity listed in the plan is a “Jerry Springer ‘Live’ fake show between Trump/Cruz/Kasich delegates.” While this stunt in not further described, the plan notes that, “Jerry said he wanted to be involved.” Springer, 72, is a former Democratic mayor of Cincinnati.

DNC officials also plan to “infiltrate friendly union hotels and properties around the convention that Republicans will be patronizing to distribute ‘care’ packages” to those who will be sickened by Trump’s nomination.

A “Trumpocalypse Survival kit” tote bag with a barf bag, Tylenol, Alka Seltzer, and a clothespin “to hold nose while voting for Trump.”

* The production of an eight-page “Trump Tabloid” designed to look like the New York Post. The paper--“ideal for dumping oppo” research on the developer--would include a Trump-penned advice column entitled “How to Talk to Women.”

* Volunteers dressed as limousine drivers would go to the airport and meet arriving RNC members with “signs with messaging about Trump.”

* The distribution of a “Go Trump Yourself” kit that includes spray tan, hair dye, a dog whistle, and “Tiny foam fingers/hand clappers.”

* Attendees at a media lunch would be served food “from countries Trump has offended.” The menu would offer tacos and hummus and pita.

* A Trump “Successful Businessman Starter Kit” would include a $40 million check from “your Dad” and a diploma from Trump University.

* Producing milk cartons with the photos of the many GOP leaders who are skipping the convention.

Race really seems to bother you.

Obsession with a topic is rarely a good thing (see JSO).

I'm always intrigued that all of these people have this kind of time to be away from work.

Well, they do get paid to "protest".

The fact that this passes for reasonable political discourse in our country today is sad. The fact that people think all those stunts are a great idea is even sadder. Of course, having Trump and Hillary as the two candidates is probably the saddest thing of all. Well, except for JSO's postings, those clearly are in a category by themselves.

Maybe Clint Eastwood is available to yell at an empty chair for an hour.

I always wondered the same about these folks before that whole thing fizzled out.

Those are all crisis actors.




Did I get that right, spandos?

Shit! Can't believe I didn't remember that.

Most of those people are old and retired.

These people...



are just young, ignorant, and lazy.

Baldy FTW.

Again.

Cluck, I hate identity politics with a white-hot passion and I hate that this election is going to be about the oppression olympics instead of about issues. The problem with Trump is that he gives ammunition to the demagogues and idiots that keep identity politics a force.

You could not possibly ask for a better opponent for Hillary Clinton than Doofus J Rump. He needs to be dumped at the convention even if the GOP has to make a brazen, shameless change of the rules to get rid of him.

Won't happen. He needs to be dumped at the voting booth. Don't have to change a SINGLE rule to make that happen.

Right you are.

A sequel to that fiasco would be fascinating. Must see tv.

Last time I watched any convention for more than about 10 minutes was the '76 GOP convention between Ford and Reagan. The '72 McGovern-Humphrey Donk convention was pretty entertaining as well.

Since then, meh.

Ehh...The Rock (in character) making an appearance at the 2000 GOP convention was entertaining to me.

And un(der)employed.

But despite the fact that they've lived under a Democratic administration for the last seven and a half years...

IT'S BUSH'S FAULT!!11!1!

And, the photo is from Poland.




It's like saying.

"Look at these Conk protestors"

We are the World.

How about these? All from "occupy" demonstrations....

Well, the primaries are over, the convention looming, and the GOP has an candidate that can not win the general election unless his opponent is in jail or dead.

Looks like we can all rule out the jail idea, so nothing left to do but hope for a real miracle, like a Sirhan Sirhan type assassin to make the unthinkable happen once more..
