They appear to be nightmare clients for a lawyer. Like having a physician as a patient who has opinions on treatment, even though it is outside his specialty

Maybe they're hoping for a jail cell next to Trump?

Why? Because they stand for Truth, Justice and the American way of making sure that brown people understand their place in the universe. Isn't that what Trump is all about anymore? He's not even trying to appeal to anyone else anymore. I hope this starts to show people who vote for him based on "policy" that he really has no policy views whatsoever. Just a sad man beating the same drum in the hopes of keeping his 15 minutes of fame alive.

considering I just bumped into an Internet ad to re-elect Trump that basically said - Democrats want to take away your guns - Vote for Trump and keep your guns! MAGA!
I'm guessing this couple would promote "Keep your Guns! Buy more Guns!" for trump?
I really have to wonder about the target audience who would find this couple to be a compelling reason to vote Republican. Apparently it's a big target audience.
I'm liking being American less and less.

Also a speaker at the RNC next week is the "Covington Catholic High School graduate Nicholas Sandmann, whose viral interaction with Omaha Tribe elder Nathan Phillips at the Lincoln Memorial last year led to him filing defamation lawsuits against CNN and The Washington Post,..."

Is there anyone of political substance speaking at the RNC or just lots of fringe people?

When I was talking to my Mom this morning she told me that Democrats want to close all the Churches, and that is why the churches in California are not open. I thought during the Cold war that they always told us that they did not have the freedom to worship as they saw fit behind the iron curtain in East Germany and Russia? Now we can make Trump our supreme leader, and it will be a Christian Country and everyone will be honest and no sneaky and underhanded things going on, no corruption, no oligarchs, no keptocracy. We will have freedom of assembly, and we won't have secret police pulling people off the streets and beating them up for disrespecting the supreme leader. Well maybe we might have Trump's secret police throwing tear gas and shooting rubber bullets at anyone that doesn't want to live under an Authoritarian regime, but everything will be fine, cause Trump is a Christian - he held a Bible in front of that Church on TV. He spends every Sunday at his golf course instead of going to church, but He's a Christian, he wouldn't lie to us!

They asked Clint Eastwood if he wanted to speak again. He answered, "Gee, you know, I'd love to but...uh...I have to wash my chair that night." For the overly literal here, yes, I made that up.

Maybe the bakers who refused to bake for a gay wedding can appear. Also Bret Kavanugh can appear.
Then we got guns, minorities, homosexyals and women covered. You know all of us who are destroying Merica and preventing Trump from bringing back our glory days when Washington stormed the British airports in 1917 at the end of WW2.

IDK, after a certain point I go cross eyed when he talks. I figured I was close enough it sounds like something he'd say.

The way it looks, it appears that no one who is "normal" wants to be seen speaking at the RNC for 2020. Which is why they're scraping the barrel, looking for speakers.

I have to laugh at my MIL, and ardent Trump supporter and shite Catholic. She refuses to vote for Biden, even though he’s a devote Catholic. I explained to her that doesn’t that make voting for Trump an anti-Catholic thing to do? I think her head exploded.
I’m just amazed that anyone pay attention to either convention. The GOP is probably looking for a “Shock & Awe” campaign just to attract viewers. Maybe they can get Putin to speak?

The whole story. With the fact of law on their side, I would say they definitely 'know better'. Quote; Under Missouri's Castle Doctrine, "a person has the right, has the absolute unmitigated right to protect his or her castle or family while on their property," Watkins said. "And in this particular fact situation, you have individuals who are acting on private property, trespassing as lawbreakers onto private property, damaging and destroying private property and acting in a threatening and hostile fashion, such as to give rise to what any human being would consider to be placing them in a position of abject horror and certainly in a position of feeling in fear of imminent harm."
Watkins insisted his clients did not arm themselves until the protesters entered their private property.
"My clients didn't sit on their front stoop with guns ... No firearms were on them at the time that they, were, as property owners standing in front of their home," he said. "It was not until they basically were in a position of seeing and observing violence, recklessness, lawbreaking, and knowing that the police were not going to be doing anything."
Also, Quote; Mark McCloskey, 63 said in a Tuesday morning interview that he, his wife and his home were threatened by a fringe group that accompanied protesters marching to the mayor's nearby home.

NY doesn't have it. However, I DON'T CARE IF THE LAW IS ON THEIR SIDE. STFU!!!! Any time they open their mouths, there is a possiblility of an inconsistent statement or a misstatement that can be used against them. They apparently did not listen the first day of criminal law in law school.
