    Case in point, is it more impactful to hear a criticism of Trump from a DNC speaker or an RNC speaker? Wtf is the actual complaint here?

      His presence gives the Republicans standing to claim (however falsely) that they’re the party of working people.

      I get the argument, but it seems to me that the RNC took advantage of him much more than the other way around.

        That may be true, but he also got a different kind of message out to a large variety of viewers that was different from the rest of the convention.

          Again, I get the argument.

          I just hope he thinks it was worth his career, because the union is going to replace him at their next election.
