Despite yawns from some corners over a major party nominating the first woman for president in the history of the United States, ever, it’s kind of a big deal to many of us. But I suspect those wormy little Buster fuckwads who shouted down Elijah Cummings and Leon Panetta aren’t going to be able to …

Late Night Open Thread: Early Reviews of the EveningPost + Comments (62)
Unless I am missing something, Bloomberg is the first major public figure to openly question Trump's sanity. It was not in the embargo rmrks
— Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) July 28, 2016
Quite literally, Bloomberg can afford to say it. He’s an actual billionaire; Trump’s not gonna threaten him, because if he goes too far Mike could buy Trump Tower, evict Donald, and never even bother to take a victory lap in public. Donald knows this. Mike knows Donald knows this. Donald knows Mike knows Donald knows this, and I sincerely hope it’s driving him (even further) off balance!
Still impossible to know how November plays out, but Trump/GOP made mistake in Cleveland of ceding the optimistic/hopeful message
— Mark Murray (@mmurraypolitics) July 28, 2016
I started the evening saying for the first time I thought Trump could win. Then Obama spoke. I’m so angry at my own party right now.

The GOP offered a vision of doom, despair, and division. Tonight the President I think divides us offered optimism. I hate this year.

American exceptionalism and greatness, shining city on hill, founding documents, etc–they're trying to take all our stuff
— Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) July 28, 2016
1) Those are American things, not just GOP things;
2) The GOP is stupidly, willingly giving this stuff away. https://t.co/iVlDVh7DRR— Daniel Drezner (@dandrezner) July 28, 2016
"Shining city on a hill" was Mario Cuomo's first, you plagiarizers. https://t.co/PuvksY9taX

Trump left all of that lying in the street; you can't blame them for taking it and running with it. https://t.co/vLL8N5vFxX

Obama wants the election to be about democrat vs authoritarian, not democrat vs Republican
— Andrew Beatty (@AndrewBeatty) July 28, 2016
@AndrewBeatty @KtHathSpoken Truth be told, the GOP surrendered the choice of terrain by nominating an authoritarian. This is on them.
