The whole political convention feels like a sporting or entertainment event. The endless personalistic glazing, rock music... is this really how every party does politics in North America? Trump really comes off as much less of a deviation in this context.

I think a lot have seen Trump's success handling it all in this ridiculous fashion and are trying to follow the "next big thing". 🤮
