The GOP convention runs from Monday to Thursday. What can we expect?
Signed,

Dear Worried,
I have no idea. That statement is found nowhere in my promotional brochure and I ask you not to repeat it. But sometimes even a political spin-doctor must be frank. The Republican convention of 2016 promises to be a unique event in the annals of American politics. To make predictions about what Donald Trump, his supporters, and their opponents will do is like trying to pick a tornado-proof trailer park.
What an event it will be. The paparazzi will be swarming to catch a prized shot of guest speakers like Rudy Giuliani and Mike Ditka and, I don’t know, maybe Ted Nugent’s taxidermist. There will be laughter, there will be tears.
Well, tears for sure -- riot control cops don’t typically use laughing gas. Fox News reporter Brett Baier recently told Stephen Colbert that Fox reporters will carry gas masks. I’ve always advocated that precaution for Fox News viewers as well.
