Didn't read it but am ever more of the opinion less is more. This includes the Reagan Library. If I were prez I do my job and leave. The End. I don't want a library or some other crap that will presumably cost the taxpayers more money. If it doesn't cost the taxpayers money than by all means do what you want. However, unlike some of the people in office I'd like to believe I am a true fiscal conservative.

A Moment of Retarded? A Moment of Trump Worm? A Moment of Politically Convenient? About on par with the first ICE shooting where people actually donated a million to gofundme for the agent who shot the woman in the car.


During the Minnesota Republican Party's endorsement convention held in Duluth, delegates voted to hold a brief moment of silence and prayer for Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of murdering George Floyd.

The tribute, proposed from the convention floor by a delegate, sparked intense backlash. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison publicly condemned the action as an act of "profound cruelty" to the Floyd family. State GOP leaders later distanced themselves from the gesture, emphasizing that it was a spontaneous floor action initiated by the body rather than an official party program or platform.

I get it George Floyd wasn't the most upstanding person, but a moment of silence and prayer for Derek Chauvin?

Good news is the guy who called for a moment of silence is almost certain to lose.

Listen to the moment of silence MN GOP delegates held for Derek Chauvin • Minnesota Reformer

Kendall Qualls, fresh off the endorsement of Republican state delegates this weekend, was forced to brush off questions Monday about one of the first events at the convention Saturday: A moment of silence for Derek Chauvin, the convicted murderer of George Floyd. In an interview with Chad...

>>>Rocco said in a call with the Reformer that, after Saturday, people in his district, which encompasses parts of St. Paul and West St. Paul, encouraged him to run for Minnesota Senate. He said he plans to file for candidacy Tuesday. He’ll almost certainly lose: Kamala Harris defeated President Donald Trump in the district by more than 50 percentage points. Rocco declined to say who he supported in the endorsement; a photo in the Pioneer Press shows Rocco giving Qualls a hug after Qualls won.<<<

Floyd's death is divisive to Republicans because a) he resisted arrest, and c) a riot took place. Basically they'd rather not address b) Chauvin kneeled on his neck for nearly 10 minutes. I imagine many Republicans have not even watched the video, or worse they have and decided to change the narrative. B does not justify C, but I'd have to assume they prefer to pretend B does not exist.
