Doom. Me. Despair. Me. Terror. Me. Me. Me. And only me.


That’s a pretty fair summary of Donald Trump’s speech at the Republican National Convention. It was one of the most depressing, least hopeful, most self-aggrandizing and just plain poor speeches ever delivered by a presidential candidate. And Gallup agrees. (http://www.gallup.com/opinion/polling-matters/194000/first-time-trump-image-par-clinton.aspx)


… Trump's speech got the least positive reviews of any speech we have tested after the fact: 35% of Americans interviewed last weekend said it was excellent or good. Of the nine previous speeches we have rated, the top one was Barack Obama's in August 2008, which 58% of Americans rated as excellent or good.


Even that 38 percent was padded out by only the most fervent Trump followers. Of those who tuned in only on the final evening to see what Trump had to offer only 19 percent rated the speech excellent or good.

And while Gallup did report a change in opinion for those who watched the convention, it wasn’t what you would call a bounce.


The self-reported net impact of the GOP convention was also negative. Overall, 51% of Americans say the convention made them less likely to vote for Trump, while 36% said it made them more likely to vote for him. This is the highest "less likely to vote" percentage for a candidate in the 15 times Gallup has asked this question after a convention.


More of a convention flop. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/07/28/1553840/-Gallup-Trump-s-speech-the-worst-ever-tested?detail=email&link_id=1&can_id=5881edd36bf2690d1c7ff7ed0407b8fe&source=email-gallup-trumps-speech-the-worst-ever-tested&email_referrer=gallup-trumps-speech-the-worst-ever-tested&email_subject=gallup-trumps-speech-the-worst-ever-tested

Shortened version: You're all gonna die!

Actual thought while giving speech: What a bunch of suckers.

Audience response: we love you Donald.

Policies and Ideas put forward: None.

"Democracy is talking itself to death. The people do not know what they want; they do not know what is the best for them. There is too much foolishness, too much lost motion. I have stopped the talk and the nonsense. I am a man of action. Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice it is a fallacy. You in America will see that some day." Benito Mussolini
