Ok - What is Trump going to do to take attention away from DNC convention?

So we all know that narcissist Cheeto-Jesus cannot stand to have the spotlight away from him even for a minute (ie calling into to Faux for an interview WHILE a mother was telling an emotional speech at the convention). In the past he has dragged up stuff that would be considered bad press and continued to beat dead horses just to get on TV.

There is NO way he is going to stand by and let the news media cover the DNC without some kind of Trump stunt.



What could cause M$NBC to focus away from the DNC and back to an empty podium or CNN to have Wolf foam at the mouth like a rabid squirrel? Feel free to add your own or expand.

True to the nature of the party, instead of capitalizing on the gop disastrous convention, we find ways to fight with each other.
Apparently we have more protesters in philadelphia than cleveland. Of course its never enough for some.

Eric and Don Jr rub their hair grease all over each other and people armed with facts challenging their RNC speeches try to wrestle them to the ground.

Look how much damage it's done already. He'll shout from the rooftops about how it's a rigged system and the media will carry his water.

13. But that is still about "them" not Trump himself and that is what he likes to see in the news

He wants the spotlight completely on him - he could barely contain himself in the interview with Pence and Lesley Stahl - just kept answering for Pence.

He is going to say or do something so frickin bizarre, they have to cover it

his lungs of course. He's got everyone's attention. If he has an ounce of intellect, he'll start clarifying his goals with more lucidity.

Not much chance of that though, he's too narcissistic.
