That's what I'm reading.

Of course the OP is about the terrible day Trump is having.

Caught lying about charitable donations again. Brownshirts taking over convention. Rep. King comes out of his racist closet. Did that go over your head?

I believe in living in the real world. I also ignore both conventions. After 1968 they have been very boring. The ones this month will prove no exception unless you are a ultra partisan. The OP is by someone with 15 posts so I don't know what it is "really about" as you seem to know.

Donald Trump's motorcade was involved in a car accident on the way to the airport in New York City, CNN reported.

The presumptive GOP nominee was not harmed and was en route to Cleveland with his wife Melania, who is slated to speak at the convention this evening, his campaign confirmed to the network.

"I'm told no one was injured," top Trump staffer Paul Manafort said on CNN.
