I asked the same about Ivanka above. I've only ever really heard that sort of title for a judge. I guess it could work for an ambassador or a cabinet seceret (but the latter is a stretch). For a bean spokeswoman it's a joke.

Hardline supporters are literally the last group of people a platform is targeted at winning over.

This was fake news - there is a platform, they were just trying to keep it a surprise:
It’s just trump and his family speaking at this for the most part?
Is this really true?

The nepotism and delusion knows no bounds, yet neither the Republican Party nor any of Trump's supporters seem to feel it matters.
This line up of Trump's (there's more of them - poor old Lara Trump doesn't even get a photo) is just laughable. 1,000,000% simply to get them in front of the camera's, some more face-time and therefore celebrity with the average punter, and to use that celebrity to milk everything you possibly can for everything you can possibly get. Any other (non Dictator) leader anywhere else in the world would get laughed out of the building if they tried this shit.
The leader of the free world treating the job like it's the ultimate "Keeping Up With The Kardashian's". Unbelievable.

If there is anything conservatives love more than Jesus and America, it's Israel.

“We moved the capital of Israel to Jerusalem. That's for the evangelicals. You know, it's amazing with that: the evangelicals are more excited about that than Jewish people.”

The bit with Trump and the political prisoners was awful and awkward. I also noticed that Trump spoke to the 5 white men, and the woman of color didn't get to talk.
