Cares. That itself was an interesting thing to watch at the time. President ial nominee absents himself from the Party Platform process. Interesting. But what was way more interesting than that, what was riveting and bizarre to watch at the time that we Couldnt Make Heads Or Tails of at the time was the Trump Campaigns one exception on the Party Platform. Even hope the they let this other stuff slide, that was very much not in keeping with trump and the campaign, they did decide to get up on their hind legs and fight and intercede aggressively for one specific thing in the platform. One specific part of the republican Party Platform, and that was a thing about russia.

And at that time when we were doing our reporting on the convention and what happened on the sidelines of the convention, at that time i remember reporting then that Something Weird happened that had to do with russia. This one thick that happened at the rnc that stuck out like a sore thumb. It didnt make any sense in republican politics. It didnt make sense when it comes to republican politics of a normal variety. Obviously the main job is to nominate the partys candidates for president and vice president. But they also have to formalize the partys platform. And honestly nobody cares about whats in a Party Platform. Its not like a binding document like you have to return on those things in
