A lot of mixed messages the past couple of days between the president s tweets, the rnc, and the Business Community in charlotte. So what is the state of the Rnc Convention this august . Jim that is a good question because people down here arent sure. One thing we do know is that the president wants a big rally for his acceptance speech. He cant get acceptance speech.

Last night, other reporters and i saw groups of protesters peacefully marching past curfew and the nypd allowing them to do so.
