The 2024 Republican National Convention is now in the history books.
By all appearances, it was the best-run convention in years, probably dating back to the Reagan conventions (I should know, I attended them as part of the California Delegation). It was well organized and all of the speakers kept to the script.
Former President Trump's acceptance speech was probably one of the longest speeches ever, around 90 minutes, but it was never dull.

Trump recounted the shooting of July 13 and paid tribute to Cory Comperatore, whose firefighting jacket and helmet were on display on the stage. He kept to his themes of making America great again. He only said Biden's name once.
There's no way the Democrats can put on a convention comparable to the GOP's. They don't even know who they are going to nominate. As days pass, it appears more likely the Joe Biden will withdraw, perhaps this weekend.
