The Manchurian Candidate redux?
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2016/07/trump_and_putin_the_real_winner_of_the_rnc_is_the_kremlin.htmlThe book General Motors and the Nazis notes that in September 1938 Knudsen met personally with Hermann Göring at the Nazi leader's hunting lodge. On Oct 26, 1938, the New York Times quoted Knudsen’s remarks upon his return from a trip to Europe: “He said that Germany had been transformed since his last visit several years ago and that the Reich today was ‘the miracle of the twentieth century.’ ” The following year, according to General Motors and the Nazis, Knudsen set into motion the construction of “a plant designed, at the request of the German Air Ministry, to utilize American technology to develop advanced components for aircraft engines in which the leaders of the Luftwaffe were particularly interested.”

If as them scientifickers posit our brains are unduly influenced by our gut flora and fauna I can see a distant future archaeological dig at the Quicken Loans Shrine site uncovering a similar midden to this old Silk Road one revealing that the Alpha Centaurian synaptic fluke had been present for hundreds of years longer than suspected and well before their successful annexation of Earth - some point to the TV Series BrainDead as an early cry for help from a nascent resistance group... -
So much for my estimate of when Trump would speak, they do go on... – I couldn’t wait and had to go out – so gawd knows what time he started and I just got home and heard he only just finished talking – at midnight EST.!!
Don’t think I’ll bother going back and watching/listening – life’s too short now that I think about it… -

Update:
The convention gets under way at 7:30 p. m. EST (11:30 a.m. NZ). The theme for the evening is "Make America One Again." Trump himself is expected to start his speech a little around 8:30-8:45 p.m. EST to formally accept the GOP nomination. -
Day four live – the acceptance speech is coming
What time will Mr Trump speak?
In prime time of course. The exact timing will depend on how long other speakers take before him but expect to see Mr Trump emerging, probably through some dry ice to the sound of Queen’s We Are The Champions, at about 9pm US eastern time.
