At the Republican convention today, the floor erupted after the RNC tabled a roll call vote resolution.
Former Obama NatSec spokesman Tommy Vietor, of “dude, that was like two years ago” infamy, pointed something out. WARNING: Watch for falling irony:
Rules, process and respect for dissent is what makes our government work. If Trump will brazenly ignore the GOP, imagine how he'd govern?

"respect for dissent" = more Espionage Act charges filed against Americans than all previous presidents combined? https://t.co/t67rVyqfoH

And who’s more tolerant of dissent than the president who once advised his voters to argue with their neighbors and get in their faces if they disagreed?
Somebody else needs to hear Vietor’s comments:
which one of those things applies to @HillaryClinton ?
