GOP Convention: Hillary VS Trump Twitter War Heats Up During Acceptance Speech
It’s official, a former New York Senator and a New York City real estate giant will be on the November ballot. Donald J. Trump officially accepted the GOP nomination at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, OH. While Trump spoke about fixing our nation’s problems, former Secretary of state Hillary Clinton – who formally held a New York senate seat, tweeted messages refuting speech facts. For most of the GOP convention, Clinton watched speeches, tweeted jokes and anti-Trump messages.

Trump and many convention speakers took aim at Clinton for her record and email scandal. Dr. Ben Carson compared Clinton to lucifer and in a shocking twist Sen. Ted Cruz said, “Vote your conscience” instead of supporting his rival Trump with the rest of the Republican Party. Clinton quoted Cruz in a tweet with a link to her website. It is now one of her lost popular tweets.

Clinton also had a little help being critical of Trump during his acceptance speech from former presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders who tweeted responses to points made in the address.
Trump’s economic plan: same old, same old trickle-down economics. Pathetic. #RNCwithBernie

Political commentators made predictions that the November election will be close. Trump, who has no prior political experience, made a point that his outsider status is why voters should support him. “Corruption has reached a level, like never ever before in our country,” Trump said in his speech. Donald Trump spoke for 75 minutes. At the close of the convention his family joined him on stage and balloons and confetti fell from the ceiling. In case you missed it, Here’s more highlights from Twitter.
