Signifying little

The republicans started their convention in Cleveland yesterday.   I was able to watch a few minutes here and there before nausea set in, but I did get an overall impression of the GOP as alternately the party of anger and hate for anyone not like them and love for white people in general.  How they think this is going to win the hearts and minds of an increasingly diverse society in future elections is beyond me, but they seem to be doubling down on a "whites only" policy.
