MILWAUKEE — ANALYSIS — Lawmakers, speakers and delegates at the Republican National Convention have not exactly filled the Fiserv Forum with deep policy proposals. But when some have vaguely delved into issues, they’ve uttered some brow-furrowing contradictions.
Unlike past GOP and Democratic presidential-nominating events, those here mostly have avoided offering detailed blueprints for how Trump might, if elected, follow the convention’s nightly themes by making America wealthy, safe, strong and great “once again.” Their collective focus has been on heralding their positive assessments of his term in office — especially after he has entered the arena both nights.
An exception, however, was House Majority Leader Steve Scalise. On Tuesday night, the Louisiana Republican offered a detailed list of legislation House GOP leadership would quickly pursue, should Trump win in November.
