Speakers at Donald Trump’s Convention: Tim Tebow, Peter Thiel, but No Sarah Palin? (HRC GP)

[Her Sister]

The list, which is subject to change, as obtained by The New York Times:

Night 1: A Benghazi focus, followed by border patrol agents and Mr. Shaw, whose son was killed by an undocumented immigrant. Senator Cotton, Mr. Giuliani, Melania Trump, Ms. Ernst and others.

Night 2: A focus on the economy: Mr. White, president of the U.F.C.; Asa Hutchinson, the governor of Arkansas; Michael Mukasey, the former United States attorney general; Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, a vice-presidential possibility; Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the majority leader; Tiffany Trump; Donald Trump Jr. and Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin.

Night 3: Ms. Bondi; Ms. Collins; Newt Gingrich, a former House speaker; Senator Ted Cruz of Texas; Eric Trump; Ms. Gulbis; and the nominee for vice president.

Night 4: Mr. Tebow; Representative Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee; Gov. Mary Fallin of Oklahoma; Reince Priebus, the Republican National Committee chairman; Gov. Rick Scott of Florida; Mr. Thiel; Mr. Barrack; Ivanka Trump; Donald J. Trump.

Even as they finalized the list this week, Mr. Trump’s campaign aides and party officials were also working behind the scenes to stave off any challenges to Mr. Trump’s nomination on the convention floor next week.

1. All four of Mr. Trump’s adult children are scheduled to speak.

[caquillo]

3. Why is that funny?

[Her Sister]

4. Trump had to rely on them because of lots of empty slots!

Plus what exactly are they going to add: Lots on their father the Trumpo. Bet that gets el Trumpo super excited. Second to listening to himself, he loves attention on himself.

6. Oh, I see

That's pretty pathetic. Like having only your family present at your birthday party, because the other, cooler kids don't want to come.

2. Did Palin speak in 2012? I thought they avoided her then, too.

Overall a very boring list of speakers.

[Her Sister]

5. I think it's more surprising Palin not speaking this year as she is a person "grata" this year

As far as Trump is concerned!

[Cha]

7. lol... are we finally done with her?!

[Her Sister]

8. Think Not! She might be a Co-VP

Along with Pence and Melanka (the daughter Trump likes!)

[Cha]

9. Co-VP.. lol good grief!

[Rose Siding]

11. Has Pence even been married enough times to qualify for trump's ticket?

[wysi]

10. Tebow...

I'm sure they will nominate him the moment he turns 35.

13. Tebow said no. He is going to sign footballs but not

12. Oh, golly

Economy night with speakers from states with really crap economies. I'm surprised the Donald didn't also seek out Sam Brownback who has put Kansas in deep doo-doo. I know Scotty will contribute a lot--how to take a state with a healthy economy and send into a dumpster fire in less than 8 years. I'm surprised there won't be a panel of Koch brothers to explain to all of us why they need all of the nation's money.
