If it couldn’t possibly be any more obvious that the RNC is having a far better week than the Democrats did with their convention, Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign manager Jim Messina provided this assessment of the Republican convention so far:
I am so sick of hearing pundints laud the RNCC production look and feel. Stalin also put on a pretty show, didn’t make the message any better.

Well, there it is.
Rs are definitely having a good week when we go right from zero to 1937 show trials. https://t.co/x8nS6x6uZN

Admiring Stalin’s productions isn’t something I would tout.

I’ll give you props for dropping a Stalin reference instead of the usual go-to Hitler.
That said, cry harder. https://t.co/LVbT9pwq5N

We don’t remember any Democrats mocking a slick production and comparing it to Stalin a few years ago:
I prefer Greek columns, tbh.

Et tu, Jim? Y’all are the ones who put Obama on stage in a wannabe Forum. Let he who has not erected a foam column cast the first convention stone. https://t.co/cezLl8XLMN pic.twitter.com/650Pta2p4A

How soon the Dems forget!
People tend to bring up Hitler and Stalin when they are losing an argument. https://t.co/FfrlHQbxBz

Just admit it, the Dem convention was a crap show compared to the RNCC https://t.co/6rssflt555

It’s even more amazing when you remember that Messina got exactly what he was hoping for in 2016:
