The speakers on the third night of the Republican National Convention described a dark and dangerous America, where the government can throw you in jail for posting on social media and immigrants cross the border only to commit violent crimes.

Almost every speech during Wednesday’s prime-time programming — billed as Make America Strong Again night — took a tone of doom.

“I have never in my lifetime seen the world falling apart like it is under Joe Biden,” Rep. Mike Waltz said.
