Hector Tobar, UCI associate professor of Chicano/Latino studies opined the best moment of the convention was “Cris Peterson, the Wisconsin dairy farmer who told a story about families pulling together in the wake of a crisis. It didn’t really have anything to do with Donald Trump, though she tried to give him credit for keeping the milk flowing. But the attempts to humanize the president, his party and its policies were canceled by the many speeches with an ideological edge.”
