It was a Republican National Convention (RNC) for the ages — an event that included plagiarism, humiliation from former candidates, references to Lucifer, and what was, for all intents and purposes, a trial by mob against Hillary Clinton.
But the color of revolution at the RNC wasn't red, white, or blue. It was Day-Glo green. Takeaway Washington Correspondent Todd Zwillich was there to witness it all, and brings you the aftermath of the "Day-Glo Revolution," a rebellion that never was.
