Sharpton began by giving the invocation, saying that he promised “this would be a non-partisan prayer.”
But the mutual love fest could only go so far. He ended by reminding the Republicans that “I have a syndicated radio show if you want a real fair and balanced view of your convention you can listen to it.”
