One thing you can't deny about Donald Trump (http://mashable.com/category/donald-trump/): The man understands spectacle.*
True to his showman's reputation, the blustering candidate for president tapped former college football quarterback, NFL (http://mashable.com/category/nfl/) washout and evangelical icon Tim Tebow (http://mashable.com/2016/01/12/tim-tebow-ponytail/) to speak at next week's Republican National Convention.*
As the bur**uts from Workaholics (http://mashable.com/2013/01/16/workaholics/) would chant: Weird! Weird! Weird!*

Tebow is just one name on an eclectic list of speakers reportedly scheduled to appear (http://mashable.com/2016/07/14/peter-theil-gop-convention/) at next week's convention. And Trump has a long history of glomming onto celebrities (http://mashable.com/2015/09/03/donald-trump-celebrities/) for personal gain. But Tebow's inclusion in the list of convention speakers is some next-level American weirdness. Read more...
