(snips) -- When President Trump holds his Target Center rally Thursday night, it will draw thousands of his supporters and opponents to the heart of the most Democratic city in the state.

It’s created logistical and cost concerns for Minneapolis officials, who are asking for help from state, local and federal law enforcement agencies and expecting hundreds of thousands of dollars in extra costs for security."

"Giselda Gutierrez works with the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee, which posted a “Dump Trump” protest event on Facebook that's attracted thousands of responses. She said she was shocked when she heard Trump was coming to Minneapolis.

“It seems very intentional that he’s coming here. He’s going to hit on those messages of being anti-Muslim and anti-refugee, and that’s why we decided we needed to oppose that,” she said. “We’re not going to be sucked into that message of hating our fellow community members, people we live with.”

More than a dozen groups are working together to coordinate the protests and they’re training hundreds of marshals to try to keep protesters safe during the event. The groups said they don’t want any violence.

Will this event be the watermark that warms up our cold civil war, or a big nothing?

Mostly depends on how the LEOs operate. Will they stand down by order of the mayor or will they keep the peace?

I hope Trump wins MN in 2020. The look on the MSM commie’s faces will be priceless.

I suspect that there will so many people with those new red police tee shirts, it will be impossible for the activists to tell who is a cop.

Federalist—According to Burisma’s website, Joseph Cofer Black (Romney adviser) was appointed in February of 2017 and continues to serve on its board. The timelines would indicate that Black and Biden worked together at Burisma, and indeed, web archives from late 2017 show Black and Biden listed simultaneously on the board.

Burisma Paid Joe Biden $900,000 for Lobbying – Ukrainian MP
Ukraine News Agency ^ | October 9th 2019

Posted on 10/9/2019, 2:22:20 PM by Jacquerie

KYIV. Oct 9 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden received $900,000 for lobbying activities from Burisma Group, Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada member Andriy Derkach said citing investigation materials.

Derkach publicized documents which, as he said, “describe the mechanism of getting money by Biden Sr.” at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine’s press center in Kyiv on Wednesday.

“This was the transfer of Burisma Group’s funds for lobbying activities, as investigators believe, personally to Joe Biden through a lobbying company. Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the U.S.-based company Rosemont Seneca Partners, which according to open sources, in particular, the New York Times, is affiliated with Biden. The payment reference was payment for consultative services,” Derkach said.

There will be lots to learn from this.
The Machine frequently brings in BotThugs from Chicago.
Your average MN voter is tired of the Somali-Racism-BLM nonsense.
70k Trump supporters in Minneapolis could shake the MN DFL to its foundations.

Reagan had major support from Democrats in both 1980 and ‘84 in MN.
Only the Mondale name saved MN from going GOP

Ha haaaa!!! Funny what it takes for a government entity to worry about how much something will cost. How far in debt is Minneapolistan? How much of that debt was incurred providing security for President Trump events?

I grew up next door in WI in the 1960’s.
MN used to be populated by descendants of Scandinavians.
We can thank the Bush family for what it has turned into, same with every other state that has had its demographics forcibly changed.

Big nothing. Leftists are p****s who talk a big game but aren't prepared for a real fight.

Even if only 2 dozen “protestors” show up, you can count on the MSM to show pictures depicting “thousands”.
