Glen Stubbe, a photojournalist for The Star Tribune, said it “seems no local Minnesota news photographers will be allowed to cover Joe Biden event in Duluth today.”
I searched for some photos of Biden’s event in Hermantown (near Duluth). It had a photo of him standing alone on an “x” marked in tape. The article was about the lack of press.
Only three press people were allowed into the “small, intimate setting.”
Trump’s visit to Bemidiji is on Youtube. I have no idea on the crowd size. Thousands? (On short notice too.)

Trump said something like “Wow - what a crowd! But - this is a peaceful protest, so it’s okay. They told me political events are limited to 50 folks - so that would be illegal. But this is a peaceful protest. So that’s okay. And we are protesting. We’re protesting the liberal policies of the Democrats.....”
President Trump is a street brawler. Something completely missing in the Republican party.
He is taking Alinsky’s Rules For Radicals and turning it onto the left with much success.
The peaceful protest angle is pure gold.
Does Joe Biden ever allow local media into any of his campaign events? He probably cannot count on them being as reliable for covering his blunders as are his favored people in the national propaganda media.
