Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton said he is "disappointed" that President Donald Trump plans to hold a campaign rally in Arizona during the national turmoil following the events in Charlottesville over the weekend.
Trump is planning a campaign-style rally in Arizona next week, amid an uproar sparked by his ambivalent response to white supremacists and the death of an anti-racist protester in the Charlottesville violence.
The President host supporters in Phoenix next Tuesday, one week after he reiterated his claim that anti-racist protesters were as violent as Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazi protesters in Charlottesville and that the "alt-right" groups included some "very fine" people.

That would be a monumentally stupid political move right now.
Don’t pour gas on a dumpster fire.
I love that Trump does this. It’s so refreshing to have someone that fights back rather than letting CNN control the record.
From Wiki....
Gregory John “Greg” Stanton (born March 8, 1970) is an American politician who serves as Mayor of Phoenix. He won the November 8, 2011 runoff election to succeed term-limited mayor Phil Gordon. Stanton, a Democrat and former Phoenix City Council member, defeated Republican political consultant/lobbyist Wes Gullett after a contentious campaign that resulted in large election turnout.[1] Stanton was sworn in as 59th Mayor of Phoenix in January 2012.

He’s a DEM....here’s my shocked face :-O
Hmmmm....maybe this Mayor is involved with Soros’ SOS project...which assists states turning blue/oversees elections, etc.....
Mayor: an elected Democrat whose sole job is to beg Washington and his state capital for money to plug holes in his budget that he is incapable of balancing.
“If a leftist goon wearing a black bicycle helmet tried to hit someone with a baseball bat his commie body is likely to get ventilated with bullets.”
In a seething riot that might be possible with the firers going undetected just like the Town Bully incident of years ago. Many shots fired, nobody talked.
Question: will a pistol firmly jammed into an Antifa’s gut make any noise when it is fired?
“...as our nation is still healing from the tragic events in Charlottesville,”
“nation is still healing”?
The nation is trying to throw off the incredible exploitation, for Leftists political purposes, of the events that transpired in Charlottesville.
Whoever ordered the police to stand down is the one person who is responsible for the woman’s death.
If Sheriff Joe were still sheriff, I KNOW he and his large posse (including an actual tank LOL) would absolutely ensure the safety of persons going to and from the rally. I don’t trust the new sheriff, the new chief of police, nor the Rat party mayor. I have two tickets but am nervous about going.
No, Trump should not announce the pardon at the rally. If he does there will definitely be riots and attacks on rally attendees.
Anyone know where in Phoenix the rally will be?
Probably get 50,000 people to attend to cheer the Arapao immunity from prosecution.
Stay safe, hope you can do some posts and photos from the rally.
Yep, We the People knew exactly what the Prez was saying! I can’t for the life of me see Trump canceling this!
Thx
