MILO Pumps Up Millennials For Trump at Georgia State Rally
Breitbart & YouTube Video ^ | 10/17/2016 | PoconoPundit

Posted on 10/17/2016 7:36:34 AM PDT by poconopundit

Breitbart Senior Editor MILO spoke at the Georgia Millennials For Trump rally to a packed (600+) room of young (80%) Republicans and conservatives.  Local Georgia pols and activists were there to get the crowd fired up at this well organized event.

MILO gave his usual brilliant, funny-but-deadly-serious, no-holds-barred attack on Hillary, feminists, social justice warriors, and the Left.  He even took a pot shot at Paul Ryan.  Great!

For a couple weeks, I've been captivated watching MILO's videos of his Dangerous Faggot Tour visits to colleges/universities across the country.  When I finally saw the artist in person yesterday, he did not disappoint.

So acting as your self-appointed [and totally vain] reporter-at-large :-) , here's my rundown of key speakers and observations.  To save you some time, I've keyed up for you the links to the starting points of remarks on the video for each of the speakers:

  • Ginger Howard, Georgia GOP (3 minutes) gave a beautiful prayer to open things up.

  • Weston Kirk, Chairman, GA Millenials for Trump (4 minutes) organized the event. 

  • Quay Manuel, Black Teenage Supporter from Georgia (2 minutes) is the kid who was chastised by an angry Black Lives Matter protester and stood his ground. 

  • Ellen Diehl, Stump for Trump Grassroots Organizer ( 5 minutes) gave a rousing talk, poking fun at Hillary's positions. 

  • Michael Williams, GA State Rep (5 minutes) was the first Georgia elected politician to endorse Donald Trump. 

  • Milo Yiannopoulus, Senior Editor, Breitbart (45 minutes) never fails to pump up conservatives and Trump supporters.  Incredibly as I write this, there are 69,000 hits for this YouTube video created only 17 hours before.  The guy has star power and he could certainly become the host of a late-night TV show or even help drive a new Breitbart television network   as Glenn Beck's Blaze TV goes down in flames!

    MILO blasted Hillary on her health issues with these gems:

      "Hillary is the ultimate insider.  She's inside ambulances, hospitals..."

      "You know they said it was a vast right-wing conspiracy.  They said you can't talk about it.  It's sexism and ageism to talk about Hillary's health..."

      Then Milo mockingly collapsed to the floor, rattling the podium.  [The audience went nuts at this gag!]

      "Every day, when the Hillary campaign wakes up.  When they've finished their morning prayers to meccah.  They pray they that they don't have another beautiful, balmy afternoon.  Another overheating incident."

      "I don't know what they're complaining about, another mild seizure here and there.  A few buckling legs.  Who cares?"

    One other note: MILO was gracious of this time.  After the event, he lined up to have one-on-one pictures and chit-chats with about 150 fans, I guess.

Some Observations

  • Breitbart in Action — Breitbart brought along a small team to the event and they managed it very well.  It featured a short and sweet lineup of Georgia political leaders who warmed up the crowd for MILO.  When I got home, I noticed the full livestream was available, along with a Breitbart story and top of Google coverage.  Then, as I was writing this report in the wee hours of the morning, I noticed the Google news shifted to a fresh Breitbart story, MILO: 'Hillary Is The Ultimate Insider.  She's Inside Ambulances, Hospitals.  So Brietbart editors had gone in and extracted the best MILO moment to create a valuable sound bite for social media and news media to pick up.  Smart.

  • Shout Outs are Great — Though I'd watched a few dozens Trump rallies online, this was the first time I have attended a political rally.  And when MILO was speaking, some guys in the back of the audience would shout out a few comments.  Those shout outs seemed quite effective in creating a bond between MILO and the crowd.  People laughed, and the event become more interactive and fun. 

  • Police in Force — Around 8 armed policemen were in force at the event.  No protesters made their appearance.  You felt very safe.  Thanks, you men and women in Blue!

His main message that he is trying to get out is that Hillary wants to import hundreds of thousands if not millions of Muslims from countries where they believe people should be hanged for being gay or thrown off buildings, so WHY would the gay community ever support her? She also takes bribes from these countries. I hope he is getting through because every time I read about gay groups in the news, they all seem to worship Hillary.

I watched it all up until Milo started to think and I got a “Youtube Error” .....I guess we all know what that means, don’t we.

They will crush the electronic ways of communicating until they drive us down to those personal, unhackable likes of comms that becomes their total downfall. Because those lines won’t be pretty.

So glad Milo finally was allowed to speak on a campus. He has been routinely banned.

He is very smart, funny and effective.

Thanks for pinging me. Here is my current work in progress:

How Can Any American?

How can any American support a woman, running for President, who does not respect the stated purpose of the Constitution, she has repeatedly sworn to preserve? The Preamble to the Constitution states that purpose:

We the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Our "posterity," of course, are our lineal descendants. A purpose that is 100% consistent with Donald Trump's call to put America First. It is 100% consistent with the Fifth Commandment, and traditional Western values, in general. Mrs. Clinton's call for open borders, and the failure to properly vet immigrants from lands with very different value systems, is 100% inconsistent with the Constitutional purpose.

How can any American refuse to vote for Donald Trump, who not only understands & accepts what the Constitution requires. He strenuously exposes Mrs. Clinton on issue after issue!

Trump is willing to risk a lifetime of success--his whole career & fortune--to take on a corrupt media, that tries in every unfair, intellectually dishonest, way to cover up Mrs. Clinton's crimes and repeated acts of betrayal, in order to stand for us, our Constitution and our clear interests, on a host of vital issues. Consider:

1. Trump supports and has been endorsed by the border guards. Mrs. Clinton has shown only disdain for those trying to keep America safe from a flood of unauthorized invaders.

2. Trump supports the rights of Americans to efficiently arm themselves, both for their own protection and for the protection of America! Mrs. Clinton has repeatedly sought means to disarm American families.

3. Trump has supported local Police in violent confrontations with neighborhood thugs; while Mrs. Clinton & Obama have allied themselves with virulently anti Police groups--some funded by George Soros--groups determined to deny their law abiding neighbors, the Police protection, necessary to make those neighborhoods safe.

4. Trump understands that making any neighborhood safe, is the key to increasing constructive activity in such neighborhood;--the key to people being able to start local businesses, with some hope of success; the key to better job opportunities, better credit ratings, etc. Mrs. Clinton has shown herself more intent on encouraging and supporting those Soros funded groups.

5. Donald Trump supports all forms of American energy production! He wants to let the coal miners get back to work; to take advantage of improved technology that allows a cleaner use of coal. Mrs. Clinton has insulted the coal miners, by refusing to help them get back to work, while she patronizes them; offering them a new dependence on even more Governmental meddling.

6. Returning to the Constitution--the solemn compact (or contract) that authorizes us to even have a Federal Government;--the charter, that once--when truly honored--made us the envy of the earth:

Donald Trump has pledged to appoint only those who honor the clear intent of that charter, to the Federal Judiciary. Mrs. Clinton has promised to only appoint Judges who agree with her ghoulish view of Feminist issues: such as the idea that it is O.K. for a woman--on mere whim--to have a healthy, already half born baby, killed in cold blood, in something euphemistically labeled a "partial birth abortion!"

7. Donald Trump, daily addresses great rallies, to discuss these and other vital issues; such as the damage to American workers & communities, resulting from trade deals, and immigration policies, that do not protect our rooted population. Mrs. Clinton has avoided in depth discussion of issues; preferring, instead, an incessant attack on Donald Trump's personality; his tone; his supporters;--in each case misrepresenting the same by a combination of lies, cherry picked but misleading data, gross exaggerations, and citations of spurious media smears, engineered by a slavish press, which covers up actual crimes, in a blind, but determined, support for the perpetrator.

Under such circumstances: How can any American vote for Mrs. Clinton? How can any American refuse to vote for Donald Trump?

Note further: There are thousands of organizations, some Faith based (both evangelical & social); some secular, but ideological; some based on Humanist arrogance (Return To Babel). Among them there is something to represent just about any imagined human interest. Our written Constitution is the sole organizational effort focused solely on the interests of the rooted American. How dare any American betray or trivialize our organization; the Constitutional Republic, as it was intended by the Fathers, who won it for their posterity?! How can any American refuse to vote for Donald Trump?

May the living God Bless all those who understand what is truly at stake!

They are just as compliant as blacks when it comes to voting dem

Rudy was gay friendly and they STILL hated him.

I love Rudy but there was no point in pandering to them. He was never gonna get their vote.

Spoken as a true American.  You laid out the key arguments quite nicely.

I took an on-the-fence voter to the Georgia rally yesterday and it was a challenging exercise to try and persuade him in our off-and-on conversations going to and from the event.

I came away with these thoughts:

Milo is a gay who is quite acceptable. Let God be the judge of us all.

Your approach sounds sound to me. Getting a prospect to talk about his or her concerns is indeed a good place to start.

As for that old Constitution? You can point out that it reflects a keen understanding of human nature that is applicable to any age in the human experience. It is about political functions, not the tools of a particular time. It goes to what is proper for Government at the Federal level, and what is not. What is conducive to prosperity, what inhibits it, etc..

Thank you, PP, excellent post. Citizens such as those in that room are persons who seem to be ready to go the distance in order to see TRUMP cross the finish line as a WINNER. NO WAY is Mr. Trump losing this election.
Viewing the next generation in action, one walks away knowing there are, at least, individuals who guard the seed yet to be planted that will grow for generations to come. The Tree of Liberty will not be totally extinct. Blight can be fought. Georgia is full of gardeners who have the potential of one day becoming the ultimate Master Gardener.
We should be praying that ever one of our ‘57’ states can produce the same results.

Thanks, appreciate the feedback. In future rallies, it makes sense to include those links, then.

BTW, for those who don’t now, you can capture any moment in a YouTube video by simply right clicking and selecting the time-based link.

Thank you so much for this thorough after-action report, poconopundit! I’m bookmarking for later so that I can give each link the time and attention it deserves. I can already tell that I will feel as though I were there myself.

I’m so glad you got to go support Milo and Trump!
