Indeed. Good to know where I need never visit, never start a business, never retire to, never spend a single dollar.

"They intended to swarm to the front of the crowd at an agreed-upon signal, a Secret Service agent said his agency believed, converging on Trump's podium from different directions all at once."

Prudent move to cancel the speech.
