This is what it's really like being in the crowd at a 17,000-person Trump rally

Having torn himself away from the killing fields and put down his big-game hunting rifles, the President’s eldest child picked up his political pistols to fire off volley after volley of attacks on his father’s critics.

ROTFLMAO!

17,556 is the maximum capacity for the arena where it was held in concert arrangement. They may have been able to squeeze in some more, but not much.

He should have said straight off that he hates Trump AND he hates Trump’s supporters, and his real goal of being one in the crowd was to create as many false images, slurs, insults and lies as he could.
A true piece of sh!t.

This can’t possobly be a retaliatory hit piece over that leaking, lying ambassador who was shamed out of office last month, could it????

If he wants to know fear then walk alone in Baltimore, Detroit, Washington DC, New Orleans, Chicago, Philadelphia, Oakland, Memphis, St. Louis... at 1 AM asking for help. Death zone. I could add so many more cities. Trump supporters don’t kill, rape, assault for fun.

Idiots.

The Mirror? They make the NYTimes look conservative!! He counted only 50 blacks...oh no...that either means that 1) Trump is racist or 2) He couldn't count past 50...

I think the second is more believable...

After I read “racist broadside” I knew that the author was just another lying leftist propagandist. Nothing he says on any subject can be trusted.

Hardly like the OTR show Frontier Gentleman.

A British reporter in the American Wild West. Decent radio series.

Grinning inanely like a constipated Cheshire Cat, Don Trump Jr, swaggered his way to the podium. Having torn himself away from the killing fields and put down his big-game hunting rifles,

Well, I am glad to see he put aside his personal opinions in order to give a sober, unbiased description of the event.

Judges are political HERE, like the ones who sentenced Tommy Robinson to prison for breaking no laws or rules. He just did what their media refuses to do, report.

I was struck by the fact that though his purported reason for attending was to observe and report on the audience, the article is relatively light on anything to observable from the press pit. He seems to have only talked to one single person and that person simply reinforced his notion that Trump supporters were brainwashed followers that simply accept and believe whatever Trump says. Awfully big missed opportunity for some actual journalism.

We The People Of The United States haven’t given a damn what the Brits have thought of us since 1776. And we underlined the point in 1812.

This article sold itself on being from within the crowd, but 99% of it is about what happened on stage. DRIVEL

Funny how he claims he was there to listen but didn’t bother to ask even one Trump supporter any inquisitive questions.

He’s probably too stupid to realize that those ‘50 blacks’ he admits he saw (but also didn’t bother to interview) were among a far safer crowd than if they had showed up to a left wing protest.

Safer than a soccer match in Europe, or anywhere but the US.
