HOUSTON It wasnt your typical Trump campaign rally.
Instead of red Make America Great Again hats, there were turbans and Islamic caps. Women in traditional Indian garb danced to bhangra drums. And tens of thousands of cheering Indian Americans chanted USA! and snapped photos.
President Donald Trump appeared at a cavernous football stadium on Sunday alongside Narendra Modi, the popular prime minister of India, who attracted a crowd of 50,000 from across the U.S. to what was touted as the largest event in the country for a leader of a foreign nation.
You have never had a better friend as president than President Donald Trump, Trump said as the crowd roared with approval. We thank you. We love you. I want you to know my administration is fighting for you each and every day.
Trump is hoping to appeal to Indian American voters, a growing political force in the U.S., with his business-friendly agenda especially the 2017 tax cuts as well as his tough talk on terrorism and his decision to show up at the rally even though the ethnic group has generally backed Democrats.
Its giving a message to the Indian community that Trump is a big friend of India, said Rupesh Srivastava, a Michigan businessman and founding member of the Republican Hindu Coalition. That message will definitely motivate people.

Thank you.
In this case I DO KNOW BETTER.
Workers in the USA ( not just union workers but all workers ) are political orphans. The GOP sucks sh!t but its all we have. I think post Trump I will stop participating in voting. I am done.
The enemy is inside the wire. Progressives and their corportist allies control the GOP. The Greatest Generation is gone and has been replaced by the Greediest Generation. I don’t see a good outcome here, unfortunately. California is our future.
Capitalism without borders is suicide. Greed is blinding.
Republicans are not socialists, but there corporate anti American worker policies are very efficient at creating them.
That so many so called “conservatives” supported Hillary Rotten Criminal and her SCOTUS over us/Trump was a real eye opener for me. You can’t unring that bell in my household. What’s done is done. The GOP made their own bed.
It is a quaint thought that the GOPe cares about American workers. AD (After Donald) the GOPe will go back to its Free Traitor ways
You got the wrong person. If you follow the thread I wrote best pres ever. Then a poster asked me pres of India? No USA. I think it’s great he attended rally of 50k. Even if they don’t all vote for him did you see angry, violent, disrespectful posters???
I cced you :) I was replying to central_va
ok, so why do you say so?
You definitely know it better than I do - Seriously - on this matter you know more than ME. I was wondering what you knew that the President doesn’t
I like it, but incorrect/illegal use of “TM”. Take of the “TM” unless you applied for a trademark...
Donald Trump Ignores Sen. Lees Green Card Giveaway Bill at India Rally

I hope it is a good sign that Trump is noticing pressure coming from US Citizen families.
So are you actually supporting SB386?
Post 53... that was a very old poll. How about something more current.
Are you in Bentonville by any chance ?
Because the truth is actually a bit worse than that.
It is now 2019 and Hillary is not running and Trump has a great track record.
I’m thinking the same.
I don’t know who would step up to fill the void. Going back to milquetoast is really going to blow.
No, I escaped Redmond, Washington. Indians act like they own the place. And they look down and hate Americans.
Had to call the cops once when an Indian fuck was driving a fancy sports car down the wrong way on a one way road in Redmond. Got my car keyed as I refused to give way (it would have also involved 3 or 4 cars backing out of the road as well). Luckily I wasnt carrying. And the keyer was arrested and hopefully deported.
They do like to drag race in their Microsoft-provided sports cars. All while Americans are stuck driving 10 to 15 year-old clunkers.
