Subject: Travel Pool Report 8/Crosby arrival
The motorcade arrived at our venue in Crosby, Texas, at 3:50. President Trump will deliver remarks on executive orders to ease the construction of pipelines and other energy projects.
The event is at the International Union of Operating Engineers International Training and Education Center.
Upon our arrival in Crosby (population 2300), there were hundreds, and quite possibly thousands of people lining the streets to watch the motorcade. A large number wore red and waved either American flags or pro-Trump banners. There were few obvious Trump opponents, though one woman held a Mexican flag.

Subject: Travel Pool Report 9/Crosby event starts
President Trump took the stage at 4:03 in a very warm, warehouse-type room.
He walked on stage to the song “God Bless the USA,” joined by men in hard hats. He received a roaring applause.
The event feels very much like a campaign rally, though it officially is an executive order-signing event.
It appears networks will be carrying his remarks live.
Before taking stage, Trump spoke with a group of men outside the building, looking at pipelines laid out on the ground. Their conversation was inaudible, but Trump turned to reporters and said, “great people!”
I didn't read the thread far enough. The pool reporter actually reported the "possibly thousands" of pro-Trump people there to support him ... as us. Amazing.
