LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - President Donald Trump began a four-day Western swing on Tuesday with a fundraiser in Los Angeles, the first stop on a trip aimed at making himself a distraction as Democratic presidential candidates focus on the Nevada caucuses.

Buoyed by his acquittal in the U.S. Senate impeachment trial, Trump has campaign rallies planned in Phoenix on Wednesday, Colorado Springs, Colorado, on Thursday and Las Vegas on Friday. All the events are aimed at providing a competing message to the Democrats.

A “ distraction “ ? How dare the President be a “ distraction “.

While the Soro/Socialist Party is devolving daily, before our very eyes, the current occupant of the Oval Office is daring to highlight his multitude of achievements.

How dare he create such a “ distraction “.

BUT...But...but, the right is supposed to just sit there quietly and take whatever the left, MSM included, throws at them.
This is most assuredly just another abuse of power!!

Wish it was in Reno. Surprised the Vegas venue only holds reported 2,500 people. Maybe error?

It is at the convention center. I can’t believe they will set it up for only 2500.
