Another small town meeting for The Donald. Pendleton SC, population is 2,964. For centuries, the land that is now Pendleton was the territory of the Cherokee nation. After England claimed South Carolina as a colony, the Cherokee traded with the British.

“What”! LOL
I admit that I really haven't given the VEEP selection much thought, but I hope that The Donald has!
Nice!! I didn’t realize it was put together on such short notice.
Amazing....the crowds, the demographics, etc.
No more career politicians, no more PAC owned puppets, no more lawyers.....
America is ready for a Leader!!
And, scratch Suzanna Martinez (Gov of NM).
Jan Brewer....lol. (Didn’t she end up taking 0Care exchanges, in AZ?)
What about Gov Mary Fallin (OK)
One data mining program that Cruz can’t top. It’s the big Trump app. :-)
Newt is a globalist anti-gun sellout ... no dream team ... Newt should be running on his own if he is such a hot commodity ...
But my Spidey sense is tingling.
My Spidey sense kicked in on him from the git go. He was deliberately mocking Trump all the way through the speech. I was sincerely worried about him and wondered why Trumps security didn’t take him out. He clearly could have been a problem. (obviously I’m a bit late getting around to this thread tonight).
Cruz really should stick to being a lawyer;. evidently he's good at that and ONLY that! Politics just doesn't suit him at all.
Trump is a REAL leader and visionary. He's an OLD FASHIONED PATRIOT, a man who LOVES this nation, and REALLY hates people who break the laws of this nation; no matter who they are.
Trump is very like the FFs and is a combination of Teddy Roosevelt and Reagan.
LOL....and spot on ! :-)
Mary Fallin? I'll have to look her up.
5,000 or so people show up for Trump, but I heard that Cruz had a huge crowd of 200 today, plus he came in 3rd in NH, so he’s the big big winner.
Cruz was on Kelly Megyn’s last night, and she sat there w that goofy look while he trashed Trump.
I think it’s time to take the gloves off, and call the guy out. Trump needs to basically go to the GOP and ask for their support. Alleviate their concerns, which basically are none, and isolate this guy.
Otherwise, the following scenario. Bush, Rubio and Cruz will fight it out over the next several months, and each primary, Trump wins more.
That’s great to know that the screening of participants is piss poor.
Cruz is unelectable...but I know now that the longer this race goes on, the better for Trump.
Obviously not. Scary.
It was really weird. The guy nodded off and almost fell out of the chair. How he ever made it thru the security checks is one for the books. On the other hand - there was a gentleman further back in front the facing the stage who stood up when Trump asked for questions...he had a very forceful voice and proudly stated: Ladies and gentlemen we have on stage our next President of the United States, a true leader. Needless to say the crowd there and nationwide watching the broadcast went ballistic. Yelled and clapped like crazy. The neighbors might have called the police for disturbing the peace. What a crowd he had Wednesday night! Notice the cameras do catch a fast sweep of the crowd more so lately. Not often, but occasionally we catch a fast glimpse.
Right Side has done a magnificent job in covering these events. They really seem to be on top of things.
Thanks again! Looking forward To SC and a repeat of Tuesday night’s celebrations. *It’s a movement!*
LOL, such a pretty sight!
I’m surprised they didn’t remove that fool. At one rally, a silly kid kept making faces and doing strange hand/arm movements and they somehow had her and her family moved, during the speech.
I think that idiot is identified in the comment section of the you tube video.
