Someone is having a seizure down in handicap area. I feel so bad, they worked so hard to be here and the excitement (and heat in the room) is too much I guess. Medics providing oxygen and helping them out to ambulance I would guess...
I don’t imagine he’ll be too late this morning. He has a pretty quick turnaround to his next venue.
Tribal Anxiety?
Maybe Mel Brooks can do the movie ;0
BTW,... Nice thread, nikos!
Amen, dearest grania!! Excellent post.
We are, indeed, witnessing history - being made by a fine patriot whose personal sacrifices are outweighed by the dire straits of this nation. He, more than most, gets that.
He deserves nothing but praise for the masks he’s pulled and ugly underbellies he’s exposed, along the way.

Oooh....that would make a good siggy line. ‘I’m a member of the TrumpTribe!’.
Many more minorities than they would have us believe as well!! Secret Service all around now, he must be in the house!!!
Good point, I am thinking that football stadiums will be needed to hold his general election crowds!
Good to see you old FRiend.
I don’t do well in crowds—yesterday’s rally was only 40 minutes away from me in DE.
Hope the person is OK—they will probably demand the medics take them back to the rally when they come to!
Anyone know if this is, by chance, being shown LIVE on any of the cable channels?? TIA
Build that WALL! Build that WALL!
Here he comes!!
CNN has it on background.
:-(
Sorry to hear about that supporter not feeling well. Maybe they’ll recover and can come back? Poor dear.
Thanks for all of your on the scene posts, GG!!
Showtime.
