Ha! My wife just said they are going to have trouble getting hom off the podium—he is having such a good time.
Good morning everyone. Good morning nikos. Good morning exit82.
Trump is addressing the attempt by critics to take Manafort’s comments (out of context) that he made to the RNC, and use them to show that Trump is two faced, wishy washy, flip flopping, and not who he says he is based on the one comment- that Trump will change his tone, his demeanor, and his behavior, in order to appear more presidential... and if he does this, surely he will not stick to his principles or his policies, so we really don’t know who Trump will be as president.
Trump is getting out front on this and putting a stake in the heart of this latest opposition meme/tactic. Trump is Trump, and while I agree he will be presidential, at the appropriate times and places- he also is going to do what he says he’s going to do- as we have a 50 plus year history on this person. No sealed records like Cruz or Obama.
If his motorcade takes Route 8 out of Waterbury, they will be in Bridgeport in less than half an hour. A straight shot. Very scenic drive too this time of year. Hopefully the sun comes out.
Thank you!
We are going repeal and replace Obamacare
We are going end Common Core
We are going to protect our 2nd Amendment
Crowd cheers each line
Maybe he should make that call on Monday morning. Imagine, if he could turn the Carrier decision around he’d win Indiana with 90% of the vote (and the remaining 10% are illegal Candaians).
LOL
Excellent post, freepersup.
is there a way to have these links pop-up in a new window?
Right click the link. That should give you a popup that let's you can open in new tab or window.
I have thought the same thing.
I would think Carrier would want to get out from all the bad publicity.
” I dont think theres any way hes going to make the 12:30 rally on time. “
You’re right but I’m loving it.
Says I am angry at our leaders for being aso stupid as to allow this to happen!
Crowd chants Trump! Trump! Trump!
He has been talking for an hour already.
It’s only about a 1/2 hour drive from Waterbury to Bridgeport. Right down Route 8. A highway.
Closing now.
Thanking the people of CT for being here on a Saturday morning—I love you all!
American Dreamer playing—you know what to do!
What a tremendous rally.
What a great crowd.
What a great PREsident Trump will be.
His supporters behind did not number many, and the camera never spanned the ‘crowd’ so very doubtful there were many there...hope some one posts the number..
of course it was a speech of ‘attack Trump’ and he keeps saying he is ahead of Trump and he is the only one who can beat Hillary. his head shaking and narky grin, drove me nuts, and when he finished he just disappeared off the screen and did not go into the crowd as Trump does...then I flipped back to Neil @ Fox and he showed Trump still talking to his crowd, which was huge for an hour.it is 11:20 and Trump is still at the podium
so will search later today to see if I can find Trump's rally...
I live about 50 miles from Monroeville, PA. and here in Somerset County I have not seen one Cruz sign, but lots of Trump signs and ONE BERNIE sign in town...
My Trump signs are due to arrive in the mail Monday...and will proudly attach high on a tree, to keep thieves away!!!
Getting rid of Common core is a beginning but turning around the decades of liberal intervention in our schools will take time...........
Wow, if you watched that much of Cruz you deserve a drink!
Rally in Waterbury over and RightSide now playing their canned music. It annoys me that they aren't allowed to have us hear the music that the rally is playing. Are the ASCAP fees that prohibitively high?
