Wow- saw Bill still’s earlier report but did not know they found her.
Wow! I didn’t know you went to a Trump rally.
Okay, now I’m officially jealous! :-)
freepersup checking in boss-
Trump rally: Fountain Hills, AZ. Sheriff Joe Arpiao’s hometown.
It’s the one where the Soros goombahs locked themselves to their cars with chains and bicycle locks, and used their cars to block the vehicle routes into the venue.
That’s right yesterday! There’s a bunch
Hmmm...do you think that was maybe a proposition?
It was a fantastic rally, high energy!!
I liked it when Trump played the role of the ‘presidential demeanor’ candidate...
Presidential demeanor. Big deal. Obama has presidential demeanor, Ted Cruz has presidential demeanor, John Kasich is just plain demented...!
This is cool. I think what we should is maybe run some kind of thread on this.
(Be doubly jealous!!)
:)
You’re a CT guy, so you’ll appreciate this. There’s a web of loosely connected relatives and friends who stay connected through one of my relatives, who for his lifetime has been involved in politics, including local office. He and many of his nearby peers were absolutely 100% anti-Trump. But Trump won them over today. How? Anyone who would go to Waterbury at 1030AM on a Saturday and then next stop Bridgeport must be really, really dedicated to their cause!
Mr. Trump has a fantastic sense of humor, and you can tell that it is all so genuine; no rehearsed or canned lines.
“I believe the dem crossover to Mr Trump will be epic.”
I do to. That is the reason I give Donald a good chance to carry New York.
Bronzy was at INDY too
LOL! Okay, doubly!
Do you have pictures?
Bridgeport stream is up!
FOX News Channel has not yet come to the reality that Ted Cruz is toast. Rupert Murdoch & Roger Ailes must both be stoned on reefer. The FNC saving grace is Greta, O’Reilly, Hannity, Watters, and even Kelly who brought forth the olive branch to the Donald when she saw the Cruz remarks about NY values.....which has literally killed any chance he ever had to become the GOP POTUS nominee.
Ailes is asleep at the wheel. Ailes could right his wrong...by firing Neil Cavuto, who is hateful of Donald J. Trump. The Cavuto shows have zero objectivity. Cavuto belongs with Ted Cruz, his nutcase Dad & the real lunatic, Glenn beck!!! Go Figure!!!
**************************
Thank you, but I think you meant to send that to nikos! :)
I feel the same as you do. I was all for Cruz early on but overtime became a big Trump supporter. Now I have come to detest Cruz.
How true! Waterbury and Bridgeport are not exactly “nice” CT towns. Lot of poverty, welfare and of course heavily Democratic. Not friendly areas for a Republican presidential candidate. I applaud Trump for consistently venturing into the belly of the beast. He wants to be president of all the people and that should count for a lot.
Trump is up in Bridgeport NOW!
Mama kitty has curled up on coach next to me and has given birth one so far. Black gonna call him/her Trumpet
Mama is basically a barn cat. Except at times like this. Then she’s stays as close as she can.
