I listened to local talk radio on my chores trip, and the host had a number of people call in who are at the convention. The ones who knew, said that Cruz was better represented, similar to the caucuses. LePage is a Trump delegate, but may end up being the "only" one who will persist beyond the first ballot. The host and callers (all political insiders) were negative and condescending toward Trump. The host, Cynthia Dill, is a DEM who used to be a state Senator.
-- Trump is up in Bridgeport NOW! --
Streamed sound is a microphone in the room. Lots of crown noise mixed in, and a pretty serious echo too. I don't mind it, sort of "mixes it up" as far as getting a feel for the rally, and by now we know the Trump banter pretty well.
Yup, something similar on Hannity the other night...
:-)
Oops. I posted this to the wrong thread. Sorry about that. I’ve asked the Admin Moderator to delete it.
It’s difficult to understand.
You really have to listen! :-)
Nope!
Damn! :-)
Yes! :)
“Trump wont be out living on the golf course like the Kenyan, Indonesian, Hawaiian, Chicagoan street punk- hell be at work just about every single day hes President.”
If he does to a golf course it will be one he owns.
Pretty funny that he is touting Tom Brady. As far as I know, CT is a mixed bag on football preference, I’m sure they aren’t all Patriots fans!
For me it was the school for deaf (found out they volunteered ) and their fellow veterans “listening” together to his speak. They ( both those who could and those who couldn’t hear)never lost eye contact during the “education”. parts... The quietest and the loudest group I have ever seen. Those men love him. It was written on their faces Trump will be a remarkable CIC
I moved down to this part of CT (Fairfield County) last year from Boston. Definitely not Patriots country. Mostly Giants fans. A few Jets. But no Patriots fans.
Wow
Some new physical moves - holds his head (as in “headache”) when he talks about the lies in politics.
