I am sure this happens at Bern and Hill rallies all the time..../S
sounds like a wonderful experience
I’ve been sailing on the beautiful Lake Chelan. Was heartbreaking to see the pictures of wildfires around the lake a while back. They really took a hit out there.
I’ve got my red MAGA hat! LOL
And a straw hat with all my Route 66 collector pins.
I like those big pretty and often floppily hats.. neat breakfast / brunch buffet.. and I’ll have a couple of those mint juleps!
Vendors drove overnight from Eugene, OR, Trump's last stop, to be here in Spokane this morning @KHQLocalNews
Thanks Dolly. It was a day I won’t soon forget.
I think those two “vendors” were in Buffalo at the Trump rally.
Good morning bray; good morning nikos; good morning PJBankard; good morning everybody!
bray, that is a very finely crafted field report. Thank you. I’m glad that you made it into the rally, having decided to go at the last minute. To the victor goes the spoils!
I missed the rally due to my computer crashing. I pulled the battery and everything is now back to normal.
Your attention to detail, and excellent wordsmithing puts the reader along side of you, accomplishing more than you might think you have, in your effort.
Well done good and faithful servant. Well done indeed.
nikos, thank you once again for a yeoman’s effort in establishing the rally thread. Much appreciation!
PJBankard, thank you too for the well constructed posts, day in and day out, that puts everything in one place, helping cut to the chase and to be able to tune into the rallies quickly, no matter which side of the country they take place.
And to the Trump Family Thread roster: keep on keeping on by encouraging one another, posting video links, doing the research, keeping it real, having fun and helping to MAGA! Woot! Woot!
Helpie-selfie, Dolly.
Ha! My sister bought a button from that guy yesterday!
Gotta love good ‘ol capitalism!
My family and I have been going to the Fair every year for many, many years. I think last year was the only year we didn’t go. We have a route we walk through and things to see at the Fair. I’m sorry that we missed your exhibit. I really dislike kids and parents like that which don’t show respect for exhibits and artifacts. We would never think of doing something like that. We’d ask if we could take a picture.
You’re right about the pronunciation - The Fair used to have the best commercials, not so much lately.
Every town, and probably every school is its own pocket. The HS my son goes to, and the recent graduates, that cohort is all in for Bernie.
LOL! Too funny!
I imagine they are doing quite nicely, not a lot of sleep though!

I am going to keep our jobs in the U.S., and totally rebuild our crumbling infrastructure. Crooked Hillary has no clue! @Teamsters
I've heard some rumblings that the Fair Trade message was resonating with the Teamster rank and file. Is Trump's shout-out part of a courting ritual? Or is it a hint of an upcoming endorsement?
I bet you the Democrats are crapping their pants right now.
Wow, 3,000 miles later and still hawking their wares!
I haven’t spent much time in Spokane - mostly to spend the night on the way to Montana on the way from Seattle. The drive from Seattle to Spokane is a bit boring in certain places.
WA State University (Cougars) is there and Gonzaga (Catholic University) is in Pullman a little south of there.
Had friends and family members that went to 1 or the other as well as the University of Washington in Seattle (1 of my cousins played football there).
Coeur d’Alene, ID is a pretty area.
Note that the time zone in the header doesn’t match the article.
“EDT” should be replaced with “PDT”

I am honored that the great men and women of the @Teamsters have created a movement from within called Teamsters for Trump! Thank you.
