Former President Donald Trump stuck to campaign messaging Thursday before walking into his business records trial by announcing plans to hold historic rallies in the Bronx and at Madison Square Garden.

The last time the Bronx was the center of a Republican presidential campaign was in 1984 when Ronald Reagan won by a landslide.

I think we have a good chance of winning here and we’re gonna give it a big plan,” Trump said about New York State. “We’re going to the South Bronx to do a rally.”

“We’re going to be doing a rally at Madison Square Garden, we believe,” Trump added.

The rallies will focus on honoring police, firemen, and teachers. “We’ll be honoring the people that make New York work,” Trump said. “It’ll be very exciting, but we think we have a really good chance of winning.”

“...when Ronald Reagan won by a landslide.”

That was GLORIOUS! First time I ever voted for a President. Last time we had one that was worth something more than a warm bucket of spit since President in Exile Trump!

Let History repeat Herself! MAGA! :)

I agree.

That’s why I am afraid the judge is going to sentence him to house arrest. It would restrict his travel on weekends and orders him to his residence every night after court ends

Construction workers were out this morning greeting Trump... It’s a good sign.

[Merely campaigning is not enough to win the unwinnable. Otherwise Biden could win Texas and Ohio simply by campaigning there a lot. Trump could campaign in New York for a 1000 years and not win it.]

The bombast and bravado are for making lemonade out of the lemon he got. He’s in NYC out of necessity. Why not do a couple of events, see if he can hook in looky loos and energize tristate GOP voters who don’t normally bother because NY’s a lost cause? The tristate media complex and the circus around the trial means it’s a way to get free media. People want to see if he’s depressed, resigned to his fate, whatever. An obvious persecution like this is a good chance to brandish and shake his shackles, protest the injustice of it all.

Trump understands good PR. It’s just that his spur of the moment brain farts often get in the way. This isn’t one of those moments.
