        Yeah context matters and fair is fair. I mean they don’t share that philosophy, and while I’d like to maintain the ethical high ground, reality dictates that we have to speak in a language they understand.

          Nah, the Trump campaign is rapidly running out of places they can do rallies, because a lot of cities are requiring them to pay up front. This is normally unusual, but Trump stiffed SO MANY PLACES that he still owes $500kish from his last two campaigns.

          Normal businesses are easier to keep away legally than cities.

      Seems like there could have been about as many semi-trucks as there were attendees at that event.

      This isn’t the correct picutre though right? this was before he was speaking. There was more people than this when he started speaking apparently. Like way more, but definitely not what is expected from a VP.
