I would love for a bunch of liberals/progressives to make up the vast majority of attendees and boo him out of the place... start ruining these little ego boosts for him.

 

[Nafai1123]

I looked up what that references. I haven't seen the TV show, so I'm not sure what you are suggesting.

I was meaning it'd be interesting to see a protest that is the complete opposite of everything trump stands for; He is powered (in a way) by attention and people reacting to him (both positively and negatively).

I'd be curious what would happen if the crowd was utterly, totally reactionless - as if he wasn't there.

Yeah, you're suggestion made me think of a group like the GR in Leftovers showing up all dressed the same in silent protest. I agree it would be cool to see.

Spoiler

Leftovers is gud

 

[Spladam]

It's been a tough two weeks, he needs to feed his ego with some anecdotal denial.

 

[IrishNinja]

you know it's an odd time when a sitting president having somewhat regular pep rallies isn't even really discussed

i mean, it's either this or chill/leak stuff from a resort he owns so yeah

Should be lots of fun after his budget proposal revealed cuts to farm subsidies.

oh man, i hope for some good protesters

He's getting the shit kicked out of him, with investigations and false promises finally dogpiling on top of him. He needs adoration from a screaming crowd to feel better for a few days.

really makes you wonder just how many of these he has planned as things continue to worsen

This. I live in Iowa and Cedar Rapids doesn't seem as much of a safe place as say northern/central Florida.

fixed

 

[ZOONAMI]

I hope they have to cancel after realizing they are planning this in a blue county.

 

[Cyanity]

I wonder if they'll allow people to bring guns to this one.

 

[streetsahead123]

Ugh, get this shit out of my hometown

 

[Ogodei]

A damn DoubleTree?

Fitting venue for a guy who's basically an MLM salesman.

 

[shintoki]

Giant firework electoral map

 

[ManDudeChild]

I wonder if they'll allow people to bring guns to this one.

Are you wondering this because of his budget screwing with people in Iowa? Because I'm wondering this.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Right after he comes back the the Middle East.

Amazing.

BRUSSELS—Sad and lonely from the diplomatic trip that has kept him thousands of miles away from his private estate for almost a week, a homesick Donald Trump stayed up all night on the phone with the automated Mar-a-Lago reservations line, sources said Wednesday. “The dining room will be open from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., and tonight’s specials will be braised lamb with vegetables and herb-roasted salmon served on a bed of orzo, in addition to a six-star seafood buffet that will be served on the patio,” said the concierge’s voice on a pre-recorded message as the president, huddled under the blanket in his hotel, wiped tears away with his pajama sleeve and reminded himself that he only had three more days to go. “If you would like to access our premium spa or salon services, press 1; if you would like to schedule a tennis or golf lesson with one of our certified professionals, press 2; if you would like to book one of our spaces for a wedding or event, press 3. Please press 9 to hear the options again.” After cycling through the selections numerous times, Trump reportedly dozed off with the phone on his pillow and an untroubled smile on his sleeping face.

The onion

 

[bebop242]

Just got 4 tickets to this. Will be an interesting night.

 

[tekumseh]

The biggest thing which makes these mostly tolerable for him is that they still designate them as campaigning events, which means that, to an extent, they get to control crowd makeup.

 

[mieumieu]

A Nicolae Ceausescu moment incoming?

 

[Strike]

Of course he needs to retreat to his little safe space again. I can't help but imagine how conservatives would be acting if Obama or any other sitting Dem president did anything like this.

 

[xxracerxx]

What a sad man.

 

[Astral Dog]

That looks like Trump is now named Donald P. Trump D:

 

[Jombie]

I don't see how these rallies can possible garner the support they did before the election. Can anybody believe anymore that he's their guy and is going to do all these things for them?

What the fuck can his messaging even be at this point for such an event?

I see shit all the time on Facebook from Trump fucks calling him a messiah, so yeah.

 

[jb1234]

I'd roll my eyes and mock him if this weren't costing the taxpayers. As it is, it just pisses me off that we're on the hook because his insatiable ego needs a stroking.

 

[Electric Eye]

You guys are all putting this rally down but forget that rally Trump is best Trump. He has been quiet lately no doubt his handlers finally pulled the battery out of his phone and tossed it into a river so he has a lot of vent up steam he needs to release and he will do just that at the rally because nothing gets Donny to incriminate himself like when he's around like minded morons.

 

[grandjedi6]

This is gonna be a hilarious backfire

 

[bebop242]

It was first come first served but I wonder if I'll be vetted. I'm a registered Democrat with a very unique last name. We'll see.

 

[Yoshimitsu126]

I hope he just says stupid things and nothing else happens.

 

[Nightbird]

Get your bingo card of stupid stuff he's going to say ready!

 

[paperboywriter]

At this point I don't care anymore. Maybe it improves his actions as the President. Who knows

 

[Magni]

I hope he gets egged.

 

[xxracerxx]

Is this a joke? Because it reads like one.

 

[paperboywriter]

Is this a joke? Because it reads like one.

Its resignation/ desperation

 

[A Human Becoming]

I hope some protesters stand near the cameras chanting "Impeach Trump, lock him up!"

 

[PKrockin]

Why though? Doesn't he have president stuff to do instead?

Could be because of this?

Obamacare's Struggles In Iowa Could Be A Preview Of What's To Come

 

[Souldriver]

The only thing this administration seems to manage doing : organizing rallies for poor Donald to feel safe and loved.

 

[Kevtones]

I'm imagining the people getting excited for this and that makes me just leave the thread.

 

[Tovarisc]

Now it's canceled.

[Deleted member 10571]

You HAD to tell him!

 

[Dead Prince]

I wonder why lmao

 

[zethren]

"President Trump will see you in Iowa very soon."

Is that a threat?

 

[G0523]

Now it's canceled.

He just didn't have the stamina. Not even for a circle jerk like this. Sad!

 

[bebop242]

Thats disappointing. Wanted to see the fuckery in person.

I bet he goes to Des Moines instead now.

Or Sioux City.

 

[Schucky Ducky]

He is bound to say something stupid about the Russia investigation that will get him under more pressure.

Edit: Can't say something stupid at a rally if you cancel the rally.

 

[rjinaz]

low energy.

 

[carlsojo]

Guess you can't hold a rally while you're in jail!

Spoiler

i wish

 

[LilZippa]

This. I live in Iowa and Cedar Rapids doesn't seem as much of a safe place as say Florida.

Well it is not like he is trying Iowa City.

 

[SporeCrawler]

trump supporters dont care

as he said himself. he could should them in the face and they would still vote for him. its like berlusconi

 

[Beartruck]

Makes sense. His lawyers probably told him to shut the fuck up and lay low for once.

 

[Electric Eye]

You mean his lawyers lawyer told Donald's lawyer to tell him to shut up and lay low and also him too?

 

[bebop242]

Well it is not like he is trying Iowa City.

He was in Iowa City during his campaign and some college kid threw a tomato at him if I remember correctly.

So no def not Iowa City.

But Cedar Rapids was close enough.

 

[Amalthea]

Big babys big trip made him sleepy-sleepy, awww!
