Campaign rallies are a defining feature of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s third run for the White House: all-day spectacles blending evangelical revivalist meeting and carnival, designed to deliver an emotional experience to his base.

    Even if you don’t read the article, the pictures from the rally are pretty much exactly as you would expect. I’ve also had fever dreams that were less animated than some of these attendees.

      Just living her best life spending her social security check to follow a snake oil salesman around the country. All while living off of gallon containers of potato salad. My god Fox News did a number on this country.

        The wretched dolt won’t have to worry about spending her Social Security check once the orange mobster becomes dictator -he will end SSI because he will have no need for her dollars when he can tap the treasury.

        Living off social security while railing against ‘socialism’

        Literally the first word out of two of the name of the program - and still a hard disconnect

      This makes it sound like it’s the same bunch of crazies following him around. Anyone got pics of other rallies? Are the same faces present?
