2. No wait I see two blacks on the stage behind the orange piece of shit......

[durablend]

4. "See? I'm not a racist!"

"I have two black friends!"

[jpak]

5. Both marginalized in the camera shot

One off to the side and one hiding behind his shoulder.

Not so strategic placement.

3. Florida blizzard?

6. What is scary about that.. is it is so much like a 30's Nazi rally..

and I know we should not throw that word around lightly..but we all need to wake up because some people out there like the ones at that rally are very unstable people.. and our country could be upside down in a heartbeat.

It was very much Hitler youth like.

9. The just showed pictures of grown mean in black shirts walking into the rally throwing White Power

signs..these is scary stuff.. and sad..

11. Is that a thing now, racist Whites wearing black shirts?

I have seen a couple wearing that shirt here in Florida, but one I don't think is a racist, the other I don't know about.

[Peacetrain]

15. That I can't tell you...but those walking into the rally wore black shirts

so in that particulas stance it was kind of a uniform ..like that damned red hat

10. I can't imagine watching that.

Good luck to all of you who are.

I’d have nightmares.

12. I have a hard enough time as it is sleeping. I don't need my blood pressure jacked to the pissed

zone before bed.

14. Pure trash.

Have you ever seen such a gathering of hillbillies in your life? Ugh.

The thing is, as much as Trump basks in all this adulation, on some level, I think he resents the fact that the people who love him are the same people he would not ever let into his apartment or let sit on his furniture. He is still angry at the fact that the elite of NYC, Palm Beach and other exclusive enclaves will never accept him as one of their own.

He knows that these people (who have gathered for his rally) are the scum of the earth, but he will take the attention from wherever it comes from. But he is deeply resentful of the fact that this is where he has to get his support from. I am sorry for these people in that they will suffer such deep disappointment, but I am absolutely disgusted by him and his use of them.
