Trump's first stop is the hospital in Dayton, and they're taking him through the back entrance...

...because protesters AND the Baby Trump Blimp are waiting for him at the front. So he probably won't see it at all. Snowflake!

Right in the congested part of town. Close to the district.

Baby Blimp and Welcome to Toledo.

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base would have been a much more logical place to fly him into.

to get his daily fast food fix, while he's there. I haven't been there in years, but when I was young, I always thought it was so neat that MVH had a Wendy's in it.

That several family members at hospital
said “Tell him not to come here.”
Another said: He made his bed now he has to lie in it.

Meet with him. They said they did not want him here.

Sneaky coward. Slipped him into the hospital, no Press, no statement, nothing. A wave as he got on the plane, as if people like him.

One Trump flag in the District.

This will be painful for him. Good. I'm sure his handlers have gallons of Purell waiting for him outside. Not as though the patients want his slimy orange hands anywhere near them, I'm sure.

I am becoming more and more convinced that the whole "germophobe" narrative is just the usual bullshit he uses as an excuse when it's convenient.

No public appearance? No direct address to the citizens? What's the point? He could have phoned or tweeted it in, for as much as his presence will have an impact on Dayton. But let's have the media give him saturation coverage as if his fly-by skulking in and out of town will make any more difference than a fart in a frying pan.

Like crazy at the Airport as if it was a rally.

He is miserable having to be here. El Paso will be worse for Trump.

We never see Trump in public without large, adoring crowds. There are never any dissenters, unless it is one lone person interrupting his rally and being quickly led away.
And this is the only way the FOX crowd ever sees him on TV.
If he were to appear before a reprentative crowd of citizens in either El Paso or Dayton, you wouldn’t be able to hear him for the boos and chants telling him to leave. Since he thinks the Presidency is a reality TV show, he will always control this part of the script.
