Note how it does not release Trump or his campaign. Hmm?

...who went wrong. Story is from last year, but it’s an interesting read.

https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/05/09/trump-john-lambert-students-lawsuit-jail-226802

He Founded ‘Students for Trump.’ Now He Could Face Jail Time for Impersonating a Lawyer.
Meet John Lambert, a living cautionary tale of the Trump era.

Snip

Lambert’s rise to prominence and recent indictment offer a cautionary tale of an ambitious young man caught up in Trump’s allure — a get-rich-quick fantasy of the American dream — who allegedly managed to create his own reality on the internet, only to have the real world come barging in.

It also shines a spotlight on the chaos and confusion of Trump’s ramshackle 2016 campaign, and the cast of characters who sought fame and fortune by riding in his slipstream. Trump ran as a “law and order” candidate. But time and again, the mogul has drawn outlaws and alleged outlaws into his fold, from former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and personal fixer Michael Cohen all the way down. Though he may be the youngest, Lambert is not the first prominent Trump partisan to spend 2016 taunting Hillary Clinton about her supposed criminality, only to end up facing prison time himself instead.

Phoenix church didn’t know Trump was coming when agreeing to rental

Snip

The convention starts at 1:30 p.m. and concludes after Trump’s appearance, which is expected to begin at 3:40 p.m., the Students for Trump spokesman said....
The White House revealed Friday that Trump would stop in Yuma to survey the border wall and participate in a border security roundtable before heading to Phoenix.

really think his team will comply. I realize they can't use masks when speaking, but I doubt you will see any of them with masks at all.
