Thunder and lightening in Wilmington

Even God is objecting to Chump today. As he's speaking in Wilmington, the thunder is booming, and it looks like it could start pouring any moment.

He's making Wilmington "the first Heritage City"...whatever that means, and honoring WWII vets. Other than that, nothing else on his schedule today.

Please God, make it rain -NOW!

He's done now, but really sped up his comments as the thunder intensified. You could see him getting nervous.

the word heritage is used frequently to explain Confederate nostalgia, the statues, the flag, the ways of the south...etc. implying that nostalgia of the confederacy has nothing to do with celebrating hatred, and slavery, it's all about the white heritage that is being threatened. White Supremacists are all about Heritage. He may be 'honoring soldiers' of WWII, but then, that war is seen by many as a white man's war, as if the African-American soldiers were a very minor part of it. I think the language is meaningful.


We’re not ashamed in America. We’re not ashamed of anything. I signed a very important edict recently. Three months ago, they were ripping down statues. I said, “You can rip them down, but you’re going to serve 10 years in jail, if you do.” And as soon as I did that, incredibly, you haven’t heard about statues coming down, have you? Statues or monuments. (Applause.)

Just a lightning strike hitting him hard enough that he becomes a strip of microwaved bacon. Or a cloud burst of hail that only pelts him.
