President Trump took off in Air Force One 1 hr 20 minutes ago, but thousands of his supporters remain stranded on a dark road outside the rally. “We need at least 30 more buses,” an Omaha police officer just said, shaking his head at the chaotic cluster that is unfolding.

To be clear, this isn’t a reporter complaining about waiting for a bus. We only had to walk about a mile to press parking, which was easy. Thanks to the campaign for that. But it’s hundreds and hundreds of people who came on buses - forced to park miles away - who were stranded.

Pumpkin face has really inspired some of the funniest zingers I have ever seen.
Yours is right up there in the A list.
This wasn't some sort of unforeseen tragedy - this was basically a deliberate "fuck you" from Trump to his *own fanbase*.
They got all butthurt when Hillary called them "Deplorables" for a legitimate reason: half of his fanbase are probably *too stupid* to actually comprehend any of it:
They're just mesmerized by all the flags, and the incessant blasting of that godawful Lee Greenwood ear-rape ("God bless the USA"
.
That song pisses me off because of the fact that it has been used to trick the U.S. into 2 indefensibly stupid wars (The "Gulf War" back in '90-'91, and that post-9/11 shitshow in Iraq).
At this point, I am cynical (or intelligent) enough to know that the millisecond those in "power" cue up that particular sonic atrocity, the only rational response is "bend over, here it comes!"
At any rate, tRump's "fanbase" contains a lot of the same "people" who "thought" Sarah Palin was impressive.
What a pity.
