Trump Rally in Mobile - Free GRATIS

Last edited Fri Sep 18, 2015, 08:34 AM - Edit history (1)

Unchecked corruption in Mobile, Alabama. Mayor said yesterday the city spent over $17,000.00 on Donald Trumps rally in Mobile. Said he will not ask to be reimbursed because it was good for the city because of the media coverage.
