Protesters at Trump rallies who don't shout... don't hold up any signs.... at a given moment they all just hold up pocket-sized copies of the Constitution--ideally, copies identical to Mr. Khan's. Preferably, this would happen down front or behind Trump. Anywhere the news cameras would catch it.

"What? I can't hold up a copy of the Constitution?"

It's cute how he covers up a weak turnout by pretending he doesn't know how fire codes/occupancy regulations work.
