Trump Melbourne live thread

[mia]

Getting ready to watch it here on youtube. The beautiful, majestic music is reminding me of The Third Reich. So sad.

[HipChick]

1. Very non-diverse crowd...

[Pachamama]

2. Trump train..... How terrifying

Those Black women might want to learn about some trains the nazis had....because that's where they think those black women really belong

[mia]

4. Diamond and Silk duo

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_and_Silk

[wordpix]

3. actually they look very diverse behind speaker---Trump hotel workers, perhaps?

[underpants]

52. Friends of April Ryan

[spanone]

5. no thanks.

having a pretty good day.

[strongermessage]

6. And our taxdollars are paying for this bullshit.

[DeminPennswoods]

16. Actually, no, Trump campaign funds

will reimburse the gov't (us). It's illegal to use gov't $ for campaign events.

[strongermessage]

65. When has doing something illegally ever stopped Trump. I'll believe it...

when the check clears.

[QED]

7. Nope, can't do it.

Can't watch him - he takes my blood pressure to a dangerous level.

[narnian60]

37. I tried. Bailed after he started on the media a few minutes in.

Same old crapola.

[mitch96]

117. It's like trying to watch Faux news

I just can't do it.. I'd throw something at the tv and I can't afford a new one...
m

[Pinecone02]

124. Nope, can't do it.

I am with you 100% on that one. Simply hearing his name gives me heart palpitations 😡

[Miles Archer]

8. I'd like to thank the beady eyed little prick who just SCREAMED "HELLO MELBOURNE" into the mic.

"I was watching the live feed on CNN and they said there's about 100 people here. I don't think that's true (smirk)"

[anneboleyn]

9. Where do these people come from? I have no idea why such a crowd would come to an airplane

hanger to cheer on a historically unpopular president with historic lows. Trump is a sitting president now, and he doesn't have anything near Obama's level of popularity when Obama did some post-election events or even Bush II who did some events to promote tax cuts. This isn't even about promoting anything -- just "thousands" gathered to watch this idiot who is already president talk AGAIN about the same shit?!

[forgotmylogin]

14. Maybe he bussed them in...

Or Bannon is paying them.

[kskiska]

102. I read that tickets were advertised

on Craig's List. They all got goodies to attend.

[BannonsLiver]

41. People consumed by hatred for their country and fellow Americans

[Still In Wisconsin]

10. OMG they are playing Wagner?

Are they TRYING for Hitler comparisons?

[mia]

13. It seems like that to me too.

Can't figure out why they would be playing this.

[Brother Buzz]

17. Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries

They used it OFTEN during the campaign

[dalton99a]

21. Hitler loved Wagner.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/classicalmusic/8659814/Hitler-and-Wagner.html

[mia]

18. This post nailed it

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028674199

[dubyadiprecession]

119. I did nazi that coming.

[Still In Wisconsin]

120. You win! n/t

[mia]

11. Here comes the "glorious" music again.

[uppityperson]

15. Are they seriously playing Empire music?

[Brother Buzz]

19. It's Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries

Do you think they would really want pay royalties to Hollywood?

[LittleWoman]

48. My brain just flashed

to the Blues Brothers Movie and the scenes with Henry Gibson as the Nazi--background music was Ride of the Valkyries.

[Brother Buzz]

68. Ah yes, the flying Nazi Pinto

[anneboleyn]

46. The "Empire" music was based on Holst's Planets, "Mars"

[malaise]

20. He just shoved past his wife

on the stairs

[Still In Wisconsin]

22. Battle Hymn of the Republic... how completely insulting.

I am beyond disgusted. And yet I watch.

[Brother Buzz]

23. Extraordinary, he's NOT wearing a necktie

[subterranean]

85. That's gotta be a first.

I don't think I've ever seen him without a suit and tie except when he's playing golf. Another reason we on the West Coast don't trust him!

[Brother Buzz]

109. There was a famous bar in San Francisco

that maintained a pair of industrial pinking shears behind the bar. Yep.....

[demmiblue]

24. Blacks for Trump.

[Maru Kitteh]

26. That is a weird effing cult. Go to the website they have on the signs.

Bizarre shit.

[Glimmer of Hope]

28. What a joke.

http://www.salon.com/2016/10/27/that-blacks-for-trump-guy-at-donald-trumps-rallies-is-even-weirder-than-you-think/

[Maru Kitteh]

25. Would be so cool to have a FLOTUS who could speak fucking English again.

Hell, I'll take Babs back at this point.

[anneboleyn]

43. Imagine if the dems had a first spouse who couldn't speak English well. Melania never says more

than a few awkward sentences. She is not fluent.

[Maru Kitteh]

51. She's barely even intelligible.

I guess they don't talk much. I'll bet you her kid sounds just like her, too. The only Trump I feel sorry for, and maybe just a little, Tiffany.

[kskiska]

105. She supposedly speaks five languages

There's never been any proof of that or examples of proficiency in any of them.

[Maru Kitteh]

113. I would settle for one.

Even if it's a different one, that's fine, at least then we wouldn't have to listen to her mangle ours.

[kskiska]

122. Whatever happened to "English Only"

They would denigrate anyone who spoke a foreign language. Remember the Philly Cheesesteak joint that had a sign instructing customers to speak English? After all, this is America and Engllish is our national language. Now we're reminded that FLOTUS speaks five languages. Wow!

[trof]

27. She talks about "unity" and then "the opposition" in the next breath.

[Maru Kitteh]

31. She wasn't hired for her brains. I think she's proved that abundantly.

[Turbineguy]

29. Found this

https://twitter.com/search?q=rally&ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Esearch

One says there's room for 8,000 people. Well it's a hanger for storing and fixing planes. Other posts say 30,000 and 50,000 people.

[mia]

116. Thank you.

Interesting set of tweets and videos.

[elehhhhna]

30. His brows are too light this week. Lol

Melanoma plagiarized the Lord's Prayer, has to read it off teleprompter.

[Maru Kitteh]

34. I was really amazed he knew what the hell it was.

And then . . . . "I didn't know she was going to do that."

WTF . . . You guys didn't chat on the plane? Color me SHOCKED.

[coco22]

115. He knew lying his ass off

I wonder how many weeks she had to practice.

[uppityperson]

118. It was amusing that she had to use notes for that. If you're going to pretend to be a

Christian, memorize the Lord's prayer.

[kskiska]

121. The Lord Prayer was a cute touch

Must have been Bannon's idea. How did they miss the Pledge of Allegiance and the Star-Spangled Banner?

[anneboleyn]

32. No tie, likes he's thirty, with a flabby fat neck

[JenniferJuniper]

33. He literally was giggling when Eva Braun started with the prayer

WTF

[MattP]

35. Why should CNN and Msnbc carry this idiot badmouthing them

[Eyeball_Kid]

126. The question of the day!

[rzemanfl]

36. I can't watch this. n/t

[trof]

38. Hoo boy. It's the presser on meth.

Hate the media.

[mia]

39. The attack of the media

He just can't give this up

[Maru Kitteh]

40. "The White House is running SOOO SMOOTHLY, Believe me"

[narnian60]

47. You lie!

[mia]

42. He's frothing at the mouth

I could almost feel the spittle

[manchu]

44. He's losing his crowd lol

Aside from the token latino sitting there giggling hysterically the crowd looks confused... especially when he mentioned fiat and Chrysler bringing back jobs

[mia]

50. Crowd reflects his nonsensical propaganda.

He's losing his train of thought.

[nikibatts]

45. How big is the crowd, really. They are only showing people behind him. Obviously paid

stooges. "Blacks for Trump 2020." Give me a break.

[tavernier]

49. Has the media ever before filmed a US president masturbating,

because this is what they are making the American ppl watch today.

[JohnnyLib2]

53. OMG!

[manchu]

54. lmao .. this is hilarious

So he even cut his buddy Prime Minister Abe in on the deal with the fighter jets... GTFOH..

[Miles Archer]

55. It's like watching Andrew Dice Clay. I'm waiting for him to say "Little Boy Blue...OH!"

Patting himself on the back for his beautifully running Boeing deal and PM Abe, who by the way is a great guy, who thanked him, OK? That's good. OK. I know the media will never thank me so Japan thanked me and that's good.

[manchu]

58. He needed the money oh!! lol

Funny shit.. too bad this rally wasn't meant to be comedy

[underpants]

82. That's a good comparison

[Maru Kitteh]

56. His crowd is passing the time by waving at themselves on TV

[font size = 6] I LOVE THE POORLY EDUCATED! [/font] ~ Donald J Trump

[Jim Beard]

57. Whose is Bevis and Butt Head behind him?

[demmiblue]

59. Those two dudes behind him... that is going to piss him off.

They are really distracting!

[narnian60]

69. They're still at it!

[Still In Wisconsin]

60. "We're going to un-free those companies...they're gonna have freedom!"

Um, wow.

[manchu]

61. they even brought the ringer in.... with the ready made speech lmaoo.... this is great! n/t

[nikibatts]

62. Well i found out about the crowd. "A massive room full."

[anneboleyn]

63. Now he invited a mentally ill man onstage to speak (not a joke). Trump's security keeps trying

to take the guy off stage. This is as much as a shitshow as the fine-tuned machine Trump White House.

[kskiska]

123. He's the new Joe the Plumber.

[mia]

125. "...says he salutes, prays for, talks to 6-ft cardboard Trump every day"

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028675482

[JenniferJuniper]

64. Random drunk dude pal terrifies Secret Service

sweet jesus...

[anneboleyn]

88. For which TRUMP criticized the secret service. He is such a dickhead

[Satch59]

66. Pruitt.."he'll do so good..."

Where did he learn English?? And now that we've seen Miller, we know he writes his speeches...all makes sense...such bullshit...

"We know our people..." His 38%... What happened to being president of America??

[demmiblue]

67. All the way back to the fences. What fences?!

[anneboleyn]

70. Just criticized the secret service for not wanting to let the guy onstage -- "they don't like this

but we know our own people" The man looked well rather unbalanced.

[anneboleyn]

71. The two guys behind Dump are WAY more entertaining than the Orange Fuck

[JenniferJuniper]

74. They got 100 bucks each and get to be on TV!

[rzemanfl]

72. Now he's a lawyer? What a fuckwad. "We did very well with women?" n/t

[Brother Buzz]

73. This is absolutely the cheesiest fraudulent stagecraft I've ever seen

That is all.

[underpants]

84. Have you ever watched pro wrestling?

His rallies are pure Vince McMahon.

[Brother Buzz]

100. Speaking pro wrestling, have you seen the orange anus bodyslam Vince McMahon?

[underpants]

108. He's in the WWE Hall of Fame

Yes I've seen that. I am certain that McMahon advised him on his whole campaign theme. Trump did a "heel" act.

His rallies were wrestling shows:
Big show comes to town
Everyone gets to rant and rave (probably hammered)
Trump plays both hero and heel
Involves his family - differently than McMahon does
Sprinkle in some violence - some was pretty clearly staged

His intro at the convention was a complete ripoff of the Undertaker

[adigal]

75. I would laugh...it's a propaganda carnival barker routine...but 38%

Still approves of this completey narcissistic fool. They cheer the loss of their healthcare, their environmental protections, their children's education. And there is NO guarantee we will win this battle.

I really do understand Nazi Germany now.

[mia]

90. Well said.

Hard to believe that it could happen here.

[adigal]

98. We have always loved the circus and snake oil salesman 🐍 nt

[anneboleyn]

76. Your Russian servant will KEEP YOU SAFE! Promise! From the evil Muslims! Trust Vlad! I mean me!

[bettyellen]

77. He keeps referring to "what happening" or "happened" and i guess people are just filling in the

Blanks with their biggest fears.

[elehhhhna]

81. Sweden and Brussels wtf?

[bettyellen]

107. Sweden is about the blonde gals his base fantasize about replacing their wives with...

Of only those women understood these Florida men aren't the crazy uneducated losers with guns they appear to be!

[Maru Kitteh]

78. KU-THUMP . . KU-THUMP . . . Melania goes under the bus . . . .

"My wife said; (talking about polls) 'What's wrong with you and women?'"

Yeah, I don't think she was talking about the polls Donnie.

[underpants]

80. Nice grab

[anneboleyn]

79. Oh my god. The two guys are stealing the show, making faces at the camera, pointing at camera and

laughing, making hilarious gestures every time Dump says something.

[HipChick]

87. Lol!

[Quayblue]

93. I think they're doing this on purpose lol

I'm watching on mute just to watch these guys.

[mia]

83. Tactics of delay and obstruction

The Republicans showed us how this is done for the last eight years.

[anneboleyn]

86. Sweat is pouring down his face. He looks so bloated. The guys behind him are at it AGAIN, LMFAO

[HipChick]

89. I am waiting for them to put a V sign behind his head..

[Miles Archer]

91. He's going to replace CHAZZ-EMS of distrust!

It's KAZ-ems, dork.

[dalton99a]

106. Maybe he was referring to his intergluteal cleft aka butt crack

[procon]

92. He's not been able say what he's actually accomplished, he just reciting a laundry list

of things he like to do at some point in the distant future... maybe. The crowd is eating up his lies like bullshit candy.

[HipChick]

94. fuck that...he'll just have to count me out...

[adigal]

95. He is doing this to distract - something big is coming

And he, and McConnell, and Ryan, and McCain and all,of the other Trump ass-lickers can do nothing to stop it. That is why he is trying desperately to delegitimize the media and judiciary. I think he knows he is done and is flailing for his life.

[kskiska]

96. Same old, same old

Nothing new here. Just a retread from the campaign.

[Miles Archer]

97. It's over, and...

they played about 5 seconds of the Stones' "You Can't Always Get What You Want" before reprising Wagner's "Ride."

[marybourg]

110. Well, he's not going to get a

cease and desist letter from Wagner's lawyer.

[demmiblue]

99. Melania was repulsed when he tried to hold her hand. n/t

[adigal]

101. Where's the hook? He is never getting off the stage! Real work

awaits.
Christ. He needs to go. We wont survive him.

[onethatcares]

103. oh dog

[AgadorSparticus]

104. Look at how Melania dutifully walks 6 ft behind him. Ugh.

No wonder she can barely stand it when he touches her.

[smirkymonkey]

111. I'm sorry, but WTF?

Am I going insane or was that just the most fucked up thing I have ever seen?

[marybourg]

112. Thanx all! I never could have

watched it, but I enjoyed reading all your commentary.

[Mr. Ected]

114. Getting America Back to Work? Are you shitting me?

How about getting yourself back to work, you lazy slimeball? Running away from the office every single weekend? What a lightweight.

And by the way....Obama already got America back to work. You just don't believe in facts.
