Trump cancels Iowa campaign rally (Too hot in the kitchen!)

Low-energy Trump, #SAD

http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/335407-trump-cancels-iowa-campaign-rally

President Trump has canceled a campaign rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa that was previously scheduled to be held next week.

“Due to an unfortunate change in President Trump’s schedule, we will need to unfortunately postpone the previously schedule rally in Cedar Rapids,” a statement from the Trump campaign read. “President Trump will see you in Iowa very soon.”

Trump’s campaign previously announced the rally last week, which was set to follow Trump’s first trip abroad as president.

Trump last held a campaign rally in Harrisburg, Pa., on April 29, the same night as the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in Washington, D.C.

His handlers better hurry and conjure up what constitutes his scheduling conflict.

There's only one reason I can think he would do that. Something big is going to drop before that. Not a shoe, more like a boot, a really, really big boot. Guess he's saving his money for those upcoming legal fees.

that dft would cancel and chose instead to hunker down in his WAR ROOM bunker wishing to God he'd never been born. Still - damn.

Trump will now be retreating to his war room and communication will be minimal.

Anything he says can and will be used against him in a court of law.

I suspect he'll be holed-up in the oval office, TV remote in hand, anger-eating a whole bucket of KFC extra crispy.

"President Trump knows the shit is hitting the fan. He will be unable to attend the rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa because he will be hunkered down with his personal lawyers developing a strategy to throw whoever he needs to under the bus as to avoid impeachment and possible imprisonment. This includes his corrupt and lying son-in-law, Jared who was secretly meeting with the Russian ambassador. This was totally behind the President's back. President Trump knew nothing about this. Pinky swear."
