It's going to be quite interesting what happens there. Trump has given a very strong-stiff warning to any protesters, and others. that want to protest and/or disrupt his rally.
A CNN reporter was doing a report from Tulsa yesterday and, while he was reporting, a Trump For 2020 was behind him showing a sigh that read "Fake News". Every time the reporter moved, the person with the "Fake News" sign, moved with him. Then, another guy flipped-off the camera. CNN should've had a muscular security guy there to keep people, with signs, etc., from behind the reporter.
It looks to me like the president is hoping for some kind of violence tonight. Recent Tweet: "Any protesters, anarchists, agitators, looters or lowlifes who are going to Oklahoma please understand, you will not be treated like you have been in New York, Seattle, or Minneapolis. It will be a much different scene!" I hope the Juneteenth supporters know him well enough by now not to take his bait.
When he was in our area he packed the stadium to overflowing every time. Biden was here not long ago and went to an exclusive country club for donations, of course not opened to the public.
Dunno Nancy. I take it for what it is.....a warning. If one sees a fence and it has a No Trespassing or Electrified Fence sign on it, I nor any other smart person would try to go beyond the sign lest one gets arrested or electrocuted. On a more personal basis, I have backed up a few guys around my neighborhood by giving a verbal warning and they have all taken me extremely seriously and definitely didn’t think of my warnings as bait. Now, if the President Didn’t give a stern warning, I do honestly believe that That would be bait. Think about it, a hunter puts out the bait and waits in silence and part of that bait IS the silence.
So you think he has changed? He's always itching to start a fight (between other people), then plays the victim card. The pattern has become so predictable. Listen to the rally speeches sometime. I agree with these guys.
Okay, it’s your reaction to it so all is well. So, in standing with that reaction would this flag also be considered bait?
Would have been the bigliest rally,if them dang anti fa folks hadn't scared all the trumpians away. Some seriously scary folks,those protesters, not like the good 100,000 loyal citizens that managed to fight through the violent,not so fine BLM rioters, just to shine their goodliness on fearless leader. God Bless rump!
Bobby, just what kind of a warning was it? I have always been taught and believe that protest is the highest form of patriotism. It is what this nation was founded on. So just exactly what was the leader of this free nation trying to say? Just what was he encouraging the law of Oklahoma to do? Police through out the nation have been abusing,assaulting,and violating the rights of peaceful protesters all summer long. How much worse can it get? Is he that scared of his own citizenry? Does he not understand that the bill of rights pertains to all. Amazing that conservatives,supposedly the bastion of support for the constitution,will happily stand by and watch our nation go down the tubes, mainly just to over turn Roe vs. Wade. Make no mistake about it Trump cares nothing for our nation, except what ever he can suck out of it. He doesn't give a damn about abortion, gun rights, or the constitution. He only plays the hot button issues that his base laps up like thirsty dogs. Are you really willing to follow satan into hell to prevent an abortion?
One thing that I have noticed, is the totally different focus of the Republicans/ Trump supporters, and the Democrats/ Biden supporters. We who support President Trump really will vote for him because we think that he will be the very best president available to lead this country. People do not line up for several days ahead of time, and even camp out on the cement, for someone that they do not have faith and belief in. While his detractors focus on “doom and gloom”, President Trump always speaks in glowing terms of a future to look forward to, and he inspires his fan base. How many people would camp out to hear Joe Biden speak at a rally ? How many people even GO to his rallies , when he does have one ? The Biden supporters only support him because they hate President Trump, not because they really love Joe Biden or his expertise to become a good president for this country, and think that he is a tremendous patriot. You write many posts that are against President Trump, @Peter Renfro ; but where is your thread about how awesome you think that Joe Biden is, and why he should be our next president ? Can you even answer that question without including something about Trump in your reply ?
When I see that flag I think that most generally the owner has no idea of the meaning,and will invariably misspell the name. It tells me that the displayer is usually interested in his personal rights not being trampled on, but not so much yours or mine. Just my opinion and personal observation Bobby, before you go off on one of your faux outrage rants against me. I am an American too.
No Yvonne I can't. There are many people that would be better than Joe. But even Joe is heads and shoulders above trump. I would vote for anyone even another republican if it would remove this stain from the Peoples House. I see Biden as a man who could smooth over some of the disparities in our nation. You cannot seriously call trump any kind of uniter, except among the worst of our nation. A president is supposed to be the leader of all, not just his base. Trust me I pray every day that this man and his cohorts,Barr,Graham,McConnell Lindsay, Gulianni , etc are consigned to the dust bin of history, and become nothing more than a foot note in our nations great history!
Huh? So, it seems that you write pretty well but do you suffer from some type comprehension malady? Okay, lemme help you out. In short form, the highest elected employee of the executive branch of this great nation, D. Trump, warned folks who wanted to riot and endanger other people that there was a probability that they could get arrested or hurt. Nothing at all to do with legal protests. Nothing to do with baiting someone. He gave the cold hard facts and that’s it. Now, instead of coming out with a whole diatribe of “faux” ignorance due to your personal feelings about one single individual, do try harder to follow along with the real truth. You and I know that running around the political mulberry bush is a stupid game which, forgive me for pointing it out, you like to play.
“Any protesters, anarchists, agitators, looters or lowlifes who are going to Oklahoma please understand, you will not be treated like you have been in New York, Seattle, or Minneapolis,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “It will be a much different scene!” D Trump I see the word protesters in there Bobby. These words from the man himself seem to be quite inclusive. Lumping protester is with the rest. But you go ahead and parse his words for the meaning you want. I for one will believe what my lying eyes are seeing . The statement stands as it is.Plain stark and all inclusive.
