Boo!
Trump held a MAGA rally in the park in the Bronx and hardly anyone showed up. He posted a photo of Obama’s rally in St. Louis and claimed that was him in the Bronx. KISS tribute concerts and high school graduations have better turn outs than Trump in the Bronx. As is customary at his other rallies, politicians from the cities Trump shows up in are usually invited on stage but not this time. This was AOC territory. He didn’t even invite the 4 GOP candidates running against her to get up on stage. He accepted the endorsement of indicted gang members who were arrested as part of a 32-defendant, 140-count criminal indictment with charges that included murder, attempted murder, illegal firearm possession, and at least a dozen shootings.
Special counsel Jack Smith sought a gag order from Trump’s judge in Florida, Aileen Cannon, to bar Trump from making statements that could pose a risk to prosecutors and law enforcement after he claimed the FBI tried to assassinate him when they raided Mar-a-Lago in August of 2022. Prosecutors don’t want Trump to be able to keep doing that lest anybody involved in Trump’s prosecution be targeted by the MAGA crazies. This is a smart move by Jack Smith as Cannon most likely won’t grant the gag order so then Smith can appeal to the 11th Circuit, which has reversed her twice already. He has found a way to box her in.
Trump spoke at the Libertarian National Convention at the Hilton Hotel in Washington DC yesterday and got royally booed. Libertarians hate his guts. Why Trump’s campaign thought that making a speech in front of such a hostile crowd was a good idea is anybody’s guess. Before he went on, someone made a motion to “tell Trump to go fuck himself.” The crowd went wild and chanted “Fuck Donald Trump!” The people running the convention came out before Trump and asked the crowd not to boo Trump so the crowd booed them. You can’t tell Libertarians what to do. You can’t impose rules on them. They hate rules. In fact, the screen backdrop on stage read, “Become Ungovernable.”
MAGA Republican Senator Mike Lee got booed off stage when he spoke before Trump.
MAGAs had waited in line for hours to get in to the convention so they could show red hat support for their idol. They raced in when the doors opened and tood the reserved seats for Libertarian delegates then refused to move.
The RFK Jr campaign brought rubber chickens that had “Debate Bobby” written on them hoping people would squeeze them and drown Trump out when he spoke. Security confiscated them but a few made it past the bouncers. RFK says Trump is too chicken to debate him.
When Trump took the stage people booed and booed and booed. Trump has never had to deal with that before. His rallies are carefully staged to make it look like he is wildly popular. He fills venues with friendly people plus the koo koo kult groupies that follow him from town to town. This crowd was nothing like his crowds. Somebody shouted, “Lock him up!” Someone else yelled, “Donald Trump is a threat to democracy!” One guy yelled out, “You had your shot!” Others yelled, “Fuck you” and “You already had four years, you asshole!” They chanted, “Hypocrite!”
The convention planners had presented him with 10 things they wanted him to address in his speech and he blew them off. #2 on the list was Julian Assange. Trump angered the crowd by ignoring Julian Assange.
In the end, the unwelcome interloper only got 6 votes, 5 more votes than Stormy Daniels.
The next day he went to the NASCAR race and sat up in the VIP booth where he waved to a crowd that kept their backs turned to him. They didn’t bother turning around.
Trump posted this morning: “Happy Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard to destroy our Once Great Country, & to the Radical Left, Trump Hating Federal Judge in New York that presided over, get this, TWO separate trials, that awarded a woman, who I never met before (a quick handshake at a celebrity event, 25 years ago, doesn’t count!), 91 MILLION DOLLARS for ‘DEFAMATION’. She didn’t know when the so-called event took place — sometime in the 1990’s — never filed a police report, didn’t have to produce the ‘dress’ that she threatened me with (it showed negative!), & sung my praises in the first half of her CNN Interview with Alison Cooper, but changed her tune in the second half — Gee, I wonder why (UNDER APPEAL!)? The Rape charge was dropped by a jury! Or Arthur Engoron, the N.Y. State Wacko Judge who fined me almost 500 Million Dollars (UNDER APPEAL) for DOING NOTHING WRONG, used a Statute that has never been used before, gave me NO JURY, Mar-a-Lago at $18,000,000 — Now for Merchan!”
Happy Memorial Day? There’s nothing happy or celebratory about Memorial Day. Never forget: Trump called service members suckers and losers.
