I bet they shook hands properly. It just makes personal relations so much easier. :)

Pres Trump has arrived in Louisville for political rally tonight for his agenda. He won Kentucky handily in November: 62.5% to 32.7%.

FFS! Another rally tonight!!! Shameless!

Ivanka's probably the only one who can get him to take his meds & talk him down from his tantrums. It's highly irregular, but perhaps she's our last line of defence against MAD (twitchy red button finger).

November schmovember. How about you actually get on with the day job, Donnie?

But, isn't she the "First" Lady? No she isn't!

Speaking of FLOTUS, has she been seen recently? Or do we think she's officially avoiding POTUS and getting away with it?

And what the fuck is he doing on a campaign rally? AGAIN? He has moved on from staring at the floor refusing to shake hands, to sticking his fingers in his ears and going 'La la laaaa I can't hear you' at the shitstorm that is happening all around him. It's bizarre.

I believe that the Freedom Hall is right next to the airport - he'll be able to do the whole Airforce One thing if so.

GingerIvy · 20/03/2017 23:17

Mort She is not talking him down, she is right there in the thick of it. She is just as complicit in his dealings as he is. Note she says she has been advising him for years - and note the decisions he has made. She is no better than him. She just hides it better.

There are teleprompters on the stage at the Trump rally tonight. The question is how much they will be used.

illegitimateMortificadospawn · 20/03/2017 23:20

OK, in that case we're royally fucked.

GingerIvy · 20/03/2017 23:21

Rally on here. For those with strong stomachs.

Rand Paul is apparently not attending the rally. He's gone back to DC.

GingerIvy · 20/03/2017 23:22

He's setting up his entire circle like he's fucking royalty. And he's trying to line up Ivanka to inherit the throne.

UnGoogleable · 20/03/2017 23:23

Are you sure? Eeew creepy. But yeah, she might as well be. I agree, she's right in there with him, always has been.

I hope Trump goes off script and does another crazy rant, although he seems to perform better at his campaign rallies as that's his comfort zone. Which is why he keeps doing them.

I think Trump is bitterly disappointed that this Presidenting is not at all fun, and he hankers back to the fun old days of his campaign where he could stand in front of cheering crowds. So he keeps doing that and just avoids all the boring running the country stuff.

GingerIvy · 20/03/2017 23:25

I don't think he'll stick to script - he's fuming about today, I'd bet money on it. He'll veer off and start ranting, I suspect. I'll be very surprised if he doesn't.

cozietoesie · 20/03/2017 23:26

Sorry, Ginger. Thanks for the link and all - but my stomach.............

illegitimateMortificadospawn · 20/03/2017 23:26

If he keeps dicking about, the cheering will turn to jeering and then rallies won't be any fun at all.

LOUISVILLE -- First shouts of "fake news" tonight come from people in the upper deck who are tossing wadded up paper at a CNN cameraman

UnGoogleable · 20/03/2017 23:30

I think the audience at the rallies are chosen so that they're very unlikely to do any jeering, and those that did would get kicked out very quickly.

I do hope he goes on a rant fest, and gets into trouble for discussing a live investigation. Oh please do something even more stupid Trump.

Perhaps they've moved past the 'give him enough rope' scenario, to a full on 'give him rope, a few loaded guns , some matches and a chainsaw... then stand back' scenario
