Donald Trump's rally at Lakefront Airport Friday (March 4) doesn't have everyone in New Orleans singing a happy tune.

The music magazine Offbeat reports that a group of local musicians plan to protest Trump over his promises to deport 11 million undocumented workers and ban Muslims from traveling to the United States, among other policy proposals, by conducting a second line parade at the airport's entrance.

Trump is due in New Orleans to attempt to drum up support before Louisiana's March 5 presidential primary on Saturday....

Once he get the nomination, Trump protests will continue to be news. But the press will stop giving him free airtime. They public will only hear bad things about htim. That is how they will destroy him.

***holes are a dime a dozen these days. These clowns need to shut up and just toot on their horns. They’ll be playing a different tune when the Mariachis come in and steal all of their gigs.

11 million undocumented workers is actually 40 million illegal aliens.

It was a lot more than 11 million ten years ago when Dubya & Co. tried to get us to think it was a lot less.
It’s important to keep in mind, as Ann Coulter pointed out in “Adios Amerca” the one issue both parties agreed would not be debated in public is how to deal with the invasion.
And then Trump came along ... and it was ‘Adios Yeb Bush’.

He should have come to Shreveport or Monroe. The musicians up north just play music.

So Trump has lost the Mariachi vote in the chocolate city?

That’s doubtful

Union bosses may say one thing but union workers know another thing
Trump builds stuff that creates lots of jobs

Okay so you’re saying that because Trump builds things, his plan to deport the illegals(which I am good with) will get him the mariachi vote? How many Mexican restaurants and cantinas can Trump build to employ the leftover mariachis, and in the chocolate city no less.

I wonder if the story is even true.
What might be happening here is that the musicians are going to play and put out their donation boxes (or empty instrument cases).
Offbeat simply made up the story about the protest.
