Thanks for the report! I was at the Fairfield, CT Trump rally in August 2016 and it was one of the highlights of my life. Also, that rally was historical as it was the last rally that Trump did without a teleprompter. It was also the week that Paul Manafort got jettisoned from the campaign and Kellyanne Conway and Steve Bannon were brought in.
That rally convinced me that Trump was going to win. A deep blue state like Connecticut on one of the hottest days of the year. We were lined up for hours and hours. Thousands of people were waiting outside - couldn't get in.
Just after the rally ended, a massive thunderstorm came through and broke the heat wave. It was a glorious night all around. But was I tired! I was standing up for nearly 12 hours straight.
