If you’re going to a Trump rally armed, pay attention to what the Secret Service permits and what they ban. One nice accessory to carry is a cane (one without a sword, and not modified with lead weight or anything else that would show intent in a hostile jurisdiction), if you know how to use it, since canes are always permitted. A cane made of heavy wood and designed to be sturdy is a wonderful thing.

A cane may be the only option. From what I’ve read, no weapons of any kind, pepper spray or mace are allowed into Trump’s rallies. Rally goers are almost completely vulnerable when they leave the venue.

“A cane made of heavy wood and designed to be sturdy is a wonderful thing.”

Interesting idea. Would want to get one made from a hard, dense, durable wood, though. Something really tough.

Metal canes are hollow, can be extended, and effective when the rubber tip is removed. I have used my rolling walker to great effect, also.

They even make them with side handles, just like a PR-24.

If you can't bring this Shillelagh

Bring this one.

The thugs will likely not see it for the weapon it can become.

If you're considering a cane I suggest one of these. Be sure to watch the videos. :) (BTW the prices are MSRP. You should be able to get them for not much more than 1/2 of list price.)
