Hiw sign on the podium gradually started slipping down on the right side, finally hung straight down, then fell off completely. It was a little distracting, and I wished somebody could have fixed it but if anybody tried to get on the stage, there would be a problem.
I marvelled at how Trump, although probably coming out of a cool plane, never seemed to break a sweat in his suit with jacket, shirt and tie. His SS detail all had hot suits on, too. I felt bad for them and then thought of what our troops in Iraq and other hot places had to endure in the blistering heat.
The speech really kept my attention but it was more of a pep rally than a serious speech. The crowd seemed happy with it. Trump said Hillary had small audiences and said they were queued when to laugh and clap, etc.
I know one of the reporters covering Trump posted a picture of his podium at one rally in Cali which had an air conditioner in it to blow cool air on him to keep him cool.
“His SS detail all had hot suits on, too. I felt bad for them and then thought of what our troops in Iraq and other hot places had to endure in the blistering heat.”
I suspect that most, if not all of those SS guys are ex-military - they also went through that hell. Spending an afternoon outdoors in Phoenix right now is probably the best times of their lives, particularly with Trump, who must be TOTAL BLAST to hang out with.
