Crowds gather ahead of Trump rally in Rochester (MN)

Hundreds of people lined up outside Mayo Civic Center in a chilly breeze Thursday morning for a chance to see President Donald Trump at an evening campaign rally.

T.J. Jergenson, 65, a retiree from Alexandria, Minn., left home at midnight for the long drive. He snagged a spot a few hundred people back in line.

“We need to support our president,” Jergenson said. “He’s a businessman. He knows where to spend money and where not to.”

The crowd was lively and festive. Some brought chairs and coolers for the wait. “We want Trump” cheers broke out sporadically and the song “Macho Man” was part of the soundtrack. There was a “YMCA” singalong.

Several vendors were selling T-shirts and buttons. “Trump 2020” was a hot seller.

“It’s history” is how John Gordon described why he drove from Ellendale, Minn., to be part of the throng. “I just want to hear what he’s got to say.” Gordon, 60, works at an Owatonna glass business.

W lost both MN and WI by 10,000 votes each, it hasn’t been 45 years, but your point is still valid.

Do you think the president has that info? If he does it may be prudent to wait. May be some key repubs on the list.

I used to watch the President’s rallies Fox Business as Lou Dobbs always break to them during his show. However, they have not aired the last two or three. Do you know of anyone who carries them live? Thank you in advance.

Also, once the live thread gets posted here later today, there will be multiple links posted. I usually go with the direct youtube feed, it seems to be the most robust.

Trump needs his own TV station, TTV. FOX is starting not to show thee rallies and they are better than anything else on TV.
