    Who do you think is telling the truth, Chief?
    Nobody.

    It's not about blaming Trump for them ending up stranded in the cold.

    It's more about Trump setting up these wacky rallies in the first place- DURING THIS PANDEMIC THAT IS RUNNING OUT OF CONTROL AGAIN IN MOST STATES!

    You want to know why it is also so stupid- TRUMP's Supporters has not changed. His supporters that voted for him in 2016 are mostly all still going to vote for him again in 2020.

    Here is the problem- Trump's Rallies are just Thunderdomes for throwing red meat at a bunch of yelping chihuahuas anyway- as Trump does not use his Stump Speeches to attract anyone new that has never voted for him.

    There are only so many stupid people or politically corrupted people in America- AND THEY ARE ALREADY VOTING FOR TRUMP THE IDIOT!

    This was NOT the best planning, not to leave people stranded in 13 degree weather for 1.5 hours. There is no excuse for that.

    He wanted the job.

    He takes the heat.

    If he doesn't like it he should do us all a big fat favor and quit.

    Planners have to care in order to plan for something. More likely they were more worried about fixing up Trump's green room along with refreshments and a big screen tv.....and a nice clean mirror for him to snort his Adderall off of before the rally.

    Agreed. Anyone one who takes a professional job then whines about it is an idiot one way or another.

    I've ran into a few like that over my career.

    Trump seems to think the media should 'go easy on him.'

    He doesn't want to be asked 'tough questions.' (calls that 'asking nasty questions.')

    Are you kidding me?

    He thinks the media should go easy on the president?

    On what planet is his brain?

    NO!

    We don't want the media 'going easy on' the president, like that's EVER been a problem!

    It is the media's job to scrutinize the president, look for anything we, the people, might disapprove of. They have the roll of informing the public of what is going on and how the president is doing in his job, in which he works for all of us, ostensibly. (It would be news to him.)

    The media is the 4th estate.

    It never has been known to, and never should, 'go easy on' the president.

    He's actually joking about the threats to a sitting governor's life.

    At least seven people were taken to hospitals, according to Omaha Scanner, which monitors official radio traffic. Police and fire authorities didn’t immediately return messages from The Washington Post early Wednesday and declined to provide reporters on the scene with precise numbers of how many needed treatment.

    Soon, officers were radioing in about numerous elderly attendees struggling in the cold, according to Omaha Scanner. Police began shuttling some people to their cars to get them out of the elements.

    “As we were walking, I saw at least two Omaha Police officers helping people who were getting cold, one elderly lady and a young boy,”

    If this had happened at a Biden rally they could have put all of his supporters in a Smart Car,
