There was thuggery as protesters inside and outside the arena were roughed-up by Trumpists.
Trump had weirdly yellow hair tonight.
- Mike Pence's manner of public speaking will never not be deeply bizarre to me.
- Pence praises Trump for legislation that was signed into law by President Obama in 2014
- Two and half years into Trump's presidency, Pence says, "we have already started to build that way."
- Pence falsely claims "leading Democrats" are "defending infanticide"
- PENCE: "It's going to take at least four more years to drain that swamp."
- Trump begins his speech by reveling about how Democrats purportedly "spent more time attacking Barack Obama than they did attacking me" during the debates, then immediately goads the crowd into booing the media.
- We're just minutes into Trump's speech and he's already told a double "sir" story
- Trump attacks Democrats who have been elected in America's "inner cities."
- "We can name one after another but I won't do that, because I do not want to be controversial," he says.
- Trump's speech is interrupted by a protester right after he bellows, "572 people were murdered in Chicago last year!" (His suggestion is that this is Democrats' fault.)
- Wow -- while his speech is being disrupted by a protester, Trump checks with someone in the audience to make sure Cincinnati has a Democratic mayor (you can hear this on the mic). When he's told it does, Trump repeatedly calls out, "Democrat mayor!"
- Trump has now made shitting on Baltimore part of his campaign speeches. Echoing someone in the crowd, he claims the homicide rate is higher in the city than Afghanistan.
- "Lock her up" chants after Trump brings up Hillary Clinton
- The president of the United States craps on California for having homeless people and poverty
- Trump and his fans have a laugh after Trump mocks the condition of Bob Mueller, a war hero and longtime former FBI director
- Trump bemoans judges who recuse themselves for conflicts of interest in cases involving him
- According to @Yamiche, in this clip Trump and his fans turned and clapped at a group of black supporters. Trump had just boasted about low African American unemployment rates.
- Trump offers an interesting historical interpretation of the fall of the Soviet Union: "Remember the Soviet Union? When it was all together. Before they decided, 'we have to call ourselves Russia.'"
- Trump mockingly mimics Joe Biden
- Trump demeans undocumented immigrants who show up to court hearings as "not the smartest."
- "We're keeping them out altogether," he says.
- This is Trump's conception of how the visa lottery works. His ignorance is stunning.
- Trump takes credit for Veterans Choice legislation that was signed into law by President Obama in 2014
- Trump just promised to cure cancer. Yes, really.
- Trump ends his speech on a fittingly incoherent note.
- "We are making America great again, and with your vote in 2020, we will keep America great!"
- The protester was booed out of the building and nearly beaten up for hoisting an "Immigrants Built America" banner. Trump rallies are obscenely ugly affairs.
