Will you be watching the Trump rally this evening, nurseangela?
Some of the live streams are already up and running in advance,
as the crowd gathers ...

Well, you can always go back and watch the rally later,
although it's not quite the same as in real time,
and a real-time online experience
isn't quite the same as being there.

It's how he gets around the very fake news media and communicates directly to the people.

And you can bet little Kim is noticing.

Yeah, I like hearing directly from him----but, like you said, I don't want him showing his hand; but, in retrospect, I guess that wasn't too bad.

I LOVE that you call him Lil' Kim----it just cracks-me-up----I wonder if he can rap, TOO (since he seems to like to think of himself, as "Boy Wonder")! ! LOL

President Trump's tweet was a well-placed strategic move,
fully intended to be seen by North Korea and China, as a matter of fact ...
Because in Asia, respect is huge.
So Trump hit little Kim right where it hurts,
meanwhile praising China, whose President Xi Jinping he met with recently,
and got along with quite well, to the point where China has been
cooperating with us far more than usual since the meeting.

Wish I could take credit for the nickname Little Kim,
have seen it around on a forum
much friendlier to those on the right.

What I've heard about Kim Jong Un is that while he was a student,
he was hugely interested in basketball,
and artistically drew pictures of his favorite players, quite talented that way.
But following his father's footsteps as North Korea's dictator,
he had to give up his dreams ...
which might explain his apparent rage at the world.

In their first 100 days Obama took 4 days off and W.Bush took 16 days off. Trump has taken 25 days off, a quarter of his time in office.

^^ No. 1, I don't consider all the time that President Trump spends at Mar-a-Lago, for instance, as "taking off", because it has been said, more-than-once, by several different, official people, that he was working----and, no.2, NO U.S. president ever, really, "takes-off", as his job is 24/7 (even if he goes golfing, to the beach, goes home, whatever, he must remain on-call, at ALL times).

I find it bizarre that people take what 4+ hours to go see this guy.

Maybe they have free food ?
