Toast of the town
Yesterday former President Trump made a historic appearance at New York's Madison Square Garden. Trump spoke before a packed house at MSG, nearly 20,000 strong. Tens of thousands of supporters had to be turned away. Many notable speakers attended including the former first lady. It was Melania Trump who introduced her husband. New York has not voted for a Republican for president in 40 years and although Trump is not expected to win New York, the speech resonated with many New Yorkers, and we finally got to see Trump at his best.
Trump began his speech by asking the question that President Ronald Reagan made famous: "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?"
The highlights:
"But I’m thrilled to be back in the city I love and thousands of proud, hardworking American patriots. You’re with me. We’ve always been together. And I’d like to begin by asking a very simple question. Are you better off now than you were four years ago?
I’m here today with a message of hope for all Americans. With your vote in this election, I will end inflation. I will stop the invasion of criminals coming into our country. And I will bring back the American dream. We need the American dream to come back home.
Our country will be bigger, better, bolder, richer, safer and stronger than ever before. This election is a choice between whether we will have four more years of gross incompetence and failure or whether we will begin the four greatest years in the history of our country.
We will achieve success that no one can imagine. We will have the strongest economy, the most secure borders, the safest cities, the most powerful military, the best trade deals, and we will dominate the frontiers of science, medicine, business, technology and space.
And I’m asking you to be excited about the future of our country again. I’m asking you to dream big again. We’re going to dream big again. We haven’t been dreaming big at all. This will be America’s new golden age. It’s going to happen quickly too, very quickly."
FULL TRANSCRIPT: Trump's MAGA Rally At MSG, New York City – The Singju Post
The low points:
"Former president Donald Trump hosted a rally where speakers made numerous vulgar and racist remarks inside New York's Madison Square Garden on Sunday.
Speakers at the rally called Vice President Kamala Harris , the Democratic nominee, "the Antichrist" and attacked Hillary Clinton , the Democratic nominee eight years ago, as a "sick son of a b****."
Speakers also made racist comments about Latinos and Black people, both key voting blocs in the election that is just over a week away. Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe branded Puerto Rico a "floating island of garbage," said Latinos love "making babies" and joked about "carving watermelons" with a Black friend for Halloween, while radio host Sid Rosenberg called the event "a Nazi rally."
Donald Trump at Madison Square Garden: 7 Shocking Remarks - Newsweek
As I thought about what else democrats might do in these final 9 days before the election, I forgot one thing: what the Trump campaign might do to itself. Why didn't the campaign vet what those speakers might say or what the so-called comedians might think were "jokes?" Those nasty comments will be what leads the news on the 3 network news stations and 2 cable news networks and an assortment of legacy news organizations. There will only be one cable news station carrying the message from the MSG event.
Fortunately, the democrats have called Trump so many vile things and utilized so many dirty tricks including lawfare, that it no longer seems to matter. Much of America is totally focused on ending the madness of the past 4 years.
In the news:
Israel’s recent strikes against Iran made clear that it is dictating events in the Middle East and the US is left to trying to resurrect a flawed two state policy.
Chinese officials boarded a Vietnamese fishing boat and beat a man with iron pipes in a part of the South China Sea claimed by both China and Vietnam.
Japan’s governing party lost its majority in Parliamentary elections over a finance scandal.
In Western North Carolina, Hurricane Helene’s devastation is making it hard for people to get medical care.
McDonald’s will put its quarter pounder back on the menu after a deadly E. coli outbreak. In some locations, the burger won’t include raw onions on top, the likely source of the outbreak.
CBS still refuses to turn over the full transcript of the Kamala Harris 60 Minutes interview.

Good morning
To our readers:
We have a little over a week to go. Please vote.
(Apparently Michelle Obama is back to not being proud of our country.)
the only thing missing from trump's MSG rally, from a similar type of rally there 80+ years ago, was the swastikas ...
So the Clintons / Democrats have a similar rally and it's fine. Trump does and it's suddenly a bad thing. He hypocrisy is glaring.
Toast of the town? LOL, IMO either Trump will be toast or the USA will be.
"America is garbage"
There has to be context to that truncated phrase.
the context is that the person who says it is projecting his own mental garbage onto the country.
It wouldn't be that open borders make for a garbage can for the rest of the world?
I am asking our readers to sift through all the spin and gaslighting and stay focused on the economy, the borders and safety for our kids.
Does Trump have proof the Congo is emptying their prisons and shipping them off to America, or is he just an openly racist piece of shit?
Trump has said this many times now.
He has no evidence on any of the failed state's that have people entering the US illegally.
A lack of evidence doesn't necessarily mean it is not true.
Why did Biden/Harris let everyone in?
He has no evidence but often says it. Does he ever say Denmark is emptying their prisons and sending them here? Theres no evidence of that either.
Invoking the image of the Congo goes beyond dogwhistle. The Congolese are some of the most dark skinned people on earth
you can use the chat feature to blast all 8 of them to find out ...
economy - how many times has the stock market reached a new high during the biden administration? what's the unemployment numbers and where's the inflation rate at now?
borders - who's the xenophobic asshole that torpedoed the bipartisan border bill so he would have something to campaign on?
kids safety - what's the #1 cause of death for american kids? who has kicked that can down the road for decades?
Please note: Biden couldn't even run on his almost 4 years in office.
please note: maybe you should attempt to convey that to the maga incumbents out there taking credit for biden programs in their districts that they voted against ...
Mostly he says it about Venezuela:
Obviously, it is not about race.
I doubt anyone would take credit for inflation or a wide-open border.
√ trump
√ trump
As far as the open border, Biden has no choice to as long as that EO exists.
The inflation occurred during Biden's time in office. That's his as well.
Joe Biden did that!
Did anyone catch Michelle Obama's dark speech the other day?
Apparently, she decided that the best strategy is to suggest that Americans are racist and sexist for not supporting Kamala Harris.
She only likes America when it does what she wants.
Sounds like someone....
‘’Sounds like someone…’’
Yes it does, Trump.
Ding ding Ding.. We have a winner.
Michelle Obama talks like Trump. I agree.
Not in this lifetime. Trump sounds like a vengeful narcissist who cannot stop the exaggerated lies and insults.
Michelle Obama sounds like a Harvard educated JD.
A world of difference.
At his rally today Trump hinted at retribution coming Michelle Obamas way after she was "nasty" to him over the weekend.
She'd kick his ass in a battle of wits and kick his ass period.
What EXACTLY was that hint?
LMAO, listen up Trump sounds like a 5 year old on speed and Michelle’s sounds like a JD from Harvard.
Most people can tell the difference.
Just like Michele
“I lay awake at night wondering what in the world is going on. The question for me isn't whether Kamala is ready for this moment...the real question is, as a country, are we ready for this moment?” ... Michelle Obama
Are you?
... uh, have you ever actually listened to a trump speech?

Maybe it tips the Black and Hispanic margins more in favor of Harris in key states.

“Use your logic!”
“Insolence is not logic; epithets are the arguments of malice.”

Robert has yet to meet the Harris demographic:
“Robert has yet to meet the Harris demographic:”
But he succinctly describes all things trumpian…
Lmfao! Logic? You're supporting a malignant narcissist and face-painting clown who, among many other things, is a known national security threat, an absolutely disgusting demagogue, a pathological liar, and an oath-breaking tyrant and traitor who (as a sitting president, no less) attacked the republic and tried to usurp power after losing an election.
LOGIC???!!! Donald Trump is the antithesis of everything America is supposed to be and stand for, and the anti-American MAGA cult trying to put him back in power is sickening.
A++ comment.
Virginia Republican officials asked the US Supreme Court on Monday to allow the state to implement a program to remove suspected noncitizens from the voter rolls in one of the first major voting cases to reach the high court ahead of next week’s presidential election.
Virginia asks Supreme Court to permit voter roll purge aimed at suspected noncitizens | CNN Politics
Between this bullshit and the douchebag Andy Harris, saying they should just call N. Carolina for Trump now before the election, and Trump saying, "In four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote." it's no wonder the left is throwing around the term "facism" so much.
If we can only get those 20 million illegals voting, there won't be a need for elections.
It will be a one-party country.
“If we can only get those 20 million illegals voting…”
There are established policies in place to prevent illegal voting. There is no such restriction from trump blasting the integrity of our elections…hence the interminable, specious, and actually dangerous commentary.
So Virginia allows illegals to register to vote? How simple is it for them to vote, but so difficult to catch them and prosecute them? It's just a bullshit ploy from the MAGA Populists to declare election fraud if they lose.
Show us who is checking whether people are citizens on the federal ballot.
The DOJ is currently suing Virginia to allow illegals to vote
Judge blocks Virginia from dropping alleged noncitizens from voter rolls
FYI:
What laws are in place to stop illegal immigrants voting?
The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 prohibits non-citizens - which includes illegal immigrants - from voting in federal elections.
The punishment includes a year in prison, a fine, and possibly deportation.
Every state is required to use a common registration form which requires people to confirm they are US citizens, under penalty of perjury for false claims, but does not require documentary proof.
“That first step of having to tick a box saying you’re a citizen to register to vote is a huge deterrent for illegal immigrants, as it’s hugely risky to lie,” says Jasleen Singh, a voting expert at the liberal policy think tank Brennan Center for Justice.
In many states, voter rolls are cross-referenced with citizenship and immigration services, death certificates, and postal records to make sure that people who are non-citizens, dead, or live out of state are not registered to vote.
“At the polls, there’s a list of eligible voters, and if a non-citizen turns up, they’ll be turned away or told to cast a provisional ballot which will only be accepted if they can provide proof of citizenship,” says Prof Ronald Hayduk, a voting rights expert at San Francisco State University.
Non-citizens are not allowed to vote in state-wide elections either.
You didn't answer my question.
The election officials that are charged with verifying eligibility, verifying signatures, and certifying the integrity of every ballot before being tallied.
Got a beef? Get involved. Get educated. [deleted][✘]
The DoJ is blocking Virginia in purging records rolls so close the the election. No evidence has been produced those rolls have illegals on them. You seem okay with Populists making it more difficult for actual citizens to vote.
The SCOTUS may take it up.
Tell us who verifies the federal bllot?
”Tell us who verifies the federal bllot?”
Whenever a ballot (not bilot) is submitted at each and every county level, it is subject to verification.
Federal, State and local ballot questions are not separately verified and thus all are subject the same level of scrutiny…but you knew that, no?
"Trump has made false statements about noncitizen voters since his 2016 campaign, relying on faulty evidence. He’s revived the talking point in the weeks since the Nov. 3 election, which he lost to Democratic President-elect Joe Biden.
In this case, he has a point that the federal form that registers someone to vote doesn’t require documentation to show proof of citizenship. But Trump left out the efforts by many states to cross-check their records with available data to avoid this problem."
PolitiFact | Do states verify citizenship of voters in federal elections?
Efforts by certain states is another matter. The federal form does not verify.
... mrxists.
Good luck. I highly doubt enough of the justices want to roll in that mud.
Except all the evidence provided by the state of Virginia.
All it has ever been, yet another scapegoat for their loss.
The court says that info was not verified.
Incredible a state has to go to the supreme Court because the Biden Admin and progressive judges won't let the State do its job of removing of removing illegal aliens from the voter rolls.
Because they think the rest of us are as stupid as their base voters. This is nothing but a ploy to yell about voter fraud when they lose again. Roberts isn't going to save them a week out from the election.
Democrats are literally going to court to ensure illegal aliens remain on the voter rolls. There's no innocent explanation for that.
Roberts isn't going to save them a week out from the election.
If you actually believed what you claim, you should want Roberts to act. After all, it wouldn't change the results because zero illegal aliens will vote and it removes the talking point that Virginia allowed illegals to vote.
If the only way Roberts could "save them" is by acting and removing illegal aliens from the rolls and making it clean election then they are absolutely correct in seeking their removal.
or truth
The the VA Republicans couldn't prove there were illegal aliens on the VA voter rolls in court.
Thanks for confirming this is only about paving the way for Republicans to ferment violence if they lose again. If only you were as concerned about the actual legal citizens on the rolls that would be removed...
‘’Why didn’t the campaign vet the speakers’’….Are you fricking kidding, if they didn’t know what type of ‘’jokes’’ he would use they are dumber than a rock. He has a well know reputation so I would think that they knew exactly what was going to be said. Even the MAGA are not that stupid.
... uh, er ...
Did anyone catch Sunday's history lesson?
JD Vance: "If we're ever going to get out of the mess that Kamala Harris left us in."
Kristen Welker: "Donald Trump was president for 4 years while Russia was essentially invading Crimea."
JD Vance: "Oh that's a misunderstanding of the history Kristen. We had Russia invade another country during Obama. We had Russia invade another country during Bush's term. We had Russia invade a sovereign nation during the 'leadership' of Kamala Harris. The one 4 year term where Russia did not launch a full scale invasion of a neighbor was under Donald Trump."
It is hard to believe that Welker's business is "the news!"
Dunno. Seems like the Trump campaign is trying to whip Democrats into a frenzy. If Democrats fall into that trap, they won't be appealing to independent, suburban, or more conservative Democrat voters. Kamala Harris has already wiped Democrats who oppose abortion off the slate. Harris won't be appealing to farm workers doing menial work by sounding like a Venezuelan strongman attacking political opponents.
Democrats frenzied vile bile won't play well in small towns and cities found all over fly-over country. Foaming at the mouth over Fascists, NAZIs, and Hitler might play well in big Blue Islands but they're a turnoff in the forgotten and ignored portions of the country. And Trump is whipping Democrats as hard as he can.
Face it, Trump was never going to win over Blue Island voters. So, Trump needs to keep Democrats on their islands. Why else would Trump be whipping up Democrats? Trump is forcing Democrats to reveal who they really are. Not a pretty picture, is it?
Projection & Delusion - not a pretty picture, is it?
