Get up: Trump demands farmers give him a standing ovation at Nashville speech

https://www.rawstory.com/2018/01/get-up-trump-demands-farmers-give-him-a-standing-ovation-at-nashville-speech/#.WlSUcSjpQ40.twitter

President Donald Trump on Monday commanded an audience in Nashville, Tennessee to stand up to applaud him.

While touting the recently enacted tax reform legislation during an address at the American Farm Bureau Federation, Trump said Americans would now be able to “keep your farms in the family” because of changes to the estate tax.

“Get up,” Trump said as the audience started clapping.

A real dicktater has goons who do that sort of thing who beat you up if you don't stand. /sarcasm off.
