Arizona's 'Trumpstock' Festival Featuring Senate Candidate Who Ran Revenge Porn Website Is Denied

Arizona's 'Trumpstock' Festival Featuring Senate Candidate Who Ran Revenge Porn Website Is Denied City Permit

By David Brennan On 10/5/19 at 4:38 AM EDT

Plans for a Trump-themed festival in Arizona had to change at the last minute after local police officials denied the event a permit over security concerns.

"Trumpstock" was originally slated to take place at the Mohave County Fairgrounds in Kingman. But it will now be held at a pizza restaurant instead.

The event due to take place this weekend is organized by Laurie Bezick, a staunch supporter of President Donald Trump. Among the "special guests" is a 2020 Senate candidate who previously ran a revenge porn website.

"Through the vetting process, it was determined that she failed to meet the requirements of obtaining a special event permit, specifically security requirements," said a statement by the City of Kingman.

I guess they're anticipating quite a crowd if it's going to be held at a pizza restaurant.

can now breathe a sigh of relief that their native habitats will not be encroached upon and overrun with unwelcome and hostile MAGAt creatures.

There were problems with their insurance and security.

However, the article states the pizza place has around 3.5 acres of land attached, so it isn't a small venue. But they're charging $25 per day. The speakers all sound low class.


Maybe they'll lose money. Maybe they won't. Who knows who will pay to go to that?? I can't predict anything anymore.
