Why should the cities let you walk away from your security debts and be hung with them. With "72,000" requests for tickets, you should have plenty of money to pay your rally hosts for protecting your butt.

Your reputation follows you.

stupid rallies in cities that really want him there. He'd be holding them all in Russian cities then. That's where his true supporters hail from, and there wouldn't be any problem with security either.

Driving around and parking in downtown Minneapolis is a nightmare even on a good day because of all the construction. I hope the Trumpers coming into town from Stearns County get stuck in traffic and can't find a place to park and end up just driving around in slow circles in their F-150s with the Trucknutz and confederate flags and can't get their fat asses into the venue at all.

Have not been in there since 03',and could not remember the full house total. Thanks for the info.

Had to make sure everyone knew who the Venue Manager is at this time and his Rethug connections.

In fact, I still think he owes some municipalities for the 2016 campaign. San Diego comes to mind?

You clearly hit a nerve with the MF who has defrauded dozens of cities who hosted his hate rallies. He hasn’t repaid my city from his invasion this time last year. Make him pre-pay!!

for a President to be tussling with a mayor. Except for Trump, he jabs with the mayor of London, UK, too!

Trump stiffs everyone from the lowest paid laborer to the highest paid attorney. Every city should demand payment in advance from Trump.
