Trump will not be doing many more public appearances because his handlers know that he is too thin skinned to have more people protest him than go to see him and he may 'explode' if he see such.

their absence from duty with fake and often made-up talk of the mighty war machine of America.

I'm not a bike rider and if I was I'd probably ride a harley just cause of its history but their bikes are not worth what people pay for them. I see good 1 to 3 year low mileage harleys ads from 1/2 to 1/3 of what they cost new. Low miles too.

in the campaign.

The media narrative of Trump working tirelessly in Wisconsin and Michigan while Hillary ignored them is pure bullshit. But making that story up is the only way they can trick the American people into not realizing that the election was all about the FBI rigging the system for the Republicans.

And that is not democracy.

It is a tradition that the last big Dem rally of the campaign is held the weekend before the election in Madison, WI. Gore had a huge rally on the Capitol Square in 2000. Kerry had an even bigger rally in 2004. Obama missed this in 2008 because is grandmother was dying. He was here in 2012.

Hillary broke the tradition.

The trip was announced. Shortly afterward many many posts on facebook about organizing protests around the visit came online. Harley Davidson said it was canceling the visit because the company did not want to deal with the protests. It's not that the company disagrees with Trump but at least they have responded to the people.

Keep Protesting, keep marching, keep calling, keep visiting your reps. Do not stop. It is very important to remember this is a marathon not a sprint. Be in better shape than those in office.

I have a feeling he will spend a lot of time cowering behind the curtains of the White House or Trumpf Tower.



How long before he prohibits protests during his visits anywhere?
