Pittsburgh Public Safety: Traffic will be 'major concern' Wednesday for T-rump's visit

Another factor to consider is the presence of protests.

"The protest groups that we are aware of have reached out to us, to work together to keep things safe and peaceful, and that's our goal. As a city, we're very tolerant of protests. The First Amendment right of the public is very key to this country. One thing we won't tolerate, however, is violent protesting and damage," said Police Cmdr. Ed Trapp.

The mayor's office said the police costs for the Trump visits in April 2016 and September of 2016 were calculated at $164,000 for police overtime at the two events.

Pittsburgh shouldn't let a self proclaimed sexual predator into the city.

I'm thinking about going down town and demonstrating against that prick.
