lives for having crowds of people cheering for him. If there were any way in the world he could do the rally, he would. After he loses, I would bet a paycheck he will STILL hold rallies.

He can't physically handle standing and talking for an hour. That's the only thing that would stop him from going.

In the original it sounds like some kind of redneck comfort food.

Shoot, I also misspelled it when I first posted and had to go back to make it Countian. Countian, dammit!

room as Trump. Trump already had to pay people to go to his rallies. I doubt he will be bolstered now that he has the virus. He may have canceled simply because he was not getting the crowd.
