JFC. I did not think my little blue city would have to withstand another visit from a tRump.

But it appears that coke boy jr is coming to Missoula to “speak” at the end of the month. Goddamit. I’m so mad right now.

1. Sounds like a golden opportunity for Good Trouble

is being handed to your citizenry.

[MontanaMama]

6. We did it before when TFG defiled Missoula.

We will do it again.

2. SORRY!

I didn't know Missoula was Blue! Visited there, passing thru on western trip w family, had represented Montana Rail Link in rail merger matter (for Interstate Commerce Commission) so actually walked thru the facility.

[MontanaMama]

7. I always think of you, elleng when there is mention of MRL.

Thankfully Missoula is still hippie blue. I don’t think I could shoulder the redness of Montana if not for this refuge. I can’t imagine why Don Jr. would be here other than the GOP is gunning hard for Jon Tester.

3. I'm so sorry, Montana Mama..

💙

[MontanaMama]

8. Thanks my friend.

It feels like such a violation. I am making plans to protest. Count of THAT.

17. Oh can't wait to hear abuot that potest!

4. Bummer!

Last time I was there on my birthday I climbed to top of the M for fun.

Liked your city, Montana is a beautiful state.

[MontanaMama]

9. Hiking the M is a right of passage in Missoula!

Glad you got the opportunity to do it. It’s not the easiest hike….so well done!

[Tree Lady]

16. Thanks when I was younger

Hiked to top of Half Dome so M wasn't so bad. There was some concert there don't even remember who lol.

5. Ugh!

They're back. I hope they get only crappy weather and a poor reception.

[MontanaMama]

10. I know, right?

You’d think they’d visit a Montana city that wasn’t blue. That said…there are plenty of MAGAts here…they’re pretty shy with their red hats these days however.

[2naSalit]

14. Things have toned down a bit around here too.

I hope they get their noses rubbed in it.

I did, on my journey east last week, encounter a pair of former rumpers. They were nice though that's their business they were genuinely nice. But J6 did it for them as the hubby is a vet. Still CS mongers but not voting for the orange guy.

I suspect there's more of that than many re willing to admit.

11. The more I hear about blue Missoula, the more I want to visit.

I mean, as a resident of Greater Seattle, I'm used to beautiful landscapes. But I'd like to visit Montana, and not have to deal with red-state horseshit the whole time.

Maybe someday...

[MontanaMama]

12. You do live in a beautiful part of the country!

I’m in Vancouver, WA often to visit my cousin. The Columbia River Basin is freaking gorgeous!

Missoula is chock full of artists, writers and musicians and still feels like a small town. I’m grateful to have raised my kiddo here.

Come visit sometime! Missoulians are lovely people.

[Aristus]

13. I look forward to it!

[2naSalit]

15. And that's basically true of the western cities...

Out east, they're kinda red.
