The Trump campaign is responding to Hillary Clinton’s characterizing a large segment of his supporters as white supremacists by sending out a photo from a 2015 Trump rally in Dallas and claiming it was his appearance last night in Pensacola, Fla.

The photo, taken at a September 14, 2015 rally in Dallas, has been carefully cropped to cut out the “American Airlines Center” logo and the retired Dallas Stars jerseys hanging in the rafters:

Attn. @EricTrump:

The photo in your tweet about Deplorable Dad's Pensacola speech shows the Dallas Mavs' arena

You're dumber than he is.

“A politician will be successful in direct proportion to his ability to convince a majority of voters that the bullshit he is feeding them is actually whipped cream.”
--Bush the First, 1988


(Not sure of the origin of it, really--whoever wrote it attributed it to Daddy Bush in recognition of the BS he was spewing against Dukakis.)


“And Howdy.”
--Bush the Lesser, 2000


“Believe me.”

I am not really a fan of his personality but that is hilarious and he has been pretty good with some of his Trump attacks.

It's pretty simple. If you aren't deplorable, she isn't talking about you. Are you mad for your deplorable friends or something?

This sums it up, if you are not deplorable, why be upset?

See - this is what happens when you have someone on the campaign staff contributing to a speech or remarks, who understands how things go "viral" and how they can mutate.

In Daphne AL, which is in Baldwin County on the Mobile Bay/Mobile River and considered the "Eastern Shore", is about 54 miles west of Pensacola, that building he actually used is called the Pensacola Bay Center formerly the Pensacola Civic Center, that seats 10K at max.

Never mind the dishonest reporting by Republican acolyte Sinclair Broadcast Group local affiliate WEAR3 of it being "packed to the rafters". According to the picture listed elsewhere, his rally would be generous to have 5,000 people in a deeply Red area.
