Can we seriously talk about the this entire administration is full jackasses who don't know anything about loving politics?

You pulled out of Syria this week. This rally is your loving chance to sell that to the public. You go out there and spend an hour talking about "peace in our time" and "bringing our boys home" and all that poo poo. You do these kind of rallies so you have clips for ads and for Fox News to show for weeks. You try to convince everyone that your giant fuckup was a great move.

But you loving get this meandering, rambling, senile poo poo. He could never stay on message, but he used to have a loving message in his rallies.


I think part of this is that under W, they ran a competent fascist government. Karl Rove had them hitting every single PR beat for 6 years.

i feel like its either Barr or murdoch trying to get the other to bend to their will. barr wants favorable coverage because he is a loving fixer and murdoch knows the SS trump just split in half and is sinking, he knows fox can survive if they kick trump off the life boat and they are probably telling barr as much. murdoch is also probably in contact with the various antediluvian GOP ghouls who are the big money people and i am sure they are souring on trump.

On the bight side, you get to experience first hand what it must've been like to witness a nazi rally at the absolute worst of Hitlers Meth & Syphillis decline.

Appropriately for our era: held in a lovely sports stadium, in a dying unimportant state, packed with paid bodies rather than true believers, and lacking in any of the theatrics which put the Nuremberg rallies into the history books.

You're kidding yourself if you think those weren't actually Trump fans for the most part. Our country has a ton of hosed up Trump loving Nazi sympathizers (and outright Nazis). No, they're not the majority, but there's still quite a lot of them.

As a local government worker I'm going to use the socratic method to get you to say something a little more specific because your question right now as phrased is No.

Is your question, does a municipality have an obligation to make sure violence doesn't occur at a private rally?

Capitol: A building or complex of buildings in which any legislature meets.
Capital: A city designated as a legislative seat by the government or some other authority, often the city in which the government is located; otherwise the most important city within a country or a subdivision of it.




As far as I can see there's two options:
-The bank is bluffing and hopes Trumps enemies won't get enough power to make heads role
-The bank actually creatively lost/destroyed its own data and even if Trump's enemies don't gain the power to make heads roll there are gonna be some auditors/accountants pissed enough that there's gonna be at least an internal audit and someone's head will roll for the headache this produced. It will just be some lower level heads that roll.

In short we have added yet another layer of stupidity onto this...this...mess.

It's not a public event if they have to pay to get in and Trump can toss people out, being his campaign rally.

I can sense what you're getting at I think but being that cops have no obligation to help, the only legal force that can be brought into play here, consistent with most local codes that I know of (IANAL) is if the local government caused harm by negligence, in most cases, police are the only ones assumed to have training to directly act. Which is where these bills are coming from in the first place.

Local governments just tend to be full of people who give a poo poo about human lives.

This depends wildly from government to government. One of my friends' uncles recorded a local city council joking about a corporate fracking for gold. The place is impoverished as gently caress and these people were looking for a hilariously small payout. But the local water table for much of the state would have been poisoned.

Some local governments are generally filled with good people working with limited resources in a largely thankless jobs. But you also have useless seat fillers or people who love sitting on top of their local molehill and abusing the locals.
