Love my incandescents, thank you POTUS. Wisc is psyched!
Me too. I'm in a hotel room tonight with one of those @!#$#$ water saving toilets. Have to flush the damned thing 3 times to get it to completely clear itself. I LOVE the water part.I LOVE the "truth-telling" water talk!
He's now talking about bringing back sinks and toilets that actually flush and dispense water. What a guy! He's talking issues that EVERY American can relate to. Get rid of all these energy wasteful energy saving appliances and bring back stuff that works. And he mentioned LG is building refrigerator and washer plants HERE IN THE US because they don't want to pay the 25% tariff on ones brought in from South Korea. WIN folks. BIG. WIN.
That is amazing!!There are already people lined up for Trump's rally. Here's who they are — and where they came from.
The first people got into line at 4:30 p.m. Monday for the president's campaign rally in Milwaukee on Tuesday night.www.jsonline.com

4-5 minutes
Linda Sorenson and her sister-in-law Elizabeth Sorenson set up their folding chairs, unfolded blankets and a Donald Trump 2020 flag and settled in for the night.
Yes, it's 1 degree above freezing in Milwaukee and yes, the doors for the president's campaign rally don't open for almost 24 hours.
But the sisters-in-law are Trump supporters and love attending his rallies, so they were the first in line behind barricades set up across the street from the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena.
"Our husbands think we're nuts," said Linda Sorenson.
Are their husbands coming to the rally? "Noooooo," they said in unison.
Even though the doors open at 3 p.m. Tuesday, and light snow was in the forecast, a hearty group of Trump supporters decided to get in line the night before to make sure they get in and get a good spot, especially since it's general seating for the rally.
While tickets are free for Trump rallies, not everyone can get in since it's common for more tickets to be issued than space inside rally venues.
Linda Sorenson drove in from Waterford. This is her 10th Trump rally, her first was in West Allis during the 2016 presidential primary. The Sorensons booked a room at the Hyatt across the street and will take turns holding their place in line to go indoors to warm up and catch some sleep.
"It's fun to meet other people who love the president, or like him, as much as we do," said Linda Sorenson. "He's going out almost once a week to meet people. He's exciting. I've voted for other Republicans, but no one I wanted to come out to see."
They brought some cheese and meat sticks to snack on and will walk over to Major Goolsby's restaurant for dinner. The sisters-in-law waited eight hours to go to a rally in December 2016 at State Fair Park and waited 18½ hours, sleeping in their van, for a rally in Elkhart, Indiana, where residents pulled wagons filled with doughnuts to hand out to folks waiting in line.
"I really enjoy the atmosphere," said Elizabeth Sorenson.
Rick Frazier drove from his home in New Bremen, Ohio, and parked his van at a lot across the street. He wore a knit Trump 2020 hat and was wrapped in a blanket. He also brought provisions — pudding, applesauce and oatmeal raisin cookies.
This will be his 18th Trump rally. He has traveled to 15 states for rallies.
"I'm a retired pipefitter and this is what I do," said Frazier, who has been to the last nine Trump rallies. "I'm going to take the next one off, the one in New Jersey."
He comes really early to be one of the first in the doors and stake out a standing spot toward the front of the stage. Once he gets his spot, he can sit down and wait, chatting with others next to him who will hold his spot when nature calls.
"I do it for the camaraderie. Not just to see the president but to meet like-minded people. Some have become lifelong friends," Frazier said.
Erica Smith of Chicago estimates she's been to around 40 Trump rallies including every one in Wisconsin. She booked a room at the Hyatt, too, and is taking turns waiting in line with other people she met, including the Sorensons.
"You meet a lot of cool people," said Smith. "Donald Trump brings us all together. We reunite every time we come together for a rally. I never would have imagined seeing so much of the country."
Tonight's speech is one of his better ones-although I've never seen a ho hum speech from him ever. My seat on the Trump Train is all "wallered in" as old south folks say and I'm ready for another 4 year thrill ride. Because his presidency has been just that-a thrill ride. He trashes the communists, runs and does for the common American like a marathon runner and the Six Million Dollar Man combined, and has gotten the world to realize America is BACK. Leader of the free world again. Oh, and he's put Osama's legacy in the dumpster right where it should be.
And now he's trashing the communists with cold hard facts on how out of touch, vindictive, wealth and power oriented they are. Trashing them badly just stating facts. LOVE it. Wish he'd stop using Abraham Lincoln (may he burn in Hell) as an example of good things though. Abraham Lincoln was NOT a good man (may he burn in Hell).

Gosh I so love sharing a Trump rally thread with you guys. THANK YOU!
BE, I was glad to have you as a steno tonight... sometimes I get caught up in the moment and sit and soak it all in and forget to type... Thank you!

Chief Morales said Monday MPD and its partners won't have any problems handling the increased security for the rally, along with normal staffing for the Bucks game.
"This isn't the (Democratic National Convention)," said Morales. "This is normal. Traffic will be a little congested, but we'll be fine."

Just said he got rid of estate taxes on farms passed on to family. That's big.
Notably, Warren failed to mention the lack of coverage on the topic of immigration — a subject that tops the concerns of many voting Americans. A Gallup poll released over the summer showed 23 percent indicating immigration as the most important problem in the country, the “highest Gallup has ever measured for the issue since it first began recording mentions of immigration in 1993.”I sat here in the break and just made notes about many of the things we didn’t get to talk about tonight: how the disability community is struggling for true equality; how gun violence and active shooter drills worry every mother in this country; how children are living in poverty and seeing their life chances shrink; how trans women, particularly trans women of color, are at risk; black infant mortality; climate change that particularly hits black and brown communities; people who are being crushed by student loan debt; farmers who are barely holding on; people struggling with mental illness.
Warren declared, however, that despite the lack of coverage on the issues she cited, she had a “heart filled with hope.”The topic of immigration was only mentioned by Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in each of their closing remarks, though they merely referenced the topic and did not detail their plans to bring more foreign workers to the U.S.
For the last year, all American voters have repeatedly told Harvard/Harris pollsters immigration is the first or second most important issue — often tied with the issue of healthcare.
