    Good. I hope he has a rally and gets it.


    I can't wait for Trump to rail on about the good folks in the KKK in Tulsa, on juneteenth.

    Really WTF!

    1st why are you holding a rally in OK to begin with when they are deep red and then on juneteenth?

    Somebody needs to get that gun out of Trump's hands before all his toes are gone.

    Trump is really just going all in on his racist base and hoping they can carry him to victory huh?

    it must pain him to have to try and pretend that he actually cares about George Floyd’s death

    I doubt Trump is aware of Tulsa’s racial history and he probably doesn’t remember that the 19th is Juneteenth. He’s going there because his and his campaign want to Get back into things with a deep red state with a friendly crowd.

    Facts have a liberal bias.

    This is true and just shows you how incompetent his staff is.

    Or maybe it's actually a Juneteenth celebration?

    Got to get that black vote out somehow.

    More Big Red please.

    Y’all really believe his staff doesn’t know?

    He is surrounded by incompetence, but a coincidence like this? I don’t think so

    they will say they just wanted to get the campaign started in some deep red state (just so happened to be in Tulsa on June 19th) as a convenient cover story

    Trump and his staff know all the dog whistles to rile up and please his racist base

    Yes I guess it’s possible that they are aware it is Juneteenth and they think they can spin it. They might bring out Ben Carson, Candace Owens or Sheriff David Clarke

    Don't really think Juneteenth is a dog whistle not a lot of people even know its a thing, especially outside Texas.

    I really think this is mostly incompetence.

    There are people who really think that Trump holding a rally in Tulsa on Juneteenth isn't a signal to racists.

    This is too racist even for Trump's standards.

    They know, they are intentionally picking the location and date for their rally as a cynical plow to claim they are on the side of blacks

    And that article was written a month ago....

    The fact he has gone almost 10+ days without once addressing the country in a Presidential speech is a dereliction of duty. Regardless of what one thinks of Reagan on one end and Obama on the other, each of them would have provided much needed "presidential" words.

    To be fair, he has a much higher chance of burning the whole thing down with his flaming rhetoric. He will say something to the effect let’s make America great again, like it was in the 1850s.

    Oh...I don't disagree with that. There is no way in holy hell he can ever come across as empathetic and "soothing".

    Especially not with his planned “rally” on Juneteenth in Tulsa. It’s not even dog whistles anymore. SS? Come on!
