President Trump held a rally in Wilkes-Barre, PA, and he CRUSHED it. I love watching his rallies. They’re so entertaining, and you can tell he truly enjoys it. It’s like a recharge. He LOVES talking directly to the American people and bypassing the #FakeNews media.
Speaking of #FakeNews, Trump doubled down. During one part of the rally, he told a quick story to demonstrate how MSM lies about just about everything. He talked about how he met with the Queen, got there early and visited for an hour because they all got along so well. MSM’s version? Trump got there late and overstayed his welcome.

The “fake, fake, disgusting news.” Jim Acosta’s gonna hate that one!
There were a lot of funny and entertaining parts, but this was definitely one of my favorites. Trump was talking about how the Democrats oppose everything he does and came up with a BRILLIANT way to finally get them on board with the wall.
“Anything I want, [Democrats] want to oppose…I’ll just say, ‘I don’t want to build a wall’ and they’ll insist on building it.'”
HA! Perfect!

Here are some more highlights. (Keep in mind that Aaron is a butthurt lib. Just watch the clips.)

Trump says he threatened the head of state of a NATO country with the possibility of not coming to their defense (as the US is obligated to do) unless they increased their military spending. He then pivots to more bashing of the media. pic.twitter.com/ZYOZK6FQdX

I love watching Trump in his element. He’s actually a really funny guy. MSM mistakes his sense of humor for stupidity, and it’s a darn shame.
