Trump Ramping Up The Hate Rhetoric/Increasing Number Of Rallies/Inciting The Base For November

Notice that we are seeing more rallies. Notice the timing of these rallies. Look for more and more frequent and strident even hysterical rallies moving forward. And look for explosive rhetoric if the Mueller investigation looks like it will bear really damaging fruit.

His lack of words (even the best ones), the way he sometimes forgets names and places or even who Melania is - it all points to pre-alzheimer's and it's only gonna get worse !

I just went through this with both of my parents. It is frightening how quickly one can slip from lucid to demented and paranoid, dangerous irrational anger.

He's got to go. The republicans will not do anything to control him and will not even mandate a proper medical examination, how can we expect the to support impeachment? They have cast their lot.

on the same level. Can Democrats hold rallies from town to town with the same media attention and public exposure? We need strong leadership now, getting out in front of cameras daily and making strong opposition statements!

and we may need to have our own newsmakers. Maybe Michael Avenatti and some others will fill that role. Our side needs to say some outrageous but true things and to fight back.

I'd like to know how many of these folks are regulars, attending many of these rallies. I'd like to know if any of these folks have also been at white supremacy rallies. I'm sure there would be interesting data.
