Trump plans an election eve MAGA rally at airport in Miami-Dade County

If you’ve ever wanted to dance to YMCA on an airport runway after midnight, President Donald Trump has you covered.

Trump’s campaign on Friday announced that the president will attend an 11:30 PM rally on Sunday, Nov. 1, at Opa-locka Executive Airport, part of a frenetic, 48-hour, cross-country tour. The Opa-locka stop will be the end of a five-rally day for the president after events in Michigan, Iowa, North Carolina and Georgia.

The rally is expected to be Trump’s final South Florida appearance before Election Day. On Monday, he’s scheduled to appear in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan.
Trump’s appearance will likely violate a 12 AM curfew in Miami-Dade County put in place by Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez, who is also running for Congress as a Republican with Trump’s endorsement.

Trump has blanketed Florida with rallies and public appearances in the campaign’s final weeks, including a stop in Tampa on Thursday. But Trump himself hasn’t held a rally in Miami-Dade County in the campaign’s final months until Sunday, though Vice President Mike Pence held a rally on Oct. 15 aimed at South Florida’s Latino community ahead of a Trump town hall event in downtown Miami.

hope that the amount of drugs he will have to take to get him through these last rallies blows all his circuits.

3. He sounds less lucid and meaner with every rally.

At this pace he'll be enraged and incoherent by the time he gets to Florida. Good times for the rally goers who cheer at seeing the once respected office of the leader of the free world denigrated in this way.

    he's probably going to make a bonfire of all the mail being held in the Miami-Dade Post Office.
