And thoughtless, self entitled, and basically stupid. Count on chaos to ensue.

And much of this stuff is coordinated by non-political positions. He has thoroughly disrupted this. I pray to God he doesn't get killed down there. That would destroy the country.

A campaign event for a president who lost and is currently not running for anything.

Why are we paying taxes to support another fantasy?

Air Force One should be grounded until further notice.

and take the afternoon off. Get people off the streets.

He just wants a photo, because he’s a deep thinker. Wants to poke people to die for him.
Just dress better, I guess.

which is in another city.

The City of Alamo should take advantage of the small crowd and arrest him for inciting a deadly riot. One Alamo sheriff could save a nation.

Alamo, itself, appears to be mostly RV parks.

To stick the taxpayers with and poor Alamo taxpayers are gonna get stuck with more expenses b/c he doesn’t pay his bills. It’s Texas so maybe they’re ok with this.

Alamo is kind of a suburb of McAllen. They have no airport in Alamo that could accommodate AF1. McAllen and Harlingen probably can though. So why say Alamo TX? They will have to land elsewhere and use ground transport or helicopter to get from the airport to Alamo. That requires a lot of pre-work by SS and coordination with local LEOs. So what airport are his adoring fans going to flock to??
Something is a miss here, I guess we will find out in a few hours. It will be hilarious of he lands near San Antonio at the AFB to go to the actual Alamo.
