No surprise there.
The reports of crowd estimates should be interesting. I'm already seeing tweets betting Trump will quarrel with the estimates. What I've seen of the crowd so far isn't that impressive.

Funny though, a lot of the street hawkers selling the stuff are Black. It's a living, I guess.

Crowd all white. Trump hawkers on the street were all black; I was a bit taken aback, but like you say, "it's a living."
Still caused me a bit of cognitive dissonance.

(48,993 posts)The performers will be the best of the pathetic lineup, and Trump will be appearing, so this should be drawing a huge crowd of Trump supporters.
