The White House is going to make certain there's no repeat of Tulsa. Tulsa embarrassed His Assholiness, and if there's one thing he doesn't like, it's being embarrassed.

even if there were only a handful of people there to see him.

This only demonstrates that Trump does not respect his own supporters.
He's not there for them.

Let that sink in, magats.

Can't his jack boot followers get a bit wet while they get inside?? Plus that storm could be moved past enough by Sat afternoon or evening.

I call BULLSHIT, they know the turn out would be another embarrassment.........

Those who are on his advance team know it will be a TV JOKE just like Tulsa. The weather is NO factor, but a dinky turnout for what is to take place inside is.

But it is certainly the lesser of two evils for Dump to postpone. Most in NH hate him (39 percent approval, 58 percent disapproval), and interest in the covid parties that Dump calls "rallies" is dropping by the day. Add thunderstorms and 3/4" of rain, and my guess is a couple hundred people would show up.

SaturdayShowers and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly before 3pm, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 3pm. High near 81. Southeast wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.

There’s no chance a tropical storm is the reason he isn’t holding this.

100 percent chance it’s because turnout was going to be awful.

and doesn't want his poor people to get all chill 'n wet. Yet a massive killer pandemic doesn't stop him for a second.

The logic of this president is demented. But ya'll knew that already, how sick he is.

by tomorrow afternoon the rain will gone, merely cloudy for the rest of the day.

What's left of the storm is centered on the Connecticut River valley, well to the west of the coast.

The projected turn out must have stunk on ice.

Lock him up.

I just checked out several Portsmouth live webcams. No rain. Accuweather says no rain until 9:00pm and thats been the prediction all day

I’m guessing fess of another Tulsa caused the rescheduling/cancelation
