It’s Golden Hour in Butler, PA— President Donald Trump is scheduled to address supporters here at his third of four stops across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania today, with just three days until Election Day. People are packed to the gills (and foregoing masks, which you knew).
Pennsylvania is crucial for President Donald Trump, so expect to hear a lot about fracking and energy here— there’s even some signage, “Oil and Gas Workers for Trump,” on the tarmac today.
Indeed, in what is surely a coincidence, the White House just released a statement declaring "President Donald J. Trump is supporting hydraulic fracturing [fracking] and other technologies to protect our jobs, economic opportunity, and national security."
Trump takes the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania, as is his wont, to Lee Greenwood.
In Butler, PA, Donald Trump talks California Senator Kamala Harris, whose name he correctly pronounces (!), says, "You know you have to pronounce it exactly right, or she gets mad at you."
Told you so-- speaking in Butler, Trump talks new proclamation on fracking, telling supporters, "Moments ago I signed an order to protect Pennsylvania fracking...I signed it on that beautiful Marine One, did you see that? And I said go right over them."
Trump talks Biden in Butler, asking supporters, "You see the new sunglasses? The Aviators? They should be larger, cover up those eyes."
Trump tells supporters, "This election is going to be a choice btw a Biden depression or a Trump boom, there’s going to be a boom" pledging "a safe vaccine that ends the pandemic—it’s ending anyway." (Yesterday the US broke the global record for new cases) cnn.com/2020/10/31/hea…
Trump welcomes Lou Holtz to the stage in PA, says, "So Lou has been an incredible coach and an incredible person. And Lou just lost his incredible wife, how many years? 59 years, that’s one I won’t be able to beat you on that—so Lou is getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom."
Trump has finished and left, but there’s thousands of supporters who have been let loose into the night with no sign of the shuttles they’ve been told will take them back to parking. People are filling the street, blocking the road for ambulances and police.

Trump tells Sinclair's Eric Bolling, "I have no problem with a mask, and frankly some people don’t like it, some people don’t like it scientifically, I mean, you know, you have a lot of different views on the masks." (The overwhelming scientific evidence calls for mask-wearing). Image
Trump says, "When you see my rallies, a lot of those people are actually wearing masks...No, to me it’s not a big issue, I say wear it, it’s ok, I have no problem with it.” (But habitually mocks Biden for social distancing and wearing masks at rallies)
Asked if there's systemic racism in police departments across the country, Trump points to racial diversity in police departments, before saying, "I guess there always is, and it’s a shame, but we have to respect our police and we have to let them do their jobs." Image
