Trump immediately bores his fans in Latrobe to death with an endlessly rambling story about Arnold Palmer

Trump has been speaking for more than 5 minutes in Pennsylvania and the whole thing has been a rambling, boring story about Arnold Palmer that nobody cares about. Is Trump okay? This is weird even by his standards.

lmao Fox News cuts away from Trump as he goes on and on and on about Arnold Palmer. Even the Fox anchor seems weirded out

holy shit Trump is still talking about Arnold Palmer. Dafuq

OMFG -- "When he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there, they said 'oh my god. That's unbelievable" --Trump says that when other golfers showered with Arnold Palmer they would marvel at how big his dick is

Trump said he talked to Nentanyahu today and Bibi told him he's not listening to Biden

a good luck at the crowd size for Trump's rally in Latrobe

Trump on the Secret Service: "They are serious guns. We got more guys, and every one of them is like central casting too. Holy shart. I'm looking. They look like Arnold Palmer! They look like Arnold! You can't look better than Arnold."

Trump: "Butler, Pennsylvania, we had 101,00 people. It was unbelievable." (The Secret Service says the attendance was 21,000)

If you like 20 minute stories about Arnold Palmer and his huge hog, then this is the Trump rally for you

Trump on Elizabeth Warren: "She did a test and she was so happy because it came back 1,000/fourteent. Remember? 1,000/14th. And that was it."

Trump: You have to tell Kamala Harris that we can't stand you. You're a shit vice president. Get the hell out of here Kamala.

Trump: "Do you know what an unrealized capital gain is? I'll tell you what it is: communism."

Trump on tariffs: "In the 1890s and the 1880s, our country was actually the richest it ever was." (This is a lie.)

He then digresses into McKinley's assassination. His brain just flits around.

Trump is out here just transparently making stuff up. His gullible fans eat it up.

Trump: "The United States is now an occupied country. But November 5 will be liberation day in America."

Trump glitches while saying "illegal"

Trump contrasts the current leadership of the US with 1798, "when we had real people running our country."

"I'm going to get that thing overturned so fast" -- Trump is now threatening to use his power to overturn California state laws

I suspect the approval ratings for Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell in Pittsburgh these days are pretty low

https://x.com/Acyn/status/1847782856850100523

Trump tends to lose his audience a bit toward the end of his rallies when he goes back to reading the teleprompter, but he always gets them back with his regular crudely transphobic talking points

Trump says "we will not be occupied" and "we will not be conquered" as though those are things that are happening right now, but then in the next breath says if he wins "every day will be filled with opportunity and hope"

Trump caps things off with some bigly double jerking

That's it for Trump's rally in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. If you appreciate me watching it so you didn't have to, please show love by signing up for my newsletter. We're doing great work at PN and paid subscribers make my work possible. Thanks! publicnotice.co/subscribe

I'll be tweeting clips from @PatrioticMills's "How to Beat the Broligarchs" event this morning in this thread as part of my partnership with @SnapStream. Follow along!

Elizabeth Wilkins: "People are looking for different ideas. The bad version is that an undermining of people's faith in democracy leads to authoritarianism. The good version is that we get together to think about what we need in terms of power the ideas and the people to create a new common sense -- one that brings us back for the modern era to that marriage of democracy and capitalism, where democracy shapes markets for the public good."

@PatrioticMills @SnapStream Patriotic Millionaires founder Erica Payne: "Here's what happened. Doesn't matter who's in charge. Tax rates for the rich always go down."

Maria Bartiromo on a weaker than expected February jobs report: "The jobs picture is weakening. Weaker than expected jobs again in the month of February tells you that the Fed is gonna cut rates!"

BARTIROMO: We've got a meeting coming up. Does anyone on this panel think the Fed is gonna cut rates at the next meeting?

STEPHEN MOORE: Well, I don't think they should. I just don't see a case for lower interest rates right now. We still have inflation at the 3-4% range.

BARTIROMO: True

Bartiromo: "It would be Biden's recession."

Wyden: "Mr Kennedy has embraced conspiracy theories, quacks, charlatans, especially when it comes to the safety and efficacy of vaccines. He has made it his life's work to sow doubt and to discourage parents from getting their kids lifesaving vaccines. It has been lucrative for him."

Sen. Roger Wicker: "This nomination is unconventional, just like that New York developer who rode down the escalator in 2015 to announce his candidacy for president. That may be what makes Mr. Hegseth an excellent choice."
