Donald Trump: We are making a big move for Connecticut
Comments Share Tweet Stumble Email
FAIRFIELD, Connecticut - Near the end of Donald Trump's speech on the campus of Sacred Heart University in Connecticut, loud claps of thunder boomed throughout the gymnasium. Many in the crowd - 5,000 strong - blanched. Trump, already speaking for more than hour, continued undeterred. He didn't seem to notice. It was an apt metaphor for the Trump candidacy.
He was in rare form on Saturday night - even for Trump. He mused out loud about withdrawing the credentials of the New York Times, calling it "real garbage."
"The newspaper is going to hell," Trump said. "They've got a couple of reporters in that newspaper who are so bad. I mean, lack of talent. But it's going to hell. So I think maybe what we will do, maybe we will start thinking about taking their press credentials away from them."
If Trump follows through, he would add the paper to a blacklist of media outlets barred from attending his events that currently includes the Washington Post, Politico and National Review, among others. The GOP nominee was unhappy about a piece published Saturday that cited campaign sources characterizing Trump as "frustrated" and "exhausted" by his falling poll numbers.
Thousands of supporters packed a gym, with no air conditioning to hear the business mogul speak. Trump went on stage more than a half hour late and attendees that had to be treated for heat-related symptoms reached double digits. At one point, Trump brought on stage an 18-year-old patient of the Make-A-Wish foundation, Giacomo Brancato, who said, as his wish, that he would like to meet Trump.
Brancato took the microphone as the crowd cheered and said, "Just everyone vote for Trump. Make America great again."
Soon after, Trump made a promise to Brancato.
"I'm telling this to Giacomo," Trump said. "I might lie to you," referring to the audience, "like Hillary does all the time, but I'll never lie to Giacomo, okay? All right Giacomo? You hold me to it."
Then Trump made his grand promise.
"We're gonna build a wall. But who, who, who, who is gonna pay for the wall?"
The crowd screeched, "Mexico!"

Trumps should hold these rallies under a circus tent. Better ventilation.

A gathering of dimwitted fools.

Connecticut has not voted for a Republican in a presidential election since 1988.
With history as his guide, Trump does have a shot after-all.

Connecticut has a whopping 7 electoral votes. Looks like Donny is right on target; to lose that is. What a dim bulb! :silly:

Even Trump doesn't know anymore. 888high58888

Dukakis moved (a little) to the right in his fight against Bush 1 in 88, that's why he lost Connecticut, Trump being to the Left of Dukakis, may have a chance here.
