Even generous editorial application of AP Brand Normalizing Ballwash and Story Conditioner couldn’t smooth away all the “OMG! WTF! He’s crazy!” In the reporter’s story.

He sounds as if he’s flailing around trying to decide how to sell this as a win.

“Finish the Wall.”

Well, it was probably packed with half capacity. Are there pix of the unused seats in the back rows like there usually are?

(Also: 6500? pretty small venue for such a big ego, if you ask me…)

Would have appreciated a crowd estimate for each venue. To my eye, Beto outdrew him but…well you know.

So why is Trump pretending to be a Black Panther? Isn’t this the Blank Panther Power sign?

You decide

He just cannot get out of his own way, bless his heart. Holding up that tiny little fist while overcompensating for something with that clownish red tie.

Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Trumpy, you’re the best.
In your own mind.

Were these AP reporters injected with a truth serum before they covered this event? This is actually a creditable article. Hope these 2 can keep their jobs.

thank you for this interesting link - but it still doesn’t have any reliable stats on the size of beto’s rally - anyone have a reliable source for that?

nonsense - he was going to go with a big sombrero and then an aide pointed out it might hide his handsome face from the cameras
