According to PBS, Trump isn't speaking until 10pm EDT, so 2 more hours from when I'm writing this. I do imagine he'll get lots of fans, after all, it's Montana and it's sunny and 77° so weather won't stop folks from going out. Besides being a morale booster for Trump, this may help the down ballot candidates.

Here are some more outdoor shots from Bozeman. This looks like a lot more than the previous two, but nowhere near what he was getting in the past. He did get bad local press regarding the fact that he never pays the bills for any of these rallies.

It's supposed to be for the guy running against Tester. His ads are in my twitter feed constantly. He's "Trump-endorsed."

Well, the people who come to listen to Trump get what they deserve.
You couldn't pay me enough to attend one of his rallies.

OK, apparently he took a different plane from Billings to Bozeman, so he must have had mechanical problems after all.

30+ years ago, President Bush came here for something or other and made a speech at the state capitol. I was absolutely NOT a Bush fan, but I took my kids out of school that day to go hear him speak. Not because I expected to hear him say anything important, but that was back in the good ole' days when it was a "respect for the office" thing and I thought my kids needed to see and hear the President of the United States. They got little American flags and everything. I would never, under any circumstances, do that today. Not even under duress.

The MSU arena where Trump is speaking tonight has a capacity of 8455 according to the Google machine. That is less than half the capacity of the Desert Diamond where Harris appeared tonight (20,000)
It's not that I have ever been particularly impressed with crowd size, Biden never did any big rallies and Clinton didn't do anywhere near the kind of rallies Trump did. And Biden won both the electoral college and the popular vote, while Clinton beat Trump in the popular vote by a huge amount.
But still...Harris is pulling in huge crowds. And the more people see these huge crowds it starts to be a self fulfilling prophecy kind of thing. People like to be a part of the majority, that's a fact, just human nature. This is some serious positive energy going on with Harris.

I find it super funny RSBN underbussed Dump by paning the 'crowd' on video.
I don't mind him bragging about crowd size. He's a juvenile comparing penis size.

Y'all know I hate opening this topic. I hate thinking about him, hearing what he's doing to harm America, all of it. All he wants is attention and I still believe ignoring him hurts him the most. But this doesn't have him in it, it's kids mocking him. Looked a few pages back and didn't see this posted, if it has mea culpa, I've been in Tina Petersland. These kids are terrific.

Here's a link about what Trump said in his recent press interview about the almost crash of the helicopter with Willie Brown aboard and his assertion that Brown badmouthed Kamala Harris - Trump: Willie Brown said ‘terrible things’ about Kamala Harris
And here's a link to tonight's story on Politico where it was Nate Holden who said it was he, not Willie Brown, who was in that helicopter with Trump -
The man who almost crashed in a helicopter with Donald Trump told POLITICO Trump confused him with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown — despite the former president’s repeated insistence it was Brown.
It was Nate Holden, a former city councilman and state senator from Los Angeles, who said in an exclusive interview late Friday that he remembers the near-death experience well. He and others believe it happened sometime in 1990.
“Willie is the short Black guy living in San Francisco,” Holden said. “I’m a tall Black guy living in Los Angeles.
“I guess we all look alike,” Holden told POLITICO, letting out a loud laugh.
Holden, who is 95 years old, was in touch with Trump and his team during the 1990s when the flamboyant Manhattan developer was trying to build on the site of the historic Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles. Holden represented the district at the time and supported the project.
Read the rest at the link.

From deadbird site - He didn't pay his fuel bill in Bozeman the last time he blew through. So, he landed in Billings and took a private flight to Bozeman under the cover of a "story".

Because he likely hasn’t paid his fuel bills.
My dad was in the aviation fuel biz for decades. If Trump owes money to the fueler (ex: AvFuel, Edwards) they won’t refuel his plane there.
Billings uses Edwards.
Bozeman uses World Fuel Services.
Btw: my Dad started Worldfuel

His rally did seem to be fairly full by the time he showed up, but it's still less than half of what Harris had. She filled that 20,000. There may have been one section of the upper side closed off, but that is probably only 10% of the total capacity. I was stunned at the turnout, especially since this was Arizona, which was leaning quite a bit towards Trump 3 weeks ago.

Trump and his close calls. I hope nothing happens to him before the elections. I am really concerned, Donnie.
