I think it would be funny if derspiess told people at the rally that he voted for Johnson and got lynched. 

Well, it wouldn't really be funny if he got lynched, but I would be interested in people's reaction to him if he said it.

I thought he voted for McMuffin?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I voted McMuffin. Unless Berkut said I didnt.

That's just a vote for McGriddle by proxy.  Way to go, asshole.

I wanted to vote Sausage, Egg and biscuit, but it had cheese on it and was a cunt.

Incidentally, I'm now rooting for Le Pen in France.  If Western society is going to collapse I want a few other countries to cushion the fall.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Fun night :) 

Height of my evening was getting yelled at by protesters while we were waiting in line to get in.  There were three different clumps of protesters in the overall group.  First time I had ever been to or near a protest where they had a thick line of police separating two opposing groups.  First group was composed of die-hard Hillary supporters chanting "two point five" at us.  I inadvertently started a "lock her up" chant that drowned them out. 

When we got up near the group of Bernie supporters, they were yelling "love trumps hate!" to which I started chanting "block that kick!" and the same people in line with me joined in.  I guess they'll chant anything.  I felt a rush of power.  One of the Bernie Bros was standing yelling something with a raised fist.  I thought that was cool so I raised my fist and yelled "fight the power!"  He seemed confused at first and then smiled.  I think he probably figured out I listened to PE back in the day.

The last group, right as we were about to go through security, was your random protest crazies.  I did not really engage with these people.  They were scary.  One dude was holding a huge "PRO CHOICE" sign with a dead mangled baby on it.  He was yelling "dead babies" over and over.  When I looked at his sign he told me "the real murderer is in that building-- he killed 54 million people".  Oookay.

I've heard people cracking on the lack of diversity in the rally.  Funny thing was that the protesters were even less diverse.

Now the rally itself was not the packed house I was expecting.  Apparently they screwed up the ticketing thing and didn't get it fixed until late morning, which kept people away.  It was still about 2/3 capacity.  Saw a lot more young people there than I expected.  Plenty of old people.  A few rednecks sprinkled in.  Lots of frat boys wearing sport coats and red hats.  There was a group of 4 college age girls in front of us that I thought were mocking Trump supporters at first but they just turned out to be really enthusiastic.  Overall the crowd was fairly mellow compared to what you saw on TV during the campaign.

Only got to see one person escorted out.  Not sure what he did at first but he caused Trump to turn around and point him out.  He defiantly flipped off the crowd and yelled "Fuck Trump" as he was led out by security.  Charming to the last.

Trump did a pretty good job working his crowd.  The girls in front of me were practically wetting themselves.  One weird thing was how often he mentioned "workers".  Almost as if he were addressing some sort of Workers Party.  Anywho, the promise to save the American worker, combined with him saying "America First" and talking about protectionism gave me a flashback to Dick Gephardt's 1988 primary campaign. 

It was a rambling speech that occasionally got back on track like Seedy said.  Three or four times he called out the press and called them liars, pointing them out while doing so, which made me feel uneasy even if it was probably just theatrical.  But I have to admit, I did clap when he announced Mad Dog as Defense Secretary. 

Once Trump got on stage I just treated the whole thing as a comedy act.  I giggled most of the time.  Like I said, fun night.  Cheap one, too.  All I had to pay for was parking.

Nobody in my section seemed to mind.  But they may have assumed I was a convert.

If true, it's unfair. You were clearly one of his earliest supporters.

Yeah, there's going to be a lot of yuks the next 4 years.

Did you at least manage to brain some homeless niggers with a broken beer bottle?  You know, for the kids?

They were outside selling bootleg Trump merchandise.  And no.
