I forg...Thanks for posting my commentary, Nicholas. I forgot to say that Trump's Austin rally was lots of fun. I like chanting "USA! USA! USA!" with other like-minded Americans, for one thing. But I also tried to be realistic about what I heard from Trump and the others.<br /><br />A video of the Trump's visit to Austin, Texas on August 23 (not August 24 as I mistakenly noted) can be found at VDare.com and elsewhere on the Internet. The speeches of the warm-up speakers (some of which I missed) and Trump's full speech are included. Watch it if you want and judge for yourselves.<br /><br />From what I saw, the protestors at Trump's Austin event didn't amount to much, either in numbers or in toughness. There was also a very strong police presence. I admit that I can be pretty critical of Austin and its liberal tendencies. But APD was really on top of things on August 23. I saw no repeat of the confrontations and violence instigated by leftist thugs that have happened at other Trump rallies elsewhere. The high school girls and old lefties who hate Trump couldn't have kicked much ass.<br /><br />This is going to sound really weird, but I'll say it anyway. There is a Section 8 apartment complex located almost directly across the road from the Travis County Expo Center; it's called Eagle's Landing. I happen to know this because I knew some folks who lived there for a short time and who needed a lift to our church. The place is almost completely filled with blacks. So it was interesting to hear Trump talk about black America at length, knowing that many black people lived nearby, but who weren't present to hear about Donald Trump's concerns and promises concerning them.jeigheffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16173914205177114792noreply@blogger.com
