Trump wows the crowd at Toledo rally and takes no prisoners
By Andrea Widburg < >
People in Toledo started lining up by the thousands to see President Trump's latest rally. Their wait paid off, for whether they were inside the Huntington Center or outside watching on a big screen, Trump was in top form, speaking about his myriad accomplishments; savaging his opponents, whether in the media or in Congress; and using the usual half-boastful, half-deprecating jokes that the Left doesn't understand but that conservatives adore.
Despite chilly temperatures, hours before the rally began, thousands of people began to line up for the chance to get a seat the venue:
Some might have been a bit worried that President Trump would lack his usual energy. On Wednesday morning, when he gave his speech to the nation about the strike against Soleimani and his promise never to let Iran get nuclear weapons, Trump appeared exhausted. Indeed, his fatigue was so great that Leftists promptly asserted that the president, who is a lifelong teetotaler, so great is his aversion to any type of substance, was sniffing Adderall.
The crowd need not have worried. The president was in fine form, with tremendous energy, and interspersing his speech with beaming smiles. As is typical for Trump, his speech had a jackrabbit quality, as he briefly touched bases with the TelePrompter and then instantly went off on free-form riffs.
While this practice can be irritating to the unenlightened, it's one of the things that keeps Trump's speeches from ever being boring. Not only does he have a comic's timing, but his speeches never fall into a predictable rhythm that leads people to tune him out. With President Trump, you've got to stay alert to keep up. And those who watched the Toledo speech and stayed alert got a rare treat.
Early in the speech, Trump made it plain that congressional Democrats were irrational with their efforts to limit his constitutional war powers (a vote the House passed today) by making him seek permission for every military strike. He riffed on an imaginary conversation Adam Schiff:
Can you imagine calling Crooked Adam Schiff? He's so crooked. So crooked. Shifty Schiff. Say, "Gee, Adam, how you're doing? Listen — we have the world's number one terrorist who's killed thousands and thousands of people. We'd like to set up a meeting so we can discuss his execution. Would you be willing to meet?"
"Well, I won't be able to make it this week."
"Well, you know, he's traveling fast. We've got it lined up, Adam. You little pencil neck." [Huge cheers.]
Nine inches. He buys the smallest shirt collar you can get, and it's loose.
"Now, come on, Adam. We've got to meet faster, Adam. We've got him lined up. We've got to take this guy out. We're not going to have another shot at him, maybe ever again."
"But I can't make it now because I'm trying to impeach Trump. Even thought he did nothing wrong."
Now Schiff is a big leaker. You know, he leaks to crazy CNN, see with the little red light on them [pointing to cameras]. Not too many people are watching CNN.
But he leaks. So he'll say, "You know, ah, off the record, I got to hurry up because everyone's watching me in the hallway on my cell phone. Off the record, they've got the number one terrorist in the world, Soleimani, and they're going to get him, they're going to take him out, in the next ten minutes. Please don't tell anybody I told you."
"We have breaking news: President Trump, within the next twenty, twenty-five minutes looks to be taking out terrorist General Soleimani. He's going to do it. Should be happening in about the next twenty minutes, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen.
Then we get back to the battlefield. "How did you do?"
"I don't know, Sir. He disappeared. I don't know what happened to him."
They want us to tell them so they can leak it to their friends in the corrupt media.
President Trump didn't limit his insults to Congress. He said he looks forward to debating Biden, because he'd ask at least eight or nine times during the debate, "Where's Hunter?" Indeed, said the president, that's his new first name for Biden's son: "Where's." He then explained briefly just how corrupt Where's Hunter's career had been.
Trump also joked that he was going to be nice about his opponent's policies, especially the Green New Deal, until the very last minute. He doesn't want them to have a chance to prepare for the challenges he intends to raise to these policies.
In addition to having fun with his opponents, Trump returned repeatedly to the fact that he had made good on his promises. His most Trumpian line, indeed, and one that was clearly intended to break CNN and MSNBC, came when he said "I've actually completed more promises than I've made."
Trump then proceeded to recite all the promises he kept: He brought work back to America, revitalized jobs in Ohio, forced accountability on the VA, strengthened the military, created energy independence for America, enhanced border security, and encouraged ICE to remove thousands of dangerous illegal aliens, especially from MS-13. The crowd was with him all the away.
One of the things that was striking about Trump's speech was that he never broke America down into groups. Aside from boasting about the historic employment figures for Blacks and Hispanics, Trump spoke about Americans and America.
This stands in stark contrast to any speech any of the Democrat candidates give. Those speeches are micro-targeted to specific identity groups: blacks, gays, transgenders, women, Hispanics, tennis players, coffee servers, illegal aliens, and electric car drivers. Just last month, Elizabeth Warren announced in all seriousness that when she is president she will set aside one day a year to read out loud in the Rose Garden the name of all transgender people who had been murdered that year. Nobody should be murdered, but pandering to microdemographics is not the job of the President of the United States of America.
Each Democrat candidate wants to be the president for special interest groups and the foreign nations whose admiration they crave. However, Trump showed tonight, just as he always does, that he is America's president.
