Trump Will Do a Town Hall ‘on Multiple Networks’ on Thursday

Trump 2020 Campaign Senior Adviser Jason Miller announced that President Donald Trump will do a town hall that will be on “multiple networks” on Thursday.

“[N]ext Thursday, we’ve already seen that Sleepy Joe is going to accept an invitation to join a different network, in the place of the town hall. He’s happy to do it with the ‘undecided voters’ that are essentially all Biden supporters. We’re actually going to be on multiple networks at the same time. It hasn’t been announced yet. But I can give you that tease.”

Miller further stated that Trump will be answering questions in a town hall format.

I thought Frank Luntz seemed like a decent guy until this reply yesterday to President Trump.

He is 100% honest and ethical. He is 100% unbiased. He is the right person to host this debate at this time, because he will hold both candidates accountable.

I haven't listened to that hack Luntz since the election in 2016. Sometime during the afternoon on election day he tweeted something to the effect that the republicans lost the house and the senate and Hillary was going to win easily. Polls wern't closing for HOURS. He is a loser.

Kristen Welker is the moderator for the October 22 presidential debate.

Welker has deactivated her Twitter account

just hours earlier, C-SPAN’s Steve Scully deactivated his Twitter account as he deals with the mess he’s gotten himself into over the appearance that he is a Never-Trumper working with the likes of Anthony Scaramucci.

what is she hiding? She is NBC’s White House correspondent and a weekend anchor. Fox News was told that it was Welker’s own decision to deactivate her account, that she was not asked to do so by the CPD. She, like most journalists, is likely a Biden voter

Most reporters swear by the fact that they have no bias. It’s the bubble they live in. They don’t see their own biases.

Bob Dole claims no Republicans on debate commission support Trump

“The Commission on Presidential Debates is supposedly bipartisan w/ an equal number of Rs and Ds. I know all of the Republicans and most are friends of mine,” Dole tweeted, saying he was concerned that none of them supported Trump. “A biased Debate Commission is unfair.”

Dole’s tweet comes as the president and his allies have repeatedly accused the commission, which describes itself as nonpartisan, of trying to assist Democratic presidential nominee Joe BidenJoe BidenFederal judge shoots down Texas proclamation allowing one ballot drop-off location per county Sanders endorses more than 150 down-ballot Democrats Debate commission cancels Oct. 15 Trump-Biden debate MORE. The claims arise as the commission has sought to make several changes to the upcoming presidential debates.

Most recently, Trump said Thursday that the commission's decision to make the Oct. 15 presidential debate a virtual event was a way to protect Biden. The decision was made amidst Trump’s coronavirus diagnosis.

They accused the commission of considering Biden in these adjustments.

At the time, Stepien claimed that the commission cannot describe itself as nonpartisan because certain members of its leadership have contributed to Democrats or expressed criticism of Trump.

Senior Trump campaign aide Jason Miller had said making changes was “purely a move by the Biden camp and their allies in the CPD.”

Not surprising at all.

President Trump has picked up another nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize, after a Finnish member of the European Parliament (MEP) called for the American president to receive the honor.

Laura Huhtasaari, an MEP and a member of the right-wing Finns Party, wrote to the Nobel Committee to nominate Trump for the 2021 prize “in recognition of his endeavors to end the era of endless wars, construct peace by encouraging conflicting parties for dialogue and negotiations, as well as underpin internal cohesion and stability of his country.”

Huhtasaari said Trump has nearly completed a presidential term without involving the U.S. in a new foreign conflict, while withdrawing troops from Iraq and Afghanistan. She also cited the Abraham Accords -- peace deals between two Arab Gulf nations and Israel.

Additionally, she said Trump has “maintained national cohesion and secured law and order” at home.

“It is hard to imagine a president of the United States from the last decades, or a current head of state, who would deserve more the Committee’s recognition in 2021 than President Trump for his efforts to build peace in the world,” Huhtasaari writes.

The letter marks the latest in a growing push in Europe and elsewhere for Trump to be awarded the prize.

Israeli's can hold two passports, as can several other Most Favored Nation countries.

Nothing wrong with two passports as long as your allegiance is to the country where you live

True enough. But how many of those with multiple passports use them to engage in activities detrimental to the country whose passport is used for other than honorable purposes? I recall an incident at an airline ticket counter.

The woman ahead of us was trying to check in. When she was asked for her passport, she pulled out a rather large wallet and opened it. Inside were several passports. She had to look at her ticket to see what name was on it.

I think... after months of conversing with my mom (she is a democrat only because that is how she was brought up and has bought into the lies), she just texted me, "You got me. Don't tell my Democratic friends."

I had even convinced her not to vote for a presidential candidate in the primary.

So, we are +1 more on the side of right (as far as voting goes in this election).

I have two co-workers that are voting for the first time, both are voting straight Republican. My SIL is voting for the first time, voting all Republican.

All of them see what is going on and are fed up and terrified should the Dems get into power.

The polls and news stories can be discouraging, but that is their intention. Even Piers Morgan, who supposedly likes President Trump, had a story this week about him burning out. The holier than thou idiots never shut up on my social media. It all just seems rigged and agaisnt us.

Then we have ACB filling her seat when we know this will go before them. We have unions telling their leaders they are still voting for President Trump. We have positives to hang onto.

That's because it is. IF Trump loses, and I believe it is a big "if", it will be in no small part to the enormous onslaught of negative propaganda the last four years. It's been amazing. The sad fact is propaganda works and 95% of the electorate does not dig into issues as much as we do here. "Reporters" can tell outright lies, lies that get repeated a half million times on twitter. Candidates can blatantly lie and 99% of "reporters" will treat it as fact. Blows my mind.

One thing I do know though, if the republican establishment thinks that all they need to do is get rid of Trump to stop the populist wave he started they need to think again. Trump has anywhere from 80-90% favorability among republicans. It's his party now, as much as the RINO's hate it. There is no going back to the Bush party. Go ahead and try to make Larry Hogan the face of the party. I'll stay home. Dark times are coming and I'm not getting any younger.

This "he's burning out" and the related "he only sought the job as a publicity stunt, was surprised when he got it, and now wants out of it" horse shit has been a running theme of theirs almost from the beginning.

We agree. It may be discouraging at times, but we'll be alright.

Large and Diverse Pro-Trump Rally Descends on Beverly Hills

Video at link:

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...ds-on-beverly-hills/

An October 10, 2020, a pro-Trump rally in Beverly Hills, California, was not only large and energetic, but was comprised of people from all walks of life, various races, and even genders.

There were at least two previous pro-Trump rallies in Beverly Hills, the most recent on October 3, 2020. Breitbart News reported that that rally was crashed by BLM and Anitifa, with demonstrators holding signs that read, “NAZI TRUMPS FUCK OFF!” and “DEPORT NAZI SCUM.”

Whitney R., who attended last Saturday’s rally and the one before it, told Breitbart News that today’s was “the largest” rally with the “most diverse turnout.”

Whitney added, “The energy was running high and American pride was everywhere.”

Numerous photos taken at the rally show the crowd and the pro-Trump, pro-America passion:
