Continuing a nearly hyperactive series of campaign rallies, President Trump headlined a rally in Missoula, Montana, for Matt Rosendale who is closing on Jon Tester, the noted slayer of cattle and hogs, in the Montana Senate race.

The rally was not without controversy. Some inadvertent:

And some clearly calculated:
Tonight the Trump campaign/WH turned up the music so loud the press risers were vibrating. Nearly impossible to do live TV. I suppose the WH loves those kinds of shenanigans. But I wonder if it’s a security concern for USSS or local law enforcement. They can’t hear either.

Here’s how loud the “technicians” at the Trump rally in Montana were playing the music after the event. They turned it up right before our live shot with @CNNTonight https://t.co/f0TZzv5AGv

Acosta clearly wasn’t taking it all that well, when Melania Trump’s former director of operations, Justin Caporale, RTed him with the de rigueur “Dear Diary” preface–it is amazing how many of Acosta’s tweets sound exactly what you’d find in an anxiety-ridden teenage girl with an inferiority complex–
Acosta sent him an DM:

And there was this epic statement by Trump which should pass any fact check:

But Montana is the home of Greg Gianforte who is most famous for “body-slamming” Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs during the 2017 special election:
I don’t know if this was technically a “body slam,” but Gianforte definitely got 2-points for a takedown. Trump went to the Gianforte comparison twice:
“He’d be down faster than Greg would take him down.”

But the comment that has the media going full-metal Elizabeth Warren, complete with warpaint and tomahawk-chop, is this:

Via the New York Times:
President Trump praised a Republican candidate’s assault last year on a reporter and fumed over his Democratic opponents here on Thursday night in a freewheeling rally meant to mobilize his base’s support in the coming midterm elections.
In urging the crowd to vote for Representative Greg Gianforte, who is running for re-election and who was sentenced to anger management classes and community service for assaulting a reporter last spring, Mr. Trump jokingly warned the crowd to “never wrestle him.”
“I had heard he body-slammed a reporter,” Mr. Trump said, noting that he was initially concerned that Mr. Gianforte would lose in a special election last May. “I said, ‘Wait a minute. I know Montana pretty well; I think it might help him.’ And it did.”
“Anybody that can do a body-slam,” the president added, “that’s my kind of guy.”
Predictably, when one of their own is mocked, the media responded:
Omg Trump on Gianforte: “By the way, never wrestle him.”

Guardian US editor John Mulholland: The president “applauded the assault on an American journalist … To celebrate an attack on a journalist who was simply doing his job is an attack on the first amendment by someone who has taken an oath to defend it.” https://t.co/W1wMgUaBf2

I really wish someone would show me where a reporter getting a wrestled to the ground by a private citizen is an affront to the First Amendment.
The disturbing part of Trump’s jokes about Gianforte was the effect on the crowd. I saw one young man in the crowd making body slam gestures. He looked at me and ran his thumb across his throat. I talked to him after the rally was over. He couldn’t stop laughing.

Big cheers in crowd as Trump mentions a reporter getting assaulted. Wow.

Look at these people, standing behind Trump, clapping and laughing, as he talks about how awesome it was when Montana Senator Greg Gianforte bodyslammed a journalist for doing his job.
You know who this reminds me of?

This is shocking and chilling, especially in light of the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi: Trump has praised Congressman Greg Gianforte for his violent assault on a Guardian reporter: https://t.co/k6KcqTW11d

To say this is overwrought is to exaggerate. The number of attacks on journalists at the rally was zero. The number of attacks on journalists after the rally was also zero. Acosta felt so unafraid that he interviewed, or tried to interview, the people who were laughing at him. The statement by the Guardian’s US editor is as bizarre as it is disgusting. He’s essentially saying that no dictatorship, anywhere, killed journalists who angered them before Trump ran for office.
I suppose this is the place where I’m supposed to reflect on how totally wrong this is and how we are all so much better that this and bewail what Trump has done to the GOP. F*** that noise. (Full disclosure, I had and have zero sympathy for Jacobs and this has nothing to do with Trump, if any candidate, of either party, wants my list of reporters who could benefit from an ass whipping, please contact me). For the past two years the media has demonstrated what any observer of politics has known since the late 1980s, that they are simply an adjunct to the Democrat party serving as its propaganda arm. Laughing at them, mocking them, ridiculing them is completely legitimate. And if the don’t like it, well, screw them if they can’t take a joke.

The reporter should.d have left when asked…
The whore press loves the truth about as much as the devil himself loves how much time he’s got left on this planet….
3Then the wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. 4But you, Daniel, shut up these words and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will roam to and fro, and knowledge will increase.”

you kids and your fairy-tales
- the universe was not created, but has always existed in accordance with universal natural law
- there is no creator
- all 1 million+ gods are inventions of ignorant men
- no gods exist
- no god exists
- all holy books are man-made works of fiction
- no ‘holy men’ lived
time to grow out of your fantasy fairy-tales, let go your imaginary friends and mature into an adult, who does that which is right, for no reason other than it is right
TRUMP has to be the sales man on the planet. He and his support have enough of the third world invasion that all media including the alt media that call them paid migrants as apposed to what they are, Invaders. ALL Trump has to do is call on true Americans to put a stop to it.
Let true Americans clean up the mess. No license, no tags and no limit, no free money for them, no corporate crime for defending America from invaders. The constitution says yes. As sovereigns we are entitled to defend this country.
If Trump gave the green light the problem would end in a day or two. No one wants to be put in jail by the elite for defending the sovereignty of our home land.
The name calling started a long time ago under Obama and Hilary when Obama made fun of Bible holding and gun toting people and Hilary called Trump supporters deplorables. Don’t forget how Obama shot down the police leading to many deaths still today- when he stuck up for criminals who were criminals.
