Clearly it takes more than a drink to slow down our great team.

We are always thankful to the brave law enforcement officials who keep everyone safe at our events. https://t.co/njWuBquiRs

.@tampabaytimes reporter shares blog glorifying assault @ town hall event attended by 250+ citizens.

Yet another example of the MSM truly becoming an #EnemyOfThePeople.

Will the great “paper of record” or other reporters call this out? I’m not holding my breath. Or my tongue. https://t.co/PIijOLqPiB
