The adult daughter of a PW poster was in line for the Phonenix rally the other night and said it was huge.

The one held in the 20K arena with the top tiers of seats behind a curtain?

Oh, I think they had 15K there. Good crowd. Right now, she's a Rorschach Test. Since she has no policies, people can make up whatever they want. I think the Dems will keep things going until the convention and try to ride the early voting. They damn sure can't ride the economy.

Now, did they have a free concert like they did in Atlanta? And was anybody paid to attend, especially "influencers"?

Was there a pre-rally concert?

That's my question...They headlined with Megan Thee Stallion in Georgia.

Guys, that wasn’t a photo at all. Damn near looked CGI. Blow up the picture. I’m not saying there wasn’t a massive showing at the airport, but that picture wasn’t it.

Here's another photo. Notice the lack of tail numbers.

Again, looks like an Alex Ross spread.

Who are these big guys in red?

Look at the phones, if nothing else. Some look like they are on Twitter, and none are showing anything like what the cameras would be pointed at.

Somehow we're still in the infancy of fake information on the internet... only going to get worse with improving AI. I have no idea even if the picture in that original tweet was copied directly from the Kamala Kamp or not.

As @Mik said, skeptical about everything now. Makes me want to (and continue to) tune in less and less. Life is short, spend time with family, hobbies, community...

Until your children have to live in the world you helped create.

Yeah - politics is turning into reality-TV level fluff. There was at least a facade of higher ideals when I was younger. Kids growing up these days must think it's always been a clown show.

It's always been a clown show. You just want to try to make sure the best clown for the country wins.

A HS friend of mine is a photographer filmmaker that failed miserably in LA and landed in an advertising agency in Arizona… He posted this on Facebook:

Bozo or Pennywise. What a great choice.
