What, another rally? But of course. How else can Trump make himself feel better after the intense public criticism from his Charlottesville comments than by having another rally? So Trump will be holding one in Arizona next week, another state he took in 2016. The Phoenix mayor hopes he will change his mind and at least delay it due while the nation recovers from the terrible events in Virginia.

Trump needs his ego being stroked.

Their mayor is a democrat. This might be a story if he were a republican, but even then probably not.

Will the real grandstander please stand up ?

Now move to the exit and shut your mouth.
You were not invited to speak. The rally is for people who want to listen to invited speakers.

You can have your own rally somewhere else.

He probably doesn't want his citizens to be run over by cars.

The real question is, once again-how many violent leftists will show up? How many people will be beaten and assaulted by Antifa and BLM, among other violent left-wing groups, this time? How many will they club? Pepper spray? Attempt to set on fire with improvised flame throwers? Throw human excrement and urine filled balloons at? And how many guns will they bring to THIS rally? They have been attacking peaceful political rallies for well over a year now-it is way past time for this to end. And for bigots and fools like the mayor to recognize that encouraging violence by one group is not just wrong and hate filled, but harmful to a great many innocent people-let alone his cause.

It's a shame he isn't bright enough to realize that the bill of rights applies to all people-not just ones on his side of the political spectrum.

Maybe he could stop issuing Drivers Licenses to illegals.

Id like to think we both know that's a state and not a City issue.

There's a simultaneous counter protest taking place DT near the Trump rally. Who knows what will happen but I won't be down there.

Seems like most times when polls/ reactions to Trump are unfavorable, Trump needs a rally so he can feel the love.

No reason to become a potential lightening rod for civil unrest to stroke Trump's ego.

Resources have to come from somewhere.
