(2) Covering Trump rallies live always creates a dilemma for me: High quality photos after the event, or lower quality photos during it?
As an #entrepreneur (which makes #America great) I found a solution: A running thread for ALL rallies.
Washington, MI:
(3) Tonight's rally is in Elkhart, IN, right after the primary which saw #BraunForIndiana win the nomination for the Senate race in November.
Signs of #HighEnergy momentum with a big overflow crowd before the rally - venue only holds 7,300.
It's going to be like this all year
(4) I saw a report of one guy who arrived at 4pm yesterday to ensure he got inside the rally. We need bigger venues, folks!

(5) Last week's rally was super loud throughout. This one is so loud you can hear random cheering OVER the music and there isn't anyone standing on the stage yet. LOL
Things like this are objective evidence that are missed (deliberately) by polls and approval ratings.
(6) POTUS doesn't say stuff to get his ego boosted. He doesn't need that. He says stuff bc it gets more media coverage, generates enthusiasm & momentum, & helps win the midterms & 2020 so he can keep achieving his goals for the country. Then he'll have a legacy. Unlike Obama.

(2) Brett M. Kavanaugh will soon be the 102nd Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the USA. He has earned this highest honor throughout his life, inspired by his trailblazing mother, Judge Martha Kavanaugh.
His title for these few hours is Associate Justice Designate.
(3) This statement from the Supreme Court explains the two ceremonies:
(2) This WaPo reporter is incorrect about the vote being "scheduled for" Saturday. The earliest time a vote COULD be held is Saturday pm. There's no reason not to hold it on Sun/Mon IF we need Daines. I think we won't. Read my 5 tweets about him here:
(1) A directory of my Kavanaugh threads since July 9, 2018.
I never planned more than a couple of threads about him this year but, I shoulda known the Dems would try to destroy whoever was the nominee this time.
(2) Like Democrats, I'd already decided how I felt about him before his nomination was announced. I live-tweeted the announcement, which was a great event in itself.
(3) I followed Kavanaugh's progress over the summer and on September 22nd, I finally wrote a thread about the preparations for the all-important hearing on September 27th. It covers the hearing before the next thread started the day after.
(2) Mitch laughing to himself about how absurd it is that he has to push his way through the crowd of reporters on 9/25/18.
(3) Sen Grassley is 85 years old. (Democrats have senators around that age, too.)
Today he had to hold onto a Capitol Police officer to reduce the risk of a reporter knocking him over. This has to stop. Senators must return to being able to walk around freely at work.
(2) First Lady Melania Trump is a natural in this important role.
She's one of those women whose face lights up whenever she is around children. God Bless our great First Lady.

(3) FLOTUS left Joint Base Andrews in her trademark high heels and arrived in Ghana wearing practical flats. She still looks sensational, whatever she happens to wear!
(2) Cloture in the Senate is a procedural step that you can learn more about at the link below. The senate.gov website is the best resource for learning about Senate procedure and a lot more. Same for house.gov.
(3) Watching live Senate floor proceedings is boring as hell, as they pass bills for naming Post Offices, & so on. But every now & then, they confirm a SCOTUS judge. And this time, they will affirm our great #BillOfRights#DueProcess & the hard-won #RuleOfLaw. Seriously. 🇺🇸🦅
