“We’re going to have the strongest economic country in the history of the world, of the planet. We are taking in so much money,” Trump said.

“Now, some people are unhappy, because it has to come from somewhere. Some of it’s going to come from Europe, because not everybody’s going to be doing as much business maybe in Europe and other places. But I can only speak for the United States. And I am a nationalist, and I’m proud of it. I love this country. And I want to help other countries too.

“Look, I’m the one. If it wasn’t for me, they wouldn’t be talking peace in Ukraine and Russia, because there are not Americans being killed. They’re Ukrainian soldiers and Russian soldiers, and I’m trying to make peace. And, again, it has not that much to do, other than, we don’t want to be paying,” Trump said, before continuing to blame former President Joe Biden for the cost of the conflict.

Every youtube comment section about these town halls is filled with newly created accounts claiming the crowds are leftist protesters, paid activists, Soros funded actors, etc. The social engineering of MAGA, especially via Elon's Twitter needs to be stopped - this is not free speech in any way shape or form, it's fucking evil.

“I disagree,” Hagemen said, once again souring the crowd on her. The Republican lawmaker then went on to accost the irate crowd for challenging her actions, claiming it was “bizarre” to her “how obsessed you are with federal government.”

It's a literal townhall with your constituents who VOTED FOR YOU to represent them in a federal capacity lmfao

No awareness no empathy, bent her knee to Trump and is groveling at his feet. Hopefully this is every town hall every campaign stop for all of these republicans at least for the next 4 years until we have a shot at getting Trump out of office.
