Ohio. Yes, Ohio

Any bets on what the trumpers will chant in Cincinnati tonight?

Snip-"DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) – Thursday night, President Trump will make a campaign stop in Cincinnati. The rally will be his 29th trip to the state, as he looks ahead to his 2020 re-election bid.

A look at the guest list illustrates just how important this event is to the President: Senator Rob Portman is invited, Governor Mike DeWine will be there, and the Vice President will address the crowd of thousands.

Snip-"Governor DeWine’s press secretary says he looks forward to speaking with the President, and will introduce the Vice President at the rally.

While Senator Portman is invited, he may be unable to attend due to Senate votes in Washington."


"Nice guys" in better fitted suits won't chant racist slogans publicaly, but they vote for trump & his policies .

Snip-"Don't take the bait. We're asking you, Mr. President, your supporters and your detractors to set a new example for presidential visits. Setting an example not only includes people at the rally or protesting it, but those commenting about it on social media.

Let's do our part to dignify the debate about how best to improve our nation and the lives of all Americans. Perhaps if we can show the way, the rest of the country might follow suit. We know this appeal might sound naive, but we cannot stop expecting the best from ourselves or our president. Here are this editorial board's hopes for Thursday's rally.

The president made news this week with his criticism of Democratic U.S. Rep. Elijah Cummings because of the poor conditions in parts of the congressman's district in Baltimore. Cincinnati, represented by two Republican congressmen and a senator, suffers from many of the same challenges as Baltimore – gun violence, poverty, blight, gentrification – just to a lesser degree. In fact, some of the most impoverished areas of our city border downtown where the president will be addressing a crowd of thousands."
