CNN nails it: Trump gets what he wants in Florida: Campaign-level adulation

[spanone]

Melbourne, Florida (CNN)President Donald Trump, after a month of arduous and, at times, turbulent governing, got what he came for Saturday during a dusk rally here: Campaign-level adulation.

Trump, who just months ago finished campaigning for the office he now holds, was both selling what his administration has done in its first 30 days and trying to change the subject after a chaotic month. The President was forced to fire his national security adviser, struggled to roll out his travel ban and strained to explain a growing story about how members of his 2016 campaign made repeated contact with Russian individuals known to US intelligence.

Trump, clearly ready for some relief from the confines of Washington and the limitations of the house he ran to occupy, reverted back to his campaign habits, basking in what energized him for months during the slog of his race against Hillary Clinton.

At one point, Trump invited Gene Huber, a supporter up to the stage, who was briefly stopped by the Secret Service before the President urged agents to let him come up and address the audience.

He will say that he is speaking directly to the people, and use them as a way of saying whatever he wants to say without having to answer any pesky questions.

That has 6 million people in it. Our problem isn't Trump voters, our problem are the smart ass purist Stein voters that think they know everything and the non voters that would have voted with us had they gotten off their asses for an hour.
