NYT reporter removed from Trump rally in Michigan

Source: The Hill

A New York Times reporter claims she was removed from President Trump’s campaign rally in Freeland, Mich., on Thursday after campaign staff located her using images she posted on Twitter.

As the rally was getting started, Kathy Gray noted on Twitter that out of the thousands of people who were at the rally, "maybe 10% have masks." Gray then posted a photo of Air Force One with the caption “And so it begins” shortly before the president began speaking at the rally.

“I’ve just been kicked out of the trump rally,” Gray tweeted less than 15 minutes later.

She later added: “First for me: Trump campaign tracked me down from pics i tweeted and escorted me out.”

They likely look those people over very closely.

Next time she'll wear a MAGA hat, stars & stripes shirt, and wave a six foot Trump flag while chanting USA! USA!. Then she'll blend right in.

and spends time and money to show up to be lied to?

I was just watching trump on television telling a Michigan maskless crowd that we were turning the corner on Corona cases and the number of new infections were plunging. Then in the same breath, because that wasn't a big enough exaggeration, he said we had turned the corner on Corona cases.

consider it a badge of honor! Should we really interfere when Trump is busy killing off his supporters?
The media gives him far too much attention,,,tune him out...let him spread it among the cult goers!
