WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is holding an early August campaign rally in West Virginia.

Trump’s campaign says the event is scheduled for Aug. 3 at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena in Huntington.

Trump held a campaign rally this week in Youngstown, Ohio. The president has been holding campaign-style events in friendly territory to escape Washington and recharge in front of crowds of boisterous supporters.

Trump was in West Virginia earlier this week to address the Boy Scouts’ national jamboree in a speech that was widely panned for its aggressive political rhetoric. The Boy Scouts’ chief executive apologized Thursday to scouting community members who were offended by the speech.

  1. Gee, I’d love to watch Hair Führer deliver National Scout Jamboree Disaster Redux and see the sycophants cheer on cue and re-hear all the non-stop non sequiturs about Hillary and record-size crowds and red maps and loyalty and, especially, how William Levitt bought a yuge yacht, moored it in South Florida, and held non-stop orgies yet, alas, it didn’t make him happy😿, but I have much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much better things to do that day.

    (all times Eastern)

    BTW I sure hope his campaign remembers to reimburse the federal government for the use of Air Force One for campaign-related events. Not doing so would be a violation of Campaign Finance Laws and I wouldn’t want to see him get in trouble.

  2. Campaign rallies are obnoxious enough three-and-a-half years out, but holding one immediately after your signature domestic policy issue went down in flames?

  3. Not that I’ll watch but when he goes off script for this one it will be a doozy.

  4. “the Big Sandy Superstore Arena”

    Sounds perfect for his constituency.

  5. They love him there. He loves to look down on them there. Everybody’s happy. Any chance we can convince him to stay?
