Trump however utilized the celebration to call the charges versus him “bullshit”, with viewers then shouting the word back at him.
The Philadelphia Inquirer kept in mind that the previous president’s fans had actually put into Wildwood in “pickup dressed up in Trump flags” from up and down the east coast.
According to the outlet, numerous individuals established camp over night on the boardwalk to enter the occasion.
“The nation is headed in the incorrect instructions,” Kelly Carter-Currier, a 62-year-old retired instructor from New Hampshire, informed the Inquirer. “So, ideally, individuals will get their shit together and vote the best individual in. And if they do not, I do not understand. World War III?”
