Can someone try to make sense of this for me? Trump has traveled 37 times on Air Force 1 to go to US Cities to campaign and rally for the right, and every single time he does that, the cost to do so is in the tens of millions.
Isn't that a very expensive pursuit to go preach to the choir, and say the exact same **** every day, and every night?
These rallies are full stadiums of republicans and conservatives that are already voting red, minus 2 or 3 protesters that get kicked out. Complete waste of $$ in my opinion. Oh but wait, we've taken in 21 trillion LOL, right?

Total waste of money. Hope it is the Super Pac's money and not the taxpayer's.

Past Presidents have gone out and campaigned during midterms, just not a heavy schedule like Donny's. Shows desperation on his part, IMO.
 
Do a Google search on Midterm campaign stops by Obama, Bush and Clinton. But these guys made sure the main point of their appearances was to support, talk about the candidate(s) and why they should be elected. Donny probably talks about the candidate for 3 or 4 minutes, and the rest is about himself, how great a President he's been, how he's been persecuted, that all of America's problems belong to Biden, yada, yada, yada. He can't just speak for 30 minutes, he's got to talk for over 1.5 hours, and even rambling off on mysterious topics (Apparently he told one rally he could say something stupid, and they'd clap? And they did?)
The issue of using AF1 Main issue is it HAS to be used, not only for security of any POTUS, but it also becomes the "Flying White House", a War situation room, and more if an emergency happens.

Yeah I understand all of that, but he's rallying his own party, and already has their votes. I just don't get it. Oh well thanks Dennis.

When you have a job to do, people often fly to make travel quicker. Depending on your business, you might take several flights to keep everyone happy.
Do we always look at what our neighbor is doing and complain.
Could Zoom and put him on a big screen.

Post is about Trump fly everywhere how much the cost. The cost we pay is like the CEO of a company who has to keep supply and demand in balance.
You complain when your boss spend money on his company to keep you employed.

tntrecycling :
My post was not about that. My post was focused on the fact that he is doing so every night, saying the same crap, and saying it to the ones that already support him. It costs 10s of millions every day. I guess you didn't understand my post or I wasn't clear.

There is all kinds of screaming and yelling go on because of this stupidity and arrogance on Trumps part. The donors and others think the time would have been possibly spent better by going to states where the R had a fighting chance. Specifically, in the senate races MS and SC. But the R candidates are female, is that the reason he didn't go to SC and MS? Too late now as the party as now ceded the races to Ds.
