Trump Holds Rally In Hickory
HICKORY, NC– Trump arrived nearly two hours late monday to a packed auditorium at Lenoir Rhyne University due to weather delay.
But he had plenty of promises for local voters, who waited to hear him speak.
” We’re going to start winning again. We’re going to win at every level. We are going to win a military win for our vets. We going to win education… Knock out common core ” said Trump
Trump promised to bring capitalism back to America and stop giving handouts.
” We have such poor healthcare. We have such poor everything. We have no incentives to go out and do what you want to do ”
Something that resonated with supporters.
“People go out now they don’t have to work. I work everyday. They don’t have to. All they do is sit at home draw a check” said one Trump supporter
Just like past Trump rallies, protesters were escorted out.
Six were cited or arrested. Others were removed without incident
“He’s going to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it and then once he stated that I held up my sign and they were like ‘ok let’s come on out.’ ” said a protester.
Some protesters were more vocal, yelling profanity at Trump.
Thousands never made it inside so they protested out front.
