—

9:06 PM: Before ending another raucous rally, Trump tells his supporters “when” you see Democrats trying to cheat at the ballot box, report them to the election authorities who will be waiting for these reports.

9:00 PM: Trump asks his supporters to defeat this very bad ideology on the left that is worse than socialism before promising to make America the world’s manufacturing capital while ending America’s reliance on foreign countries.

8:55 PM: Trump again telling the story about how he and the First Lady wanted to watch coverage from the establishment media about his Nobel Prize nomination and saw no coverage. He says it was “a little embarrassing” after he talked up his nomination to Melania.

Trump says if Biden were in charge, ISIS would be on the March and China would be the dominant power in the world. He says the Biden agenda will “obliterate our economy” and drain Medicare by giving health care to illegal immigrants.

8:47 PM: Trump says Biden is a “shameless phony” who “pretends to care about blue-collar workers after spending” nearly five decades in Washington. He says history says when you are here for 47 years and you fail, “it’s not going to happen.”

He says Biden was opening borders, outsourcing jobs, and inflicting “economic carnage.”

8:40 PM: Trump introduces two high school football players who became more famous than “President Trump” for displaying pro-police flags on the field. Trump says they are going to Hollywood and become movie actors. Trump thanks their parents for letting them do that as the crowd chants “USA!”

8:39 PM: Trump says he is doing great in the black and Hispanic communities in the polls. He says Biden’s goal to dismantle police departments will hurt black and Hispanic communities the most. Trump says he will always stand with the men and women of law enforcement. Trump says “we have to give them back their dignity. We have to let them do their jobs.”

8:37 PM: Trump now reminds voters Biden picked Harris after Harris was so vicious to him during the debates that Trump felt sorry for him. Trump still can’t grasp that Biden picked someone who was critical of him.

8:36 PM: Trump warns Biden’s Democrats will indoctrinate America’s children with “poisonous lies” about America and says “no party can lead America that doesn’t teach children to love America.”

8:35 PM: Trump says “we all have heart” but if we give free college education and health care to illegal immigrants, everyone will flood across the border.

8:32 PM: Trump rips Biden for criticizing Trump’s Coronavirus response after his “incompetent” handling of the Swine Flu.

8:25 PM: Trump says we are rounding the turn on the Coronavirus and says he is proud that Big Ten football and Ohio State football will be coming back. Trump says he didn’t think about Big Ten football too much before Biden ran a “disinformation” ad. Trump says he called up the commissioner and asked what he could do to get Big Ten football back up and running. Trump says he helped them with testing because “we have the greatest testing in the world.” Trump says all of a sudden the pressure became so great that the full league is opening again. Trump says it’s not about taking credit but ads that “we were the ones who did it.”

8:23 PM: Trump says he heard from someone that Democrats are “not even trying for Ohio” because “I love you and you love me, and that’s the way it is.”

8:17 PM: After saying the Second Amendment wouldn’t be here if he were not president, Trump says he is the only thing standing between “you and chaos.”

Trump says Biden’s justices will remove “under God” from the Pledge of Allegiance. Trump says “they want to take God out of everything.”

He says Democrats also want to ban prayer in public schools and make taxpayers pay for late-term abortion. He says Biden’s justices also want to “erase borders.”

Trump says Biden will “cripple” police departments and make the death penalty unconstitutional.

8:11 PM: Trump says he thinks the Supreme Court is the reason he won the 2016 race.

8:06 PM: Trump dares Democrats to impeach him for nominating a Supreme Court Justice like he’s Constitutionally obligated to do. He says he’s the only person who could get impeached for filling a Supreme Court seat.

Trump says he’s going to be announcing his pick on Friday or Saturday. He keeps stressing that this is the “most important thing” for a president.

He now says “probably Saturday” he will announce the nominee.

He says Biden has refused to list the names of his potential nominees because they are too extreme. He says Biden will pack the court with far-left radicals who will transform American society “far beyond recognition.” He says they will usher in a socialist agenda from the bench because they can’t pass it with legislation.

8:04 PM: Trump says you get in big trouble if you say “suburban housewives.” So he says “suburban women” don’t want project next to their communities. Trump says this includes minorities who live in the suburbs. He said he got rid of the Obama-Biden “regulation” that was “destroying suburbia.” He says “suburbia has gotta wake up.” He tells the crowd the Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) is in charge of the program so “you better get smart.”

8:02 PM: Crowd chants “fill that seat” after Trump says he’s going to be announcing his nominee soon. He says he doesn’t want to make the “men too angry,” but “it’s going to be a woman.”

8:01 PM: Trump rips the cable networks for not airing his rallies live. He says they would be great for ratings.

8:00 PM: Trump, with another New  York reference, says it feels like Madison Square Garden on the ground but with more people.

7:57 PM: Trump says he’s going to win Ohio by more than he did in 2016. Trump says he has televisions everywhere–from ceilings to bathrooms–and he says the poll that showed him tied in Ohio is “fake.”

“I don’t think so,” Trump says. He says they said he would lose Ohio before he won by nine points.

Trump says in 2016 they said he would go home early, and he did–as a victor.

7:56 PM: Trump gets up to the podium and is ready for his primetime rally. “This is a big crowd,” Trump says as the crowd chants: “USA!” USA!”

7:40 PM: Air Force One is about to land, and the rally should begin shortly.

7:20 PM: After holding an event for workers in Vandalia, high-energy Trump will hold another big rally in Swanton, Ohio, this evening. Trump concluded his event in Vandalia and is on his way to Swanton.
