Donald Trump
Where and when? We've got the deets.

Here’s what you need to know about President Donald Trump’s upcoming rallies in Florida.

Where

The Villages event will be held at The Villages Polo Club on Buena Vista Boulevard, according to Fox 35 in Orlando.

The rally in Pensacola will be at the ST Engineering hangar at the Pensacola International Airport, according to the Pensacola News Journal.

When

The rally at the Villages is expected to start at 4:30 p.m. Doors to the venue open at 1:30 p.m.

Meanwhile, doors open in Pensacola at 4 p.m. with Trump expected to speak at 7 p.m.

Safety procedures

All attendees will be required to go through temperature checks and will be instructed to wear face masks. Hand sanitizer will be available on site.

Florida Tally

This marks the third visit to Florida for the President since the first debate and will be his first trip here following the final debate with Democrat Joe Biden on Thursday.

Opposition

Terrie Rizzo, Florida Democratic Party chair, won’t warmly greet the campaign. “The last thing Floridians need is for Donald Trump to host more potential super spreader rallies across our state. What we do need, however, is a President capable of putting Floridians ahead of his own self-interest and get this pandemic under control. More than 16,000 people have died in Florida because of COVID-19, yet President Trump continues to ignore the crisis and mislead the public,” she said.

“Floridians are standing between Donald Trump and four more years in the White House. We must exercise that power and vote early for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, leaders we can trust to manage this pandemic and bring back our jobs. Make sure every single one of your friends, family, and neighbors has a plan to vote at iwillvote.com.

RSVP

Tickets for events can be reserved in advance at DonaldJTrump.com, which will presumably become available some time Thursday.

    This should result in an upswing in estate sales at The Villages.

    Y’all need to grow up and grow a pair.
    No one on this earth, can, or has, been able to control this virus and no one ever will.
    We must go on living, and that means WE adapt to the Virus, because we will never make it adapt to us.
    We, as humans, have a long way to go to accept that we are not always in control of everything that goes on around us.
    Even the medical experts know that shutting everything down does not work.

    The Farewell Tour. Except almost every band whose music he uses demands that he stop doing it.
    Don’t let the screen door hit you on your way out!
