Please clap …

Ryland Barton is a statehouse reporter for Kentucky Public Radio, and he’s got the scoop from today’s “Puppet Show and Donald Trump Jr.” event in Pikeville, Kentucky:

Organizers have asked the audience to move out of the seats and closer to the stage ahead of Trump Jr/ Gov. Bevin event in Pikeville.

And here’s the dispatch from WYMT News:

Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle are in Pikeville for Governor Matt Bevin and Dr. Ralph Alvarado's election campaign.

The rally at the Appalachian Wireless Arena was supposed to start at 2:30 p.m. Thursday but was a bit delayed.

Locals expected a memorable turnout as the President of the United State's son took the floor of the arena.

Memorable, indeed.

And here’s another look at the venue, with Trump Jr. on the dais:

Could it be Kentuckians are finally figuring out that Republicans want to take away their health care?

Nah, that can’t be it.

Is Trump still chafing your arse-cheeks? Then Dear F*cking Lunatic: 101 Obscenely Rude Letters to Donald Trump and its breathlessly awaited sequel Dear F*cking Moron: 101 More Letters to Donald Trump by Aldous J. Pennyfarthing are the pick-me-up you need! Reviewers have called these books “hysterically funny,” “cathartic,” and “laugh-out-loud” comic relief. And they’re way, way cheaper than therapy.
