Movies re: 2024 Election:TRUMP to Deploy Soldiers at Polling Places & SELLS Bibles to Raise Cash

Bar Will Shut Down to Avoid Serving TRUMPS' Supporters During RNC

TRUMP Says There's Going to Be a BLOODBATH If He Doesn't get Elected

It's a Slaughter': Reporter Describes RNC Layoffs After TRUMP Takeover

MSNBC 17 MAR 2024





Milwaukee bar owner plans to temporarily shutter his establishment during the Republican National Convention (RNC) this summer to avoid serving supporters of former President Donald Trump.



The RNC will be held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, from July 15 to 18. After Trump reached the 1,215 delegates required to clinch the GOP presidential nomination on Tuesday, delegates are expected to formally select the former president as the Republican Party's nominee during the convention.

The Mothership, a ****tail bar on Logan Avenue in the Bay View neighborhood of Milwaukee, describes itself as a "stupid idiot booze dungeon" on Facebook and frequently shares colorful posts on the social media platform. While the convention is estimated to draw roughly 50,000 visitors to the city, the bar's owner and operator Ricky Ramirez wants nothing to do with the crowd.

In an interview with Rolling Stone published on Saturday, Ramirez said he grew up with a "kind of chip on my shoulder" regarding discrimination as the child of first-generation immigrants and living in a city that still deals with segregation. As many Republicans have embraced what critics decry as racist, anti-immigration rhetoric Ramirez told the outlet that "if there's an influx of those kinds of people, then I'd rather just be closed."
"I don't f****** care who comes into my bar on the norm, but it's such a heightened event where people are very proudly going to be confirming that Donald Trump's the nominee for the party again," he said.



TRUMP; 'There'll Be a BLOODBATH'






TRUMP claimed that he — not President Joe Biden — will protect Social Security and warned of a “bloodbath” if he loses in November as he campaigned for Senate candidate Bernie Moreno in Ohio.






Trump, speaking on a wind-whipped airfield outside of Dayton Saturday, praised his chosen candidate in the race as an “America first champion” and “political outsider who has spent his entire life building up Ohio communities.”

“He’s going to be a warrior in Washington,” Trump said, days after securing enough delegates to clinch the 2024 Republican nomination.

Moreno faces Secretary of State Frank LaRose and state Sen. Matt Dolan in Tuesday’s GOP primary. LaRose and Moreno have aligned themselves with the pro-Trump faction of the party, while Dolan is backed by more establishment Republicans, including Gov. Mike DeWine and former Sen. Rob Portman.

Saturday’s rally was hosted by Buckeye Values PAC, a group backing Moreno’s candidacy. But Trump used the stage to deliver a profanity-filled version of his usual rally speech that again painted an apocalyptic picture of the country if Biden wins a second term.


“If I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath ... It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country,” he warned

...Later, Trump claimed that, “If this election isn’t won, I’m not sure that you’ll ever have another election in this country.”



Trump repeatedly noted his difficulty reading from his teleprompters, which could be seen visibly whipping in 35-mile-per-hour wind gusts.

A one-time Trump critic, Moreno, a wealthy Cleveland businessman, supported Marco Rubio for president in the 2016 Republican primary, and once tweeted that listening to Trump was “like watching a car accident that makes you sick, but you can stop looking.” In 2021, NBC News reported on an email exchange around the time of Trump’s first presidential run in which Moreno referred to Trump as a “lunatic” and a “maniac.”

On Saturday, however, Moreno praised Trump as a “great American” and railed against those in his party who have been critical of the former president, who this week became his party’s presumptive nominee for a third straight election.
