    I’m trying to imagine being one of those backstage people. How do you not feel sudden and intense fear when this guy says that to a huge crowd of morons? Do I already have to be one of those morons in order to agree to do setup for this guy’s rally?

    And what about whoever’s doing setup for the next show? I would probably stop showing up for work…

      There was a mic problem at another rally. I suspect that the union folks have been looking at Project 2025 and have figured out where they really stand.

    For starters, he probably didn’t pay them. My friend is an audio engineer and they literally started packing up equipment twice before . It’s a miracle he hasn’t had them seize the equipment whilst he’s on stage

    Secondly, there is no incentive for any decent audio engineers to work for him. He threatened to sue them personally last time it dropped out

    Finally, he could have his own crew. But I’m guessing he doesn’t because nobody would want to work for him, since he has a temper tantrum when anything happens

    It’s funny how Harris’s equipment always works… That’s what happens when you treat people with respect

    I see, so the only two options for a faulty mic are; A. Give it a blowjob or B. Inflict violence on the techs.

    Certainly the actions of a sane and normal man.

      Guy can barely walk or even bring his sippy cup to his weird lips— and that’s using both little hands.

        Almost fell over trying to open a truck door. You’d win a fight with him by ducking a haymaker.

    “I get so angry. I’m up here seething. I’m seething. I’m working my ass off with this stupid mic. I’m blowing out my left arm, now I’m going to blow out my right arm, and I’m blowing out my damn throat too, because these stupid people.”

    Old angry fat man is to old and weak to hold onto a microphone. Sad!

    yes, i’d love to witness you committing multiple state felonies (the verbal threat itself may also have been one in wisconsin).

    I’m not sure how but they missed the bit where he gave the microphone a hand job then followed up with a quick head job.

    You know… normal campaign stuff just before the election…

      He demanded the mics to be so loud that he got feedback from the speakers. Then he got feedback from the speakers.

    The only way he could knock someone out is by sitting his fat stinky ass on their chest for a couple minutes.

    Yes, please, add assault to his list of crimes! Preferably on camera, in front of plenty of witnesses, and unprovoked so he has zero chance of talking his way out of it!

    This isn’t the first time he claims to have technical issues. Why doesn’t he just bring his own shit?

    This constant whining over stuff and stiffing contractors really isn’t a great flex for someone who wants to be in charge of anything.
