http://wtvr.com/Apparently the local CBS affiliate will preempt their normal shows at 7pm (pre game) and show his speech live at 8pm (usually NCIS L. A. ). Can't find if the ABC and NBC affiliates are.
On top of that in basically a 2 mile area today/tonight

The cops will have their hands full.
Anti-Trump rallies:
One at a City park just outside where McGraw is performing (they may march down to the Coliseum).
Another -The Constitution Party - right outside the Coliseum.
ACLU will be in hand to observe both.

I don't see him being able to hold back. Warren's speech last night was devastating...he's going to lose it and soon.

(19,359 posts)Interesting situation: If Trump stays on teleprompter, will his supporters come in droves (top hear a canned speech as he put it)? Will he get so much free media time if he is always prepared? And will Trump be psychologically able to stay on a message other than himself?
If he leaves the teleprompter . . . merriment ensues.

(182,834 posts)Staying safe could mean less coverage. He stated just this week that he doesn't need to raise a billion dollars because he is going to rely on all the free coverage. No mindless rants and, what I think is staged, violence - will they still cover every speech?
