Donald Trump cancels campaign stop in Akron and struggles to find donors in Ohio............
The Trump campaign tried to organize an Akron event with only two days notice. But a tentative agreement to rent out E.J. Thomas Hall at the University of Akron on Friday fell through after the campaign and the Secret Service, which had little time to develop a security plan for the event, visited the site Thursday.
............
Debbie Walsh, former executive director for the county party, said her team was close to finding names for the introductory speakers and was busy combing donor lists or contacting elected officials and candidates to pass out the VIP tickets.
Who would have sat in the other 2,950 seats is a mystery. The Trump campaign has not returned emails or phone calls seeking comment before or after the event was canceled around 3 p.m. Thursday.
...........
While its not known if the event was a rally or a fundraiser, Trump has struggled to court donors in Ohio and elsewhere. And he may have even more trouble here after this weeks fallout with Gov. John Kasich, who has collected many loyal check-writers in his decades of public service.

No quibble was intended with your spelling, but rather with that sheisskopf's turn of phrase. nt.

looks like a tape
and it looks like there's no teleprompter in site
he should be REAL animated, in that case, not having the TP constraints. I might have to turn the sound up and see if he starts ranting uncontrollably

''I'm a builder, I build buildings, I build things. We're gonna win New York. we're gonna try to win new York....you talk about money, oy yoi yoi!''
talking about rich guys now, alternating between rich oil guys, and barry switzer, football coach.
just totally free-associating!
this is so crazy

and 'Oy vey'. I can see him feasibly using the pirate one, but that's about it.

But I don't know if LeBron's agent will allow it.
