POTUS went around the table and introduced participants to speak about the various provisions and how the policies have impacted them. At the end, POTUS ran through three policies — no tax on social security, tips and overtime — and had the crowd clap for their favorite.

Event wrapped at 5:46 pm, as the YMCA blasted over the speakers. POTUS danced on stage, and the crowd cheered.

Pool was moved to vans, so did not see POTUS exit the stage.

Also, in my last note, that should’ve been “over next week or so” but please double check with feed. The added “two” was a typo on my end. Apologies, typing quickly.
