in-town-pool report #6 - rallygoer quotes, more hecklers

Police removed three more hecklers from the arena about 20 minutes into the president's speech. One man yelled "traitor" and another yelled "release the Epstein files" as she was led away by police.

"These people are crazy," Trump said.

A few minutes later another heckler started making noise. Your pooler saw a melee as police moved in.

Trump said, "That was incredible...Who was the guy who threw that punch."

"The guy stood up and he got whacked, man."

Your pooler interviewed rallygoer Linda Stumper, a 66-year-old retiree from Anderson, S.C., who said she likes Darline Graham. "I didn't know anything about her until recently."

"I'm thrilled that you know we're getting oil brought it back into the country. I'd love to see the end of the wars. I think enough people have died, and if it was up to him, I know he would end it if he could."

Another rallygoer, Melody Edie of Anderson, S.C., who is 58 and also retired, worea Darline Graham t-shirt but said she didn't know her too well.

"I just trust Trump. I trust his decision. If he backs her, then I back her."

Regarding the economy, Edie said, "I don't think it's any worse than when we've had Democrats in office. And we've got a president that's having to work extra hard to fix what they put us in. This mess that we're going through is because of the Democrats."
