thank you for posting this clip, good to see Iowans know exactly what to say!
I just got home from watching the motorcade and seeing all the people at the rally. It was absolutely amazing how many people were there and the whole area was totally clogged up. We actually got a parking spot pretty close to the doors but we hadn't gone down there to actually attend the rally. Just wanted to show POTUS our banner and show our support. I'm hard of hearing so would have had to have a sign language interpreter to attend... it IS in the same town as the Iowa School for the Deaf so I wondered if they had anyone there.
When I got there at 4:30 the line was already close to a mile long..... HOLY COW.
We waited for the POTUS for about an hour, watching the officers and seeing them shut down the motorcade route was quite a sight.... all in intermittent pouring rain.
Everyone knew when POTUS had arrived.... his plane flew low over the Convention Center at about 5:45 and we were all thrilled. We could hear it VERY loudly, but couldn't see it because of the low clouds. About fifteen minutes later we saw three Omaha Motorcycle Police come through, and then we saw the Motorcade.
It was a lot of fun to attend and see what a operation it really is.
My wife and I had fun making this banner together!!!
If anyone has video of the Motorcade Route on 23rd Ave and Nebraska Ave on MidAmerica Drive that would be awesome.... we weren't able to take pictures, holding our banner and our umbrellas in the rain.
