THE NARRATIVE AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS


Threats to freedom of speech, writing and action, though often trivial in isolation, are cumulative in their effect and, unless checked, lead to a general disrespect for the rights of the citizen. -George Orwell

#MARCOMENTUM ON DISPLAY IN EASLEY, SC!



Yesterday, Marco followed up his win at the debate with a victory lap on all five major Sunday shows. After that, he headed to Easley, South Carolina, where he was met by a crowd of over 2,000 supporters.
The event was organized by state Rep. Neal Collins, who used Facebook and his network of supporters to get more than 2,000 people pre-registered – more than twice as many as the auditorium is designed to hold.
Some stayed back in the cafeteria and ate Mutt's barbecue, baked beans and slaw in what was intended as an overflow room, but because of problems with the live feed, they spilled out into the hallways and aisles of the auditorium.
"I couldn't be more proud being a day-one supporter of him," Collins said.
Some who came said they were looking to find a candidate to get behind to assure that Trump doesn't become the nominee.
Greg Hall, owner of a small electrical contracting business in Easley, said he likes Rubio and neurosurgeon Ben Carson and was trying to learn more about both to make up his mind on how to vote in Saturday's primary.
His wife, Holly, said she wants to see the party get past all the "bickering, name calling and personal attacks" of the Peace Center debate.
"I think we need to reach a point where all of the Republicans can kind of work together because there is going to come a point where we need to stand behind each other if we're going to beat Hillary Clinton," she said. "And I didn't see a whole lot of that last night."
She said she thinks Rubio is the stronger candidate between he and Carson, and he appeals to her conservative Christian perspective.
Easley Mayor Larry Bagwell, who welcomed the crowd to the event, said he had been undecided, but after watching Rubio's performance in the debate, and hearing him Sunday, he has decided to give the senator from Florida his vote.
"I think his enthusiasm, he's been very vocal that he believes in this country, he believes in the Constitution as it is written," Bagwell said.
At the end of the event came a moment that now has everyone talking:
