Thousands of former President Trump's supporters seem very happy they attended Trump's 2024 campaign kick-off rally in Waco on Saturday.
Waco police are not providing estimates of the crowd size but lines were very long and many attendees had to mark miles from the site at Waco Regional Airport.
The Trump campaign plane began to circle the airfield about 6 p.m. Saturday and Trump wrapped up his remarks by about 7:30 p.m. The gates opened at 8 a.m. but the lines were already getting long even before sunrise.
The crowd was loud and enthusiastic, waving 'Trump 2024' campaign signs and wearing 'Make America Great Again' caps and T-shirts.
The former President was joined by notable Republicans like Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick and businessman Mike Lindell. Rocker Ted Nugent also attended.
Trump's remarks touched on familiar themes like border security, his belief that the 2020 election was stolen and his accusations that President Biden's economic and social policies have harmed the nation.
