Former President Donald Trump was recently spotted handing over a cap to one of his fans who was seen crying.
A woman broke down in tears today at @TrumpBedminster because she was so overwhelmed that Donald Trump signed a hat for her.
Donald Trump is so loved.
The people who love him outnumber those who hate him and we will get him back where he belongs:
The White House.

Fox News contributor and legal commentator Leo Terrell dismissed the idea that any of the charges leveled against former president Donald Trump in four separate indictments have “any merit whatsoever” during an appearance on The Faulkner Focus Tuesday via Media Ite.
“They’re trying to stop Trump from running for president,” Terrell told Harris Faulkner. “The Democrats are using the legal system — this is why this is so weird — they’re using the legal system for political gains. And basically what they’re doing is a [sic] opposing candidate through the legal system. That’s not how our legal system works.”
Terrell continued on with analysis that eschewed legal arguments for political ones:
These cases, in my opinion, do not have any merit whatsoever. From all the four cases that have been charged for indictments, these cases are purely political. That’s why it’s so hard, as a lawyer of 30 years, to see these cases through the legal lens of how justice is served.
After Faulkner asked “how far a legal reach” Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was making with her indictment of Trump in Georgia, Terrell conceded that there were “specific election laws” in the Peach State that at least made Willis’s allegations actionable, but he quickly returned to mounting a full-throated defense of the former president.
“But whether or not there’s merit to these charges, for example, the DA claims that there’s 161 acts. Like tweeting? Like a phone call? So she has basically thrown the kitchen sink at Trump. I don’t think the case has merit from a standard of the fact that Trump was basically articulating his right as president during the time and his First Amendment right,” said Terrell. “There is nothing wrong with saying over the phone ‘Hey, I need to find 11,000 votes.’ That’s not criminal! That’s speech!”
