The Adams County Fairgrounds transformed into Trump-land for the former president, who is still very popular in this part of Illinois.
Gary Rabine, another GOP hopeful, is working the crowd. His bus was kicked off the fairgrounds and supporters were told to cover their t-shirts if they want to get in the rally."If he's endorsing somebody, you know, it might be Darren Bailey. If it is, he's endorsing Pritzker's candidate. Pritzker wants Darren Bailey to win, he's the easiest person for Pritzker to beat," Rabine said.
Governor JB Pritzker sounded like a potential presidential candidate, attacking Trump in a pre-rally tweet. "Whether motivated by ego or downright malice, Donald Trump continues to lie with impunity about the results of the 2020 election," Pritzker said in the campaign video."I thought, well, it's my chance to see the president of the United States. I want to see him, that's why I'm here," said Matthew Dobey, of Quincy."Absolutely. He was, is, was the best president," said Karen Kern, of Quincy.
Donald Trump is scheduled to go on stage at 7 p.m. There are about 2,400 chairs set up inside, plus bleachers and lots of standing room, and people are still coming in despite the heat index over 100 degrees.
