Trump at Bronx rally: Resident say atmosphere was electrifying.

Lifelong Bronx resident John Garland discusses the experience at the Trump rally in the Bronx, N.Y, on Jesse Watters Primetime. 

Jesse Watters: John Garland is a lifelong Bronx resident and former Democrat and He Joins me now.  What was it like out there today?

John Garland:  It was exciting.  The entire atmosphere was electrifying.  There were people from all over the Bronx, Black, white and Hispanic.  There was Asians, there was Jews.  There were, like it was just a smorgasbord of basically patriots.

Jesse:   And why was everybody there today?  Was it that they’re sick of Joe Biden?  They love Trump? The economy? How would you describe it?

John Garland:  I would describe it as people came out here to show that they were fed up.  They were fed up with the systemic racism, they were fed up with being systemically excluded and it’s not just minorities.  It’s about the American people.  You know? We made up a whole, you know, like a whole spectrum of different people. You Know?

Jesse:  Was there something that Donald Trump said tonight that really hit home for everybody and You?  

John Garland: There wasn’t anything that was in particular that moved me.  It the the whole thing, as a whole, it was the sum of its parts.  We’ve had, I mean, there were people who were expressing themselves in a way and that they were fed up.  People from the Bronx were fed up and the people from New York were fed up.  And we want to have something different.  We want change, and Donald Trump has promised to bring change and he has proven that he can do that.   You know, this isn’t somebody who’s just stepping into the political arena as he was in 2016.  Now he is experience.  He has, you know he has went through what he said to go through.  The man’s skin is as think as steel.  We are here for him because he is here for us.

Jesse:  So you are saying you’re looking for hope and change.  And Donald Trump is that Guy?

John Garland:  Yes
