10: PM: Trump said Democrats will be “dangerous” if they take over Congress because it would be like handing “matches to an arsonist–you don’t give power to an angry left-wing mob.”

Pres. @realDonaldTrump: "You don't hand matches to an arsonist and you don't give power to an angry left-wing mob – and that's what they've become. The Democrats have become too extreme and too dangerous to govern. Republicans believe in the rule of law, not the rule of the mob." pic.twitter.com/q9SsURhmdB — The Hill (@thehill) October 7, 2018

From Breitbart’s Matt Perdie’s notebook at the anti-Kavanaugh protests (this is what Trump was talking about):

– Police were keeping people from stepping on the front stairway of the Supreme Court.

– A topless protester began chanting and running behind the police who were standing at the front most steps of SCOTUS.

– The topless protester ran in front of the door of SCOTUS.

– A few other protesters then ran up one by one.

– Eventually a group of protesters began charging SCOTUS followed by everyone else.

– Protesters began to bang on the doors of the SCOTUS.

– Police set up a line in front of the door and blocked protesters from the door, the police then started pushing the protesters back slowly.

– The police set up a barricade.

– Protesters decided to go to the other side of the Supreme Court to try and block Kavanaugh from leaving SCOTUS.

– A group of about 700-800 protesters gathered on the other side of SCOTUS.

– Protesters harassed and chucked water at 2 vehicles leaving SCOTUS.

– Eventually the crowd began to dwindle.

“I have more Indian blood in me than Pocahontas… and I have none” @realDonaldTrump just now. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 so epic!!! — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) October 7, 2018

Hey @realDonaldTrump, hope you’re having fun at your rally. Too bad you’re the least popular incumbent president in modern history. And in the meantime, we are coming for your pathetic rubber-stamp Republicans in Congress in 31 days. — Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) October 7, 2018

8:33 PM: After blasting “loco” Democrats, Trump says “this is the time to choose.”

“It’s not up to the media. It’s not up to the pundits. It’s up to you to decide your fate,” Trump says. “You have the power with your vote to defend your family, your community, your country, and everything we hold sacred and righteous and true.”

8:14 PM: Trump mocking “sleepy Joe Biden” who could never get more than 1% before Obama took him “off the trash heap.”

“That wouldn’t last long,” Trump says after referencing Biden’s remarks about wanting to fight Trump. “He would never get up.”

8:00 PM: Crowd boos when Trump asks if they want Pelosi to become Speaker again. Trump says a majority of House Democrats have sponsored a “socialist takeover of healthcare” that will ultimately “eviscerate Medicare.” Trump says Republicans will protect Medicare for “our great seniors who have earned it and paid for it. And we will always protect Americans with pre-existing conditions. We will take care of our great Americans with pre-existing conditions.”

“If you don’t have borders, you don’t have a country. Folks, you don’t have a country,” Trump says before saying Senate Democrats support the “open-borders bill” written by the “leaking Dianne Feinstein.”

7:55 PM: Trump says Kobach is a “tireless fighter for border security” and he will “protect your family.”

7:45 PM: Trump jokes that he would love to bring Kobach into his administration if he loses. He now introduces Kobach.

Kobach says “welcome to Trump country” before adding that it is an “honor and blessing” to have Trump in the city he grew up in… immediately mentions he is proud to have worked with Trump in “stopping illegal immigration.” Crowd chanting “build that wall.”

“I’m so glad that America has a president that gets it and knows that illegal means illegal,” Kobach says.

People have been lined up since early this morning for our rally tonight with President Trump in Topeka. Looking forward for all of us to give him a warm welcome to Kansas! #ksleg #ksgov pic.twitter.com/dQi69s0uQo — Kris W. Kobach (@KrisKobach1787) October 6, 2018

Kobach says all of the 9/11 hijackers came into the country legally and he will not let anyone use the immigration system as a weapon against America. He says he hopes sanctuary cities will end when he becomes governor. He says his opponent supports giving tax-payer dollars to illegal aliens while regular people in Kansas are having a tough time paying bills. “It’s time to put Kansans first, not illegal aliens,” Kobach says.

Kobach talking about election fraud and says Democrats do not care about the votes of citizens being canceled out by illegal aliens who vote.

TRUMP: “You don’t hand matches to an arsonist. And you don’t give power to an angry left-wing mob, and that’s what they’ve become. The Democrats have become too extreme and too dangerous to govern. Republicans believe in the rule of law–not the rule of the mob.”
