I never met him, and he got up and started talking about Trump, Trump, Trump. “We have plenty of space here”, Trump said Friday as he pointed around the facility.

Lacey said crews evaluated the room on Thursday and decided about 1,500 people could safely fit in the room.
Trump launched a battle with the fire marshal, claiming he “must be a Hillary supporter” because the marshal would not allow additional people in because of capacity concerns. She has blasted Trump for making so many of his products overseas, and for alienating women, Hispanics and Muslims.
“You can’t forget that Hillary Clinton is a player as well, and she’s an very bad candidate”.
Trump said that a vote for Clinton would only be a continuation of President Barack Obama’s term.
He added, “Hey, maybe they’re a Hillary person”. Could that be possible?
But Donald Trump seemed to pick the wrong guy to pick on. As the Gazette reported, he received the honor in February at a ceremony that drew 350 people. He stated that Lacey was “probably a Democrat” who didn’t know what he was doing.
To show his thanks, Donald Trump later publicly criticized the Colorado Springs fire marshal. “We are going to make America great again”. “We’re going to beat her on November 8th”.
Even at the end of his speech, Trump continued his assault on Lacey. Their son was killed in Afghanistan in the US military, he pulled out the constitution and said Donald Trump, and you should read this? “He’s probably a guy that doesn’t get it”. He went on to say, “You know what, I’m starting to agree with you!”
Tuchman: “How did you know that it was a joke?”
“I was talking about her nose”, Trump said in Colorado Springs.
“I’m taking the gloves off. Take the gloves off. Right?”
“I would like to congratulate my Republican opponent for having something that nobody has ever done in the history of politics in this nation”.
This attitude stands in contrast to a letter signed by some 115 UCCS professors expressing disapproval of Trump’s visit on campus, stating they object to his rhetoric and accusing him of fueling fear of minorities.
After months of insisting that Clinton was “guilty as hell”, Trump argued in June that Clinton should “go to jail” over her email use, which Trump and Republicans allege may have compromised national security.

Soon afterward, Trump appeared at a rally at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, where he blasted the local fire marshal for not allowing more people into the venue.
