NYP:
Former President Donald Trump will hold a campaign rally in the South Bronx next week, and his first major gathering of supporters in his native state since his first White House bid comes on the heels of a record-breaking event at the Jersey Shore.
The May 23 rally will take place at 6 p.m. in Crotona Park, and the Trump campaign has a permit for up to 3,500 people to attend, his campaign announced Friday.
Trump, 77, is expected to speak on the Empire State’s economy, crime rate and migrant crisis. It’s his first rally in his birth state since Buffalo in 2016. more
I hope that MAGA folks absolutely pack the place!
Not being familiar with the area, I looked at gMaps and found that Crotona Park is really accessible. It’s adjacent to the Cross-Bronx Expressway (that’s I-95) about a mile or so east of the Harlem River (separates Manhattan from the Bronx). Lots of ways for people from all over the region to get to the park. Lets hope that lots of people DO get to the park on the 23rd!
Here’s a street view from the Expwy if you’re interested.

“Lots of ways for people from all over the region to get to the park.”
We’ll be there!
We’ll be there too!
A Trump Rally wouldn’t be the same without the DOJ, FBI and CIA photoing participants.
Just smile like there’ll be a free and fair election.
cato – you don’t even need to be there! The DOJ, FBI and CIA just photoshop participants with AI now!
Trump plans on cheating the election!!!!!!
Demand voter ID now.
(sarc)

Nice! Do you know what I see there? A snipers paradise. That place looks tough to defend. I hope they have a plan.
A very dangerous neighborhood. Trump has balls!
May 23 6:01 PM. NY AG indicts Trump for exceeding permit capacity.
I hope they break 100K being there. I personally would not go unless I could carry.
that neighborhood is horrendous, basically the entire Bronx is an unflushed toilet. The throggs neck area is probably the only hood in the Bronx that is livable
Soon to be his new home. Aka Rikers right next store, then you all can claim, there goes the neighborhood.
