The press dutifully covered it from beginning to end as they like to do and contrary to what Trump says every day on the stump, they panned out to show that he had filled up a very large space with thousands and thousands of ecstatic supporters. </span></span></p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 15px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; list-style: none; line-height: 1.5rem; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-size: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial;"><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">It was a bit surprising to see signs which said “Thank you Lord Jesus for President Trump” and even more startling to hear <span style="box-sizing: inherit; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-size: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial;">people in the crowd yelling “White Power.”</span> Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions appeared at the rally and Trump handed him a “Make America Great Again” hat. At the time, most people thought it was just one more wacky moment in the early days of the crazy primary campaign that we’d all laugh about later</span></span></p> <p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 15px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; list-style: none; line-height: 1.5rem; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-size: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.5rem;">Nobody’s laughing today.  Donald Trump is the undisputed frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination. He held another gigantic rally in Alabama yesterday and Senator Jeff Sessions appeared onstage again, this time to officially endorse his candidacy. </span><font face="arial, helvetica,
