Trump Wades Into Small Town’s Pledge Controversy

CBS News Minneapolis reports:

The St. Louis Park City Council is revisiting its decision to remove the Pledge of Allegiance from its meetings. Five council members voted to drop the pledge last month. Since then, people across the community and country have responded.

Public input was not supposed to be part of Monday evening’s session, but as the mayor and council attempted to revisit the issue they were often interrupted by a packed and heated room. Many recited the Pledge of Allegiance as council members tried to speak.

Trump doesn’t really care if some town nobody’s ever heard of doesn’t say the pledge at city council meetings. But the story is raw red meat for his cultists.

Outrage is growing in the Great State of Minnesota where our Patriots are now having to fight for the right to say the Pledge of Allegiance. I will be fighting with you! @foxandfriends
