Yep, they don't want people out wandering around the high ground vantage points during the presidential library ceremonies in July. Especially with not just Trump and Vance being around, but thousands of other invited dignitaries.

Unless you're in the mood for crowds and security like most have rarely seen, I'd avoid Medora in early July.

Blocking it off now seems a bit excessive, unless one really believes a lone assassin is willing to hide out there for a couple of weeks.

I dislike crowds for the last 50 years.

Anything is possible. There are many groups and individuals that hate Trump.

HA!! Good luck with that!

Thats a big area with lots of places to hide. If one knew what they were doing, staying hid is very possible.

Nobody cares enough….😂😂

There will have drones in the air a day or two before Trump gets there. And at night they better get underground or there will be a big heat signature.

Turns out mrs johnr and I have tickets for President Trumps speech on Wednesday the 1st. One must shuttle in from the Fryberg exit, as they are not letting traffic in for other than locals and business owners. Should be epic.

Wait, you're one of the 40,000 invited dignitaries?

Who knew NDA royalty would make the cut? You enjoy the chaos, I'm going to be on the Toon most of that week.

I know nothing of that, what I do know is that mrs johnr lined us out to hear his speech at the burning hills amphitheater.

Neither of us, I believe anyway are even remotely close to being a dignitary, just way cooler than you other sonsabitches.

After I attend, I will be packing up the cooler and also heading to the lake for 5 days of debauchery.

My Wife and I also have tickets. I took my Dad to see him in 2016 at Scheels arena. We sat in line starting at 6am and were # 15 and 16 in line. And had seats less than 30 yds from the stage.
