The 90-degree heat was already bearing down on me at noon in the parking lot across the street from the Butler Farm Show grounds. The last time I parked here, I watched a cow lick corn out of my then 2-year-old son’s hand. This time, I was here to work.
The first person I interviewed had parked her car next to mine and told me this was going to be her second rally for Donald Trump. Her first was on Jan. 6, 2021.
She didn’t realize that her first Trump rally had ended in political violence until later.
“We started hearing that there was some kind of kerfuffle inside and that a woman had got shot,” she said. “I was driving home before I found out people had even gone in the building.”
