Trump's MSG rally is going to be a doozy. [View all]

https://www.rawstory.com/insider/

Donald Trump is “obsessed” with his upcoming October 27 rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City, according to a confidant who spoke with The Bulwark on the condition of anonymity.

“[Trump] has just been obsessed with this for at least a year,” the source said, according to The Bulwark. “This is his campaign. So it’s happening.”

Trump, The Bulwark’s Marc Caputo reported, boasted to the confidant that he’s “gonna fill the Garden.”

“Headlining Madison Square Garden represents the fulfillment of a longtime dream for an outer-borough kid who always has a New York state of mind,” Caputo wrote Tuesday.

Who has a childhood dream about speaking in Madison Square Garden to adoring fans? A megalomaniac.
