Perry crowd gathers for Donald Trump rally

President Donald Trump is hosting a campaign rally in Perry, Georgia tonight. Huge crowds have gathered there to hear the president speak in less than an hour. Good evening and thank you for joining us for Fox 5 News at 6. I'm Rob DiRienzo. Eric Perry has the weekend off. The president's visit comes as Republicans look to mobilize voters ahead of the midterm election on November 3rd. Fox 5's Tara Jabbour is live at the rally, waiting on the president right now. Tara, what is the energy in the room like right now? That's all right. yeah rob there is obviously a lot of people here waiting of course to see president donald trump who we're expecting to hear from here within the next hour now people started speaking about a half hour ago we've heard from various people who are talking about just the republican party and their goals for this upcoming election the president of course coming here into georgia to support rick jackson and mike collins we saw a line of people waiting to get inside the venue you here earlier this afternoon. We got a chance to speak with some of those people who told us they're excited to see the president here in Georgia. Now, this is the president's second stop in Georgia in the last couple of weeks. Now, the people we spoke to say they just wanted the chance to see the president speak in person. Let's take a listen on what they had to say. Just see him speak. I respect him really much as a person. I know a lot of people don't, and like those other people, but the thing is I see him as a businessman and he's just using the country as a business, and I think it's amazing. And again, the president is expected to speak here tonight at 7. We'll, of course, have a summary later tonight on Fox 5 News. But for now, reporting live in Perry, Tara Jabbour, Fox 5 News.
