President Trump ripped former President Obama for never attending one of the boy scout events. The massive crowd, dressed in their official uniforms or group gear, began to shout, “We love Trump! We love Trump!…”
“Trump could not behaving more fun addressing this huge Scouts crowd,” tweeted Julie Bykowicz. “Lots of love both ways.”

BBC writes:
“The Jamboree of the Boy Scouts of America is held every four years and drew about 35,000 scouts from the ages of 12 to 18 to the latest event, held in Beaver, West Virginia, on Monday evening.”
“The Jamboree had issued a warning on its blog about being respectful. It read: “Chants of certain phrases heard during the campaign (e.g. ‘build the wall’, ‘lock her up’) are considered divisive by many members of our audience, and may cause unnecessary friction.”
“But in a rambling 35-minute speech, Mr Trump whipped up a response of boos, cheers, chants and jeers as he lambasted fake news, Hillary Clinton’s election campaign and President Obama’s failure to address a Jamboree in person.”

Tonight, we put aside all of the policy fights in Washington, D.C., you’ve been hearing about with the fake news and all of that,” Trump said at the Boy Scouts National Jamboree in West Virginia. “We’re going to put that aside. And instead we’re going to talk about success, about how all of you amazing young Scouts can achieve your dreams, what to think of, what I’ve been thinking about. You want to achieve your dreams, I said, who the hell wants to speak about politics when I’m in front of the Boy Scouts? Right?”
