Pretty much, yeah.  One of Jane Doe's attorneys was Lisa Bloom, Gloria Allred's daughter.  As far as I know, Ms. Bloom is "for real" and seemingly would not be involved in a lawsuit that couldn't be proven, even if it was a long shot.  She is, however, a pretty big attention horse, so you kind of never know.  And, there's quite a few reasons a lawsuit is voluntarily dismissed, but one of them is that the allegations are false or highly unlikely to be proven.

Or maybe (and surely this could never happen?) someone got paid off to keep it quiet?

• President Donald Trump once said, “Black people are too stupid to vote for me,” and suggested that all countries run by blacks are “s---holes,” Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen says in a new interview.
• Also in the Vanity Fair sitdown, Cohen recalled Trump saying, “There’s no way I can let this black f-g win,” when referring to a black contestant on the reality show “The Apprentice.”
• “Only the blacks could live like this,” Trump once allegedly told Cohen when they were driving through a rough neighborhood in Chicago.

And then he motorcades from Chicago to Milwaukee?   That's gonna fuck up traffic something fierce.   Bwahahahahaha.

[YGIFS 19449]

Well you see, at least it's a reverse commute.  I doubt he wants to attend anything other than his acceptance speech, but he does have some glad-handing to do with other RNC leadership and donors to keep the grift train running.  But yeah, his plane is too big to take off from anywhere but O'Hare and Midway.  So it's straight up I-94 to Milwaukee.  That's nearly 100 miles, that's a long ass way for a motorcade to block off dozens and dozens of on-ramps, block lanes, periodically halt oncoming traffic in sections where the highway isn't that sufficiently divided (it's a very wide highway with large divides for most of the trip but it gets narrower and not as spaced from about Gurnee to the Kenosha/Racine area).  4 business days, of which, he'll probably travel up there 3 days.  Probably midday, but still a shitshow.  He won't be coming back until late at night, 11pm or so, which won't present much of an issue heading back into downtown Chicago.  But those 3-4 days of him heading up there are cause all kinds of logistical challenges and piss off a lot of potential voters in SE Wisconsin.  

I mean, if he had Marine 1 or something else, that'd be one thing.  But they can't fly a fixed wing plane up there.  It's gotta be done with a motorcade which has to stop at the Illinois border and switch over to Wisconsin state troopers alongside his own detail.  And then resume the trip.  There's gotta be several dozen overpasses of major roads that will also have to be closed and cleared for that 100 mile stretch.  And unlike our on/off ramps, many of which are elevated in Texas, in IL/WI---they are cloverleaf style for the most part due to freezing temps.  So they are more linear feet (I don't know the calculus of it).  So there's gonna be several dozen of those that need to be sealed off but because of their length (~3x the amount of footprint than an elevated ramp), that's more personnel needed to keep not only the ramp blocked but also the circle of land inside of it to the shoulder which will need to be patrolled for anybody hiding in those tall summer grasses.  Once he gets past National Avenue/59, kinda where 'downtown Milwaukee' starts, it's business as usual for Secret Service...just another city visit for a President/former President, something they've done in their sleep hundreds of times.  

But given the layout of I-94, duration of the drive, and volume of cars on a weekday on both sides of the highway...it'll take several hundred troopers from both Illinois and Wisconsin to secure that route at several hours apiece.  Never mind what it costs the drivers who are not at work but stuck in traffic and the retail along the way that nobody can access (halfway thru the trip is a Six Flags amusement park and one of the 5 largest malls in the U.S., plus all the other gas stations and restaurants that will be shut off from traffic for what could be hours).  Total expenditures and lost revenue of all of the above could total hundreds of thousands per day, millions over the course of the week.  So his hotel can make a few bucks on 9 rooms on the Chicago River.

You wanna get conspiratorial?  I'm obviously insane, but thankfully not Qanon type insane.  

It's not as common a practice in Texas to refer to interstates by names as opposed to numbers.  In Chicago, We would say "The Eisenhower" for I-290, or "The Tri-State" for I-294.  Somewhat similar how California calls it "THE 101" or "THE 5" (Stuart!).  Well one of the main interstates to get into downtown Chicago, not far from Trump's Hotel is "The Stevenson" or I-55.  Named for the former Governor Adlai Stevenson, who would go on to serve as Kennedy's Ambassador to the UN.  He was in Dallas the month before and he and his staff treated so horribly, he warned the Kennedy detail not to go to Dallas that fateful week.  If you take "The Stevenson/IH-55" into the city, it links up with I-90 where you would exit into the CBD to get to the Trump Hotel of all places.  We refer to that I-90 stretch locally as "the Kennedy Expressway."  From the Kennedy, if you're headed to Milwaukee---you merge right to I-94 (portions of which are named for Kennedy, Edens, Byrne, and other local figures).  From there it's about 70-80 miles to the arena. 

Not only are there major overpasses and vast swatches of cloverleaf entrances/exits on the way to Milwaukee.  There are also a handful of, what we call "Oasis", which are purpose-built overhangs above the surface lanes.  They usually contain restaurants, fuel stations, dog walking areas, playscapes, areas for truckers to rest, etc.  You can cross over them by automobile, but it's effectively a giant parking lot, they aren't really intended for turnarounds....more for rest and refreshment.  Think of a size like a TXDoT rest stop or a Buccee's but built above and across 10 lanes, heated from underneath.  Everyone of those from the Stevenson to the Kennedy to 94 to Milwaukee will be to be cleared twice a day for a week.   Nobody can penetrate the motorcade from up there, but they all serve delicious fast-food and will serve as Sirens of Temptation to the Donald.  Wouldn't be hard to figure out what he's gonna order.  And then the toll plazas.  Think of the ones like on the new 183 or 130.  The ones on I-94 are even bigger and covered to protect booth operators from the winter elements.  There's a handful of them from the Kennedy to Milwaukee.  It will create a huge bottleneck for the motorcade.  Obviously they can glide through for free, but still, you can only push through a handful of vehicles/motorcycles at a time at a very slow speed because while Trump's parade of vehicles is tough as shit, those toll booth barricades have been sustaining collisions from 80,000 pound tractor-trailers and 95,000 tandem tractor-trailers for 75 years.  So they have to line up slowly and take their time before they can open the speed back up again.  

anyway, just some fun facts about the Tri-state area interstate system y'all might now know.

Thats the problem, motorcade mileage to ORD and from MKE is 30 miles in total, 1/3rd of just driving the whole trip.  Shutting down one of America's 3 busiest airports (when you take into account cargo jets) twice a day for to better part of a week during summer travel season.  That's next to impossible even for a current President. 

The nearby Executive Airport north of downtown cannot accommodate a 757 on its runway system.  The outlier airports like Rockford or South Bend likely could, but they're almost as far as Milwaukee by motorcade.  There are no military airstrips anywhere nearby that would cut commute times and prevent commercial disruption.  And even if there are, would they even permit his private plane to use their airfield?  I suppose he could fly into O'hare and then downsize to some local friend's private plane but Secret Service would have their hands full trying to make that work because of safety issues, taxiing, and still ground transport at a smaller FBO where security is much more relaxed.  There is no recent precedent for this detail to work from.  An incumbent gets to use military and/or commercial runways on full lockdown.  He can't do that.  A challenger to a sitting President usually has a private full-sized aircraft and local police escorts.  But for 200 miles round-trip for several days in a row between two major urban MSA's.  That's never been done before in their history.  There are more variables than we can possibly fathom.   

They can certainly fly into MKE in his 757 and just move him securely to a Milwaukee hotel once and back.  But to shut down O'Hare twice a day for an hour during the business week/summer break for 4-6 days?  They wouldn't do that for 1980's Reagan, and he was from Illinois.  Great Lakes Naval Air Station and Miegs Field could have accommodated him, but both have been closed for 20 years.  it's the historically ironic path of the Stevenson/Kennedy to I-94 path or nothing.  Surface roads pose an ever greater risk to the motorcade (nevermind that guy can't sit in a car for 3 hours without shitting himself).  The logistics and exposure are going to be a massive challenge the SS is not used to, particularly twice a day for 4-6 days.  A helicopter is out of the question, too much air traffic in that area and none of the available equipment is exactly Marine 1 quality.  I suppose they could get a mid-sized jet to fly out Chicago Exec.  But you still have to clear MKE twice a day to land/take-off and given his security detail, VIP guests, and senior staffers..........even larger private jets couldn't accommodate that many people.  he sure as shit ain't flying commercial.  And his namesake livery bird isn't an option. 

I'm sure SS has a number of ideas on alternatives that don't occur to me, or us.  But we all live in the same physical confines of land and air.  If it were a single trip, it'd be a breeze.  But it could be upwards of 12 one-way trips.  That's hard to account for.  all for some room service surcharges.  Pride cometh before the fall.

RNC will rent him a Trump Force 2 Helicopter 

[YGIFS 19449]

Yeah, given all the security risks above...I'm starting to think he'll either take a heliport ride from somewhere in downtown Chicago paid for out of "legal fund" or some dumbass donor in Chicago will get him 2-3 jets (his group will need more than one) to leave from the Executive Airport just NW of downtown so they don't have to lockdown an FBO at ORD.  Much as Trump would open with, "Can you believe this?  They shut down O'Hare for me.  Never been done before.  Tremendous.  No cargo getting through, which is fine because it's all from Chyna...which is in bed with the corrupt Biden family.  So I'm actually delaying Chyna's takeover of our country.  I have no doubt he could arrange one round-trip, but he's gotta go glad-hand to keep the grift going.  So it's at least Monday-Thursday, with Sunday & Friday being distinct possibilities.  That's a long burn, even for Chicago.  

I'm hoping for the heliport option.  Because of Great Lakes Naval Station between the two large cities having priority, the ATC volume along the banks of Lake Michigan used as commercial queue for each, Rockford being a decent sized airport in between as well as some smaller strips in between.  Helicopter traffic is frequently routed through the Waukesha/Elkhorn/McHenry/NW Suburbs/Loop helipad corridor.  Coming back 4-5 nights in a row at midnight.  A boy can dream...
