Donald Trump held a rally in Monroe, Louisiana on Wednesday night and for the most part it was typical Trump.
The only new information was news that the dog that assisted in the mission that led to the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi will soon visit the White House.
“He’s coming to the White House very soon,” Trump said at the rally.
“I said, ‘bring him now,’ they said, ‘He’s on a mission.’ I said, ‘You gotta be kidding. Come on, give him couple of days rest, please,'” Trump added.
President Trump announces that Conan, the hero military dog that took down the leader of ISIS, is coming to the White House soon.

The dog, Conan, was injured in the U.S. mission that resulted in the ISIS leader’s death last month.
“You know who the real hero is, forget about Trump, the dog was the great hero, Conan,” Trump said Wednesday.
Thank you Daily Wire. Very cute recreation, but the “live” version of Conan will be leaving the Middle East for the White House sometime next week! https://t.co/Z1UfhxsSpT [4]

Trump had hinted that Conan would visit the White House last week when he quote-tweeted a photoshopped image he shared earlier in the day of him giving the dog the Medal of honor.
He also used the dog’s name in the tweet. The name had previously been classified.
Trump was in Louisiana to garner support for Republican Eddie Rispone, who is challenging Democratic incumbent John Bel Edwards in the state’s runoff gubernatorial election on Nov. 16.
Trump also seemed to dislike the heat in the auditorium, and spent a few minutes complaining about the heat, while sweating profusely…
