15. Makes no sense.

Asheville is hostile territory for Trump. Sure, he's got true believers in the surrounding communities, but the population is relatively sparse.

The volume of Trump's voters are in eastern NC. When I opened this OP I was expecting to hear it was Wilmington.

This makes no sense. Even if he's hoping to draw people from TN and SC for this event - and MAGATs there don't really want to go to Asheville - he's already got those states.

If this is an effort to help Mark Robinson, again, the location makes no sense.

Edit: I thought of something. The Obamas love Asheville. They visit there often, from the time he was president and after. If Donnie's campaign is based on going to all the places Obama went, his campaign is in deep trouble.
