White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer was given a rock star welcome by supporters at Nashville’s Municipal Auditorium Wednesday evening at a rally being held by President Donald Trump.
Photos and reports by reporters at the rally show Spicer being swarmed by well-wishers as he ventured on to the floor of the arena to check in with the press before the rally. One reporter, Julie Davis with the New York Times, likened the reception for Spicer to a member of the Jonas Brothers rock band.

It is said that President Trump gets re-energized at his rallies by the enthused cheers of support from the thousands in attendance. Perhaps Spicer, who has been mocked by Saturday Night Live for his briefings and was videotaped being harassed by a liberal while shopping at an Apple store recently, will get a similar charge from the Nashville rally.
