Trump organizers went ballistic. Rarely have I heard curse words used so effectively as they were by a Trump volunteer festooned in a "47" blue jacket. "You're out of your fuckin' mind," he shouted at Tuerk, who looked very much like a Pee Wee Herman doppleganger, right down to the gray suit and sneakers. "You tried to pull some fake shit on the permits," he shouted, as Pee Wee tried to ignore him.
"You said we could close the entire intersection," Blue 47 shouted. "Then the day of you show up in a fresh suit with all your cameras trying to show like you're big and strong and you can shut this down?"
If that was his intention, he failed. But he did manage to make an ass out of himself. Pee Wee would go on to tell The Morning Call that he was simply trying to ensure that Lehigh County voters could make it to the elections office for ballot by demand. But I smell bullshit. He opened the intersection to traffic and ensured that a food truck was cited.
While I hope Trump loses on election day, Blue 47 should be our next Secretary of Defense.

That ridiculous scene was initiated by the Allentown Mayor. He should have known better than to put himself into such into such a potentially hot confrontation in full public view. Cameras, hidden microphones, are everywhere these days. There is no question the Mayor made a huge mistake here. I know he will regret this incident for years to come.
As a Trump supporter (or should I have said cultist?) I was disappointed in the behavior of the TRUMP 47 worker. I’m sure he worked hard for a couple days setting that all up, was tired, and had a short fuse, but his verbal attack was way over the top and needs to be criticized, too. I couldn’t believe what I was watching.
OMG PeeWee. Now I can’t unsee it
Tuerk says that video was "disinformation". Any other spin on this is just not correct and I suppose the media is to blame for how he acted through it all??
Allentown mayor says viral video of disagreement with Trump staffer "misinterpreted".
That is why I voted for O'Connell
What a Tuerky.
A friend sent me that clip. The dude was going off in Pee Wee lol. Pee Wee looked befuddled. I think this Pee Wee name is going to stick it fits him perfectly!
That guy was a big dude. Little Pee Wee is lucky he didn’t drop him. He clearly was in no mood for petty bullshit like that. This is what’s wrong with our politics today. There are no adults in the room on either side.
Perhaps the mayor was in the wrong, but the other guy’s profane hissy fit made a mayor I think a fool look and sound reasonable.
Please tell me this do nothing clown won’t be reelected .
Pee Wee Tuerk brought discredit to the City of Allentown, his office, and himself. Discredit to him is the least concern. However the person setting up the bicycle barriers was completely correct on Pee Wee showing up with his cameras trying to look like a big shot. Pee Wee Tuerk should have welcomed the attention the rally brought to Allentown. Heis an embarassment to Allentown.
I thought Tuerk missed a chance to put politics aside and be a good ambassador of the City. I supported him in the 2021 Democratic Primary, but I've been somewhat disappointed with his partisan demeanor, his sensitivity/thin skin and his blatant abuse of public entitlements (fancy car, junkets). That said, he's done less damage than other recent Democrat Mayors. If the Democrats run other qualified candidates in 2025, I could be on board for a new Mayor.
He had the food truck cited because it was infringing on his kitten pitence from 7th's and reillyvilles vendors. Some of those places should have the orange tag unfit for human habitation let alone food sales.
Over 7 million views. Matt Twerp is a national celebrity ..... for being an asshole! It's delicious.
He claimed he was never contacted about it or invited to any planning meetings, yet his own communications director posted that street closing to the news outlets over an hour before this recording began.
A true beta male in the wild...
Allentown wonders why its such a crap whole when only 10% show up to vote...
12:35: A few points:
1). No hidden cameras captured what happened. The Mayor was well aware of the camera (looking directly at it several times) and I believe the video was taken by someone from his camp.
2). I doubt Tuerk will regret this. He is another self-serving politician who is only interested about his own publicity. He cares little about the embarrassment he caused the city. I have relatives out of state who saw this (on their own) and called up laughing at me for living here. I can only imagine the impression it left on individuals and businesses thinking about visiting or relocating here.
3). I thought the worker (Blue 47) was very restrained. He was working in the dark in the middle of a roadway that had been closed off to traffic. The mayor opened the barriers and allowed traffic up into the area where the man was working. He could have been killed. I think Blue 47 would have been justified in pummeling the mayor for that alone.
4). It’s interesting that the mayor is willing to open a traffic barrier on a worker working in the dark, while acting upset when other pedestrians are hit by vehicles in the city. He could have gotten the worker killed, and the incident further exposed him for the phony that he is.
I love how you are disappointed in the Trump 47 worker but you give Trump himself a pass for his daily verbal diarrhea of lies and offensive, sexist, racist, vulgar, incoherent rants. But it's like you said.... You're in a cult.
I was going to comment, but 12:35 already covered the points I hoped to make. The Trump 47 worker comes off as a disrespectful bully. Tuerk comes of as uninformed.

The Blue 47 worker it's just your typical angry uneducated Trump supporter. I wonder what kind of work he does, if any, when it's not election season?

Gosh, no broad brush, unsupported smears there!
Tuerk is the biggest buffoon in the LV- what an embarrassment!
Between Tuerk's nose & ears, Pee Wee was much better looking!
How refreshing- you didn't bash Trump for the 1st time in years! BTW, Nate Hyman has to run in '25 to save Allentown- this guy is a clown!!
This guy is another in a long list of our terrible politicians: Emrick, Wild, Boscola, Casey,etc.
Unless I am missing something, the Mayor is lying when he said he was only concerned that people could get to the voter registration office...the confrontation appears to have occurred when it was dark out, meaning it was past the 5 pm closing time of the office
This post is about Allentown's Mayor and his bizarre antics on the night of Trump's rally there. Comments that stray from those topics will not be published.
9:01, He missed his calling. He should be a drill SGT, lol.
Is there a place that I can report a Bethlehem Twp commissioner out on $10,000 bail?
This display will make excellent campaign material for the assured winner of Tuerk's next (and last) mayoral run. Do you think he showed which party is actually "garbage"?
Your topics suck fake blog
What a dickhead move by a partisan hack. He not only embarrassed himself, but the residents as well. Let freedom ring!
P.S. I'm a never trumper too but this is bush league BS.
I’m incredibly disappointed. Allentown is NOT doing well, and the Mayor pulls this? Horrible.
I know there are nay sayers, but Bethlehem is looking pretty good and Willie is doing at least a passable job. I know there are nay sayers, but Panto has Easton moving in the right direction. This guy? This is just bad for Allentown.
Maybe Tuerk should drive a Garbage truck when is term is over.
Where is RAY when we need him.
You're my boy Blue! This was a scumbag move from a weasel of a Mayor. I take it that is why he is in politics. Blue had every right to be upset, not only at the weasel for clearly lieing but also at the weasel for simply putting peoples lives in danger. I hope he does not treat his workers like this.
Another reason to vote this idiot out in '25- what an embarrassment!
Every time "Pee Wee" opens his mouth, he embarrasses himself.
Very kind of you to say, 8:27 AM! Do you have any other wisdom left to share?

the goof did look like Pee Wee that day, normally he looks exactly like Alfred E Nueman!
Both are chuckleheads. Mayor Hipster and the Foul-Mouthed Minion should take their infantile act on the road. Two losers who would probably make a nice chunk of change.
Bernie, You need to do a Foia on Pee Wee's coms and find out who he was conspiring with
Where is Nat when we need him?
You’d be better off sticking to the topic as well … by not commenting on his appearance & focusing on his errors.
Throwing everyone on a pile and saying they all suck is akin to throwing the baby out with the bath water.
The biggest lie of the whole video is that Tuerk was somehow standing up for the voters who might be voting at the LC Government Center the next day.
Only a total moron would think that the Secret Service would leave either 7th Street or Hamilton Street (adjacent to the arena) open on the day of the rally, something that surely was discussed with the city (and the Mayor) in advance. Thus there was no way that ANY private vehicle was making it to the Government Center for voting that day.
So the mayor is caught in another lie trying to excuse his behavior, and looks like an even bigger buffoon for thinking his residents would believe it.
I frickin love this. I’m all for any Trump organized event falling on its face, and “Jacket 47” making a mockery as the organizer is chefs kiss. I’m so glad it’s gonna be a blowout for Kamala.
I can’t wait to come back on this blog on Wednesday and hear all the same ole tired excuses of a stolen election. I can’t frickin wait Bernie!!! I love this for them.
I would email the Board of Commissioners. Their contact information is on the website:

Why do all Allentown mayors make screwballs of themselves.
More like Tuerkemada. "Let's face it, you can't Tuerkemada anything!"
Let's hear him sing: "The Inquisition, let's begin. The Inquisition, look out sin".
Bernie I'm surprised that you would feed into the insulting reference to Allentown Mayor Tuerk as Pee Wee Herman. I would think that you would be a voice of reason. Everyone has a right to their opinion and this election has been a particularly nasty endeavor for the electorate. Someone has to be the impartial moderator of his own blog.
Really he looked like a cross between little lord fontanlaroe and peewee with a pawlowskis mouth vying for a state seat!
No he needs to get back to his pencil wagon of his youth traveling in the circus carnival sideshows this like all local politician's excluding none.
Well the story made it to Fox news
Mayor Tuerk apparently had the opportunity to graciously welcome thousands to Allentown for this event. These now national videos of him have brought Allentown into an entirely negative light. Sad.
Easton is the only city with a competent Mayor.
Tuerk is an embarrassment!
5:03 - If you look like Pee Wee Herman, dress like Pee Wee Herman, ride a bike around like Pee Wee Herman, and then act like a doofus like Pee Wee Herman, guess what?
You’re going to be called Mayor Pee Wee.
He earned the name, and everyone should hum the song “Tequila” whenever he walks by.
Pee Wee wonders why he got a vote of "No Confidence" from city council. Hopefully the voters next year follow suit- this guy is a shit-show, in way over his head!
