• Starting review now. RoySmith (talk) 14:48, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
• Article is new enough (mainspace on July 25, Nominated July 29) and long enough (2312 characters readable prose).
• The two images appear to be appropriately licensed.
• Earwig uncovers no copyright issues.
• QPQ exempt.
• This is not strictly about a candidate, but it's probably close enough that WP:DYKELECT should apply if this doesn't get published soon enough.
• Raw Story is listed as "generally unreliable". Other than that, the sourcing looks fine. Unfortunately, that's one of the two sources used to support the ALT0 hook fact. The other source is a FEC filing, and I'm honestly unsure if that's acceptable or not; somebody who is better versed on WP:RS and who knows how to read these FEC filings should take a look. ALT1 looks to be properly souced and interesting, so let's go with that.
• I know this wasn't submitted with an image, but File:BikersForTrump1.RollingThunder.WDC.29May2016 (27672036472).jpg would be great on the main page, so I suggest we use that.
