Not like I've seen the other ones or anything from them. But other than the With or Without You flub, everything seemed pretty well-oiled. Especially compared to other early tour shows I've seen in the Bay Area including Vertigo and I&E.
Red Hill Mining Town is the biggest fix needed. Just does not work...Miss Sarajevo is even less of a performance for the band now that the Pavarotti bit isn't sung by Bono.
As far as messing with Trump, I don't think Ultra Violet really does that. Exit does because a random film clip that talks about a hated Trump character building a wall is played right before it...also, Bono changed the Sunday Bloody Sunday line from "tv reality" to "reality tv" tonight and it's clearly an intentional jibe at The Apprentice.
But the political points are far more about bigger issues such as poverty and Syrian refugees and women's rights, that are a lot bigger than just some political figure like Trump. Bono even said tonight that change usually happens through movements instead (which is the truth).
