If u have been watching the interviews..see CNN ..with the attendees..many been camping out for a week or so..estimated the 20,000 in the venue..80,000 outside...shows this man who we for the most part on this little site vilify as evil incarnate..reelection impossible, a Biden victory a slam dunk...this Tulsa episode shows to beat a incumbent , especially a sitting POTUS, anything BUT a slam dunk..with or with out a tell all book from a charector like Bolton...
This man has very, very loyal followers...Don't try and understand them..just listening to them as they explain their loyalty is enough to blow ones mind..just understand there is no swaying them...
Thus in my mind, this Tulsa get together is a wake up call if looked at positively as to how hard it will be to unseat the man...remember..it's not about popularity...all about electorial...

I'm sure he's trying to make himself look popular. But, imagine how many are being bussed in from out of state.
He's P.T. Barnum, remember? He knows only how to put on a show, but sadly, nothing on how to run a country.

They canceled Trump's and Pence's speeches to the overflow crowd because... there was no overflow crowd! Looking at live video shortly before the event began showed that much of the upper tier of seats were empty. I doubt that the arena is more than 1/2 full. Pathetic.

The smart ones are respecting the virus and staying home.
The AZ opening is showing what a pandemic continues to look like. Mandatory face masks. Hospitals in the state nearly full.

Hmm, when I was watching earlier they said Trump was no longer going to give a speech prior to the main event, I was wondering why that was. |

So did the teens really want to attend, or did they organize and request a bunch of tickets so that they could be massive no shows and create a bunch of empty seats? I know what my smart ass son would have done, if he was still a teenager. (I don't know where he gets that from  ) |

They showed that people were filtering in and not full. If there were 80k outside there would be overflow, it only holds 19,000 people.
they are blaming protestors and people getting in the way so his supporters can't get in. If that were true they would be fighting and shooting people.
I'm sure many are concerned about the virus. they showed a woman waiting with a newborn baby to go in. I would NEVER take one like that, or any child to any mass event right now.

trump is joking and referring Covid-19 to his adoring fans as 'Kung Flu'.
Where's the respect for the sick and the dead.

Trump lied about masks, saying that the CDC said they made things worse.
they didn't say that. initially they said they were ineffective. now they say they are essential equipment.
that is called science. look it up. I swear!

I just did the math for that rally.
the active caseload for OK is 2200. there are 4M people that live there. 3M are adults. and since almost no kids have the disease, the subject population is undoubtedly adults.
assuming the attendance has similar numbers to OK, you can assume that if all active cases were out there in public, 15 of them would be at the Trump Circus. my calculations indicate about 7x the number of unconfirmed to confirmed cases. that would say that there were upwards of 100 people there with the virus.
how many do you think his little rally will kill?

Just blathering jingoistic bullshit served to the morons in his cult of personality. Like this: 6:36 PM: Eric Trump shares a QAnon meme on Instagram Eric Trump, the president’s 36-year-old son, on Saturday took to Instagram to drum up support for his father’s Tulsa rally by posting a meme that referred to the QAnon conspiracy theory. He deleted the post a short time later. Its meaning was not subtle. “Who’s ready for the Trump Rally tonight?” read the text, set against a giant “Q” and an American flag. It also included the rallying cry “WWG1WGA,” which is a popular tag for QAnon posts. It refers to the motto, “Where we go one, we go all.” The theory, which has moved from the far reaches of the online image board 4chan to the heart of Trump’s base, holds that the president is battling a secret plot involving the deep state, Democrats and child sex traffickers. Its adherents believe someone using the name Q — in reference to the top security clearance — is feeding them intelligence. www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/live-updates-trump-blames-media-and-protesters-for-empty-seats-says-he-ordered-slower-coronavirus-testing/ar-BB15Kvbw?ocid=spartanntp |

Watching CNN recap trump's less than advertised populated rally tonight, I see a number of blonde women in the stands right behind him.
What is up with that?

I just watched a quick sweep of the stands behind him on TV. He probably stacked those seats himself. I noticed Latino women signs and two token black women. You don't expect a sea of his male buddies behind him do you? |

I'm pretty sure we will get a Cocoa Beach, Florida Proboards update here tomorrow about the massive turnout in Tulsa and how there were 60,000 trumpers in the arena and another 350,000 in the spillover venues cheering "trump, trump, trump, forever!"

Yes, not because they don't want to die or kill others by spreading a serious disease. Narcissist. |

Yes, not because they don't want to die or kill others by spreading a serious disease. Narcissist. Its an all about Trump world... I wonder if part of it is it hurts one of his current branding efforts. China wears masks. This virus hasn't been the first time we've seen images of Chinese people in masks. I wonder if his China purveyor of virus story requires MAGA's mask free. Hmmmm. Anyone get the start of the clip of DT claiming he saved hundreds of thousands of lives? Is it supposed to be about the virus? |

I read about 9000 people showed up. Heads will roll, campaign manager and likely a bunch more will quit or get fired.

Article that covers and explains the disappointing attendance...They tried to explain the why of the poor showing, blaming anti trump agitators who blocked the screening machines, bad reporting by the "fake news" media...but I am sure some heads will roll as he travels back to DC...his people were claiming over a million tried to get tickets and this is a very deep red state that he crushed Hillery in 2016.. ================================== www.yahoo.com/news/trump-back-in-rally-form-in-tulsa-but-the-promised-crowd-doesnt-show-014255164.html |

Just heard on CNN a guest commentator..{don't ask name , didn't catch it} mentioned that historians down the road , say 10 to 50 years down the road , in examining the results of Trumps lack of actions or poor administrations of proper care to limit effects of the virus....there may be tens of thousands of deaths in our country alone... |
