“What really happened at Tulsa”
[In addition to the million bogus Tik-Tok reservations, and the Antifa-BLM Gantlet at the entry gates]
By an in-person attendee.
Here is how a corrupt convention center management team kills attendance at a Trump Rally. I was there and saw most of it first hand, followed by others tonight that never got past the Covid-19 temperature screeners.
1. The BOK Center holds at least 19,000. The area outside the convention center set up by the Secret Service and Tulsa PD had a U-shaped squeeze shoot to funnel the crowd down to an area about 50 feet wide and 600 feet long with an outdoor stage adjacent to the BOK entrance. Trump was supposed to be able to speak to the overflow group from this stage by Jumbotron TV screens.
2. Entry to this “Secure Area” [NOT the BOK center] was about 5 blocks away where you had to pass the Covid screeners who took your temperature, made you put on a face mask, and gave you a green band to proceed to Secret Service Security.
3. If the Covid temperature screeners left their post, then the entire entry to the BOK Trump rally was shut down.
4. And that is EXACTLY what happened today [Saturday June 20] about an hour after we got through security.
5. The BOK Center, just before the doors opened, had blocked off every other seat in the arena so the arena could only hold about 9500 people.
6. After continued back and forth with the Trump campaign, something happened to allow more people in [in groups of just 100 at a time]. We had to wait about 30 minutes each time for them to let just 100 of us trickle into the building. I am not talking about their security— we had already passed through metal detectors and everything. You could actually run into the building each time they would let just 100 of us in at a time, but that was just wrong and corrupt on BOK management’s part. They removed the stickers/every other seat rule - that is true, but only after they shut down all entry to the “event location”.
7. I looked over at the screening area and told my wife- something fishy is gong on- 2 hours before the rally - the screeners have left! I told her- no one can get to the stage/overflow area or the BOK center with the “temperature screeners” gone! It is like the people that collect tickets saying: “We are done, we are leaving.” You can’t get in!
8. They left their posts and from what I am learning- thousands could not get in to the first checkpoint because the Covid temperature screeners had to put green wrist bands on you for you to gain access to the Secret Service security checkpoint. No green band— no entry to the security check point.
9. I think the BOK Center management told the Covid screeners - “We have reached the capacity for what we are letting into the BOK center, so shut down- do not allow the other Trump supporters to get a temperature check, and no more green wrist bands. Do not issue green wrist bands so they can even get into the holding area to see the stage for the outdoor Trump Rally.”
10. It was all a setup to make it look like the crowds did not show up. The crowds DID show up, and after 5pm,- 2 hours before the event- no one was there to let them get to security.
11. With only about 3/4 of the building full, and no overflow crowd, then, CNN boasts that the rally was a flop. The only thing that was a flop was BOK Covid temperature screeners quit, left, and turned away thousands of attendees who never got to be near the rally.
This is pure political corruption at it’s finest. I was there— the super high energy crowd was there. They need to fire the BOK manager that oversaw this disaster. President Trump: we as the crowed tried, but with corrupt BOK management your crowd was downsized. We need a re-do without a crooked BOK building manager. On top of all that, even Uber was not accepting payments for any rides to the downtown area for the event.
I hope this backfires on all the crooks.
“You cannot both note the smaller crowd is a reflection of waning Trump support while at the same time saying, ‘’We did that!’’”
Leftists can. One of their superpowers is the ability to believe contradictory ideas simultaneously. They’re trans-rational.
Excellent analysis of the President’s rally.
Millions of people watched Trump’s Tulsa rally on TV and online. I’m guessing it was probably the most-watched US political rally ever.
How many could fit in Biden’s basement anyway?
