Trump just changed the date to the 20th.
Just saw it.....
...really surprised
We had previously scheduled our #MAGA Rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, for June 19th a big deal. Unfortunately, however, this would fall on the Juneteenth Holiday. Many of my African American friends and supporters have reached out to suggest that we consider changing the date out...

...of respect for this Holiday, and in observance of this important occasion and all that it represents. I have therefore decided to move our rally to Saturday, June 20th, in order to honor their requests...

No venue except an open field can hold that number. The largest permanent seating on earth is the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with maybe a quarter of million seats.
I really dont get this
Couldnt Juneteenth be celebrated at the rally?
The thing is, I’m really not opposed to the idea of having a holiday to celebrate the end of slavery. Frankly should have been done years ago, but I just hate that it came from this nonsense.
Why would he set himself up? If anything, he'll say no more lock downs at this time. Simple truth.
It should be pointed out the Republican Party ended slavery in the US. A Trump rally couldnt be more fitting on that day.
agree-outdoor rallies would be way to go-might need increased security though or bullet proof glass around Trump
True, but in the summertime, it is too hot for many outdoor locations and in hangar - those people would literally cook waiting for Trump for hours.
OMG 300,000 WOW!!!!!
I hope that Dems are not playing games getting tickets s his supporters cant get them!!!
But, but . . . Trump’s way behind Biden in the polls. I don’t get it.

Ping to Seek and find’s link citing 300,000 people applied for tickets to Tulsa Trump rally, to be held on June 20th.
Why not a 70,000 seat football stadium?
No, No more lockdowns period! This hoax has destroyed enough lives!
Did you lose your business, job, or home? Some did! This shutdown should’ve never happened, and Trump needs to assure Americans it will NOT happen again!
Record at Indi was 350,000.
For total crowd which would include a lot of the infield right? From what I understand the speedway never gives out official crowd counts so its always an estimate by the press or someone. As I said actual permanent seats is above 200k but I’m not sure the exact number.
