“Trump said there are 31,000 inside, and thousands more outside the venue.”
Was there. It holds 8900 and was full inside. Do not know how many outside, since I was inside.
Understood. I didn’t have time to fact-check him; I just typed what he said. They probably had 31,000 sign up for tickets, since you have to sign up ahead of time via Trump’s website to get tickets. There are almost always more tickets reserved than room for people in the venues for Trump’s rallies.
Last night LA news stations were saying about 8,000 total at the Trump rally, inside plus outside. Who knows...
“Last night LA news stations were saying about 8,000 total at the Trump rally, inside plus outside. Who knows...”
As Mr. Trump would say “A lot!!”
The venue holds 7900 or so. There was one aerial photo, showing the amphitheater nearly full, and “a lot” more outside.
The attendees were 100% non-violent, perfectly mannered.
Outside was apparently another sad story. I take major offense towards anybody that attacks my right of free speech (or to hear), or interferes with my political choices.
The violence outside went even beyond the attendees, to throwing rocks at vehicles on freeway ramps; people coming home from work not involved with the rally.
And setting fires, tipping police vehicle over, etc.
I feel all the violence should be very serious felonies, but my guess is some of the hugs were minors, even adults will be charged with only misdemeanors.
“The violence outside went even beyond the attendees, to throwing rocks at vehicles on freeway ramps; people coming home from work not involved with the rally. And setting fires, tipping police vehicle over, etc.”
Standard latino thug behavior, from Jeb and Dubya’s favorite lawbreakers.
